Case study
Customer success story eqtble + YouTeam
Extend your team with remote developers now!
Why did you decide to hire a remote dev team of contractors?
As an early-stage startup, we wanted to release our initial product quickly, but hiring full-time engineers is a long process. Instead, we decided to hire contractors to get the ball rolling quickly.
There are numerous options for hiring remote engineers. What made you choose YouTeam?
I had many different options on my board, but Y Combinator recommended YouTeam. YouTeam bonds with my business because they speedily find and contract engineers, and their claims of incredibly high quality have proven to be true. The whole experience was more seamless compared to many other companies that I had tried.
Was hiring speed a decisive factor for choosing YouTeam?
Speed was the main factor for us!
What made you decide to hire these particular developers?
Perfect overlap with our existing technology stack.
What’s the most valuable aspect of YouTeam for you?
Finding good engineering contractors is hard. YouTeam made it seamless. We started with a few engineers from YouTeam, and the entire process, from sourcing to contracts, has been fantastic!
Would you ask YouTeam to source candidates for your projects again if there was a need?
Yes, and I highly recommend this service.
