'Series A Startup Guide to Outsourcing Software Engineers in 2022' softwaredevelopment softwareoutsourcing
It has surely been a roller-coaster ride over the almost two years since the pandemic started. And what’s unique about this is that it was worldwide and, thus, has affected the entire world in a similar fashion. I’m sure you know best what’s going on around you, in particular, but I’d like to outline some basic aftermath.during the pandemic, with superpowers accelerated by huge investments and a generally new set of software products.
Of course, one could argue that I didn’t do my homework, and finding an engineer is relatively easy in the US. I can't agree more. But every company has its own situation. Time to market, cash available in the bank account, and competition make the game hot. We’ve seen companies, at different stages, outsourcing software and outsourcing software engineers to avoid competition for talent for certain projects or skills.
Who are the stakeholders of this project? Do they support using outsourcing services from third-party vendors? These are the people who can think through the criteria for vendors and would also help with assessment and approval. Someone also needs to champion the initiative. A tip here is: try talking to folks in the field, the outsourcing and outsourcing companies — you might get some great inputs.It is hard to imagine outsourcing software engineers from the US, as the original method was to outsource from overseas. And it’s not only price, although the prices are high. It’s more that companies in the US almost never offer outsourced engineers, as project-based development generates more revenue, due to the added value of industry or vertical knowledge.
While business etiquette and soft skills have had quite substantial improvements lately, a good tip for those looking to outsource from Asia is to find out whether or not you’ll have direct access to engineers with who you can communicate with. And it’s not just Asian outsourcing companies that only provide a PM who can speak English, we have seen the same thing in other locations too. “Body shops” are everywhere, but you need an enterprise-grade outsourcing partner.
There is almost no such thing as a definable good price. It’s unique for every company, but it’s good to know that the median price tag ranges somewhere between $35 and $75 per hour. At this level, you can have confidence that your outsourcing partner will deliver cost-effective, high-performing solutions.
Time Zone Overlap — Do you really check that all your US-based employees are online eight hours a day? It’s good to have engineers online all the time, but it’s not really that important. Work has shifted toward a result-oriented mode;. The rest doesn’t matter much. You may have a need for engineers to stay a bit longer on days of releases or something, but this is always discussed on the standup calls. The golden ratio is somewhere between two and four hours of work time overlap.
It’s good to have a special person or team responsible for onboarding. They should be in communication with new hires from their very first day, answering their questions, showing them around, and sending them interesting information. Developers don’t spend all their time writing code. They often use chats to learn important details, ask questions, and discuss issues. Their Slack activity can also answer your questions about what your developer is currently busy with.
