What We Offer
Talent Solutions
Embed our vetted engineers in your team on flexible fixed-term contracts — scale up, extend, or wind down as your roadmap demands.
02
Technical Vetting
Our proprietary assessment framework evaluates engineers beyond credentials — testing architectural thinking, code quality, and collaborative problem-solving before they ever reach your team.
03
Talent Pipeline
We maintain curated, pre-vetted pools of specialist talent ready for immediate engagement — eliminating the lag of reactive hiring when a critical role opens.
04
Senior & Leadership Hires
Senior engineers, architects, and technical leaders engaged on fixed-term contracts — for the moments when seniority and ownership matter most.
How We Work
From Brief to Onboarded
Step 01
Calibrate
Deep discovery with your leadership. We define the technical profile, the seniority, and the team fit — the exact engineer your roadmap needs, not a generic CV match.
Step 02
Vet
Multi-stage technical assessments, architectural design reviews, and structured interviews. Every engineer is stress-tested for how they think and collaborate before they reach your desk.
Step 03
Shortlist & Onboard
A curated shortlist of two to four exceptional engineers — never a volume dump. You interview, you choose, and billing starts only when your developer signs and begins.

Talent We've Placed
19 days. Zero production incidents. DevOps lead still in post 18 months later.
Senior DevOps Engineer Placement for a Scaling FinTech
A Series B FinTech growing from a 3-person infrastructure team to a full platform engineering function needed a senior DevOps engineer to own their AWS architecture and lead a monolith-to-microservices migration — without disrupting a live payment system. We mapped the market, ran structured technical assessments including live infrastructure design sessions, and delivered a shortlist of three pre-vetted candidates. The client hired within 19 days.
5 hires. 6 weeks. Zero replacements in 12 months.
Qualifying a Full-Stack Engineering Team for a Product Rebuild
A logistics platform rebuilding its core product from scratch needed five senior engineers simultaneously — each owning a distinct domain. Using our proprietary vetting framework, including architectural design reviews and live system design sessions, we assessed 34 candidates across a focused six-week window and delivered five verified hires, each matched to a specific technical scope and team culture.
11-week hiring cycle cut to 12 days. 3 roles filled. Hiring manager hasn’t posted a job ad since.
From 3-Month Hiring Cycles to On-Demand Engineering Talent
A SaaS company in the Netherlands was averaging 11 weeks from opening a role to signed offer — every hire a fire drill. We proposed a retained pipeline model: continuous market mapping and candidate engagement, independent of open headcount. When a role opens, a qualified shortlist is ready within 12 days. Three engineers placed across the partnership, zero counter-offer losses.
Questions
Staff Augmentation FAQs
There are no upfront or recruitment fees—billing begins only once your chosen developer signs and starts working. You are invoiced monthly on a single, all-inclusive hourly rate agreed before the project starts, covering both the developer’s compensation and our service margin. You receive one predictable invoice tied strictly to the hours delivered. Contact us today for a tailored quote.
Yes. Developer engagements run for a defined contract period and can be extended as your roadmap requires. You can scale the team up, extend, or wind down with notice — there is no permanent-placement commitment.
Every developer goes through our proprietary multi-stage assessment — architectural design reviews, live problem-solving, and code-quality evaluation — before they reach your team. We assess how they think and collaborate, not just credentials.
Our primary market is Europe, though we work with clients globally and have placed engineers across North America, APAC, and the Middle East from our base in Romania.

What Tech Leaders Say About Our Talent
AXG delivered a shortlist of three candidates within two weeks. We hired the first one. The technical depth of their vetting process saved us months of interviewing noise.
We’ve worked with four staffing firms over the past three years. AXG is the only one that actually understood what our platform required technically before sending anyone through.
Engaged AXG for three separate roles over 18 months. Every engineer is still with us. That retention rate speaks for itself.
