Direct access to your developers
You talk to the engineers doing the work. No account managers relaying messages. Your augmented team members report to your tech lead and are accountable to your standards.
You have a team. You need it bigger. We find senior Polish developers who fit your stack and your culture, and embed them directly into your workflows. They join your Slack, attend your standups, push to your repo. The only difference is they sit in Krakow instead of your office.
Tell us what you need
Pre-vetted Polish engineers integrate into your workflow within four weeks.
30-minute call to map your stack, team dynamics, and timeline.
Within 2 weeks, you interview 2-5 pre-vetted candidates via video call. Common stacks (React, Python, Java) often in 5-10 business days.
Onboarding takes 1-2 weeks. We handle Polish employment contracts, payroll, and compliance.
Add or reduce team members, adjust timelines. Month-to-month after initial period.
Dedicated engineers, full IP ownership, and direct integration into your workflow.
You talk to the engineers doing the work. No account managers relaying messages. Your augmented team members report to your tech lead and are accountable to your standards.
Polish developers rank #3 globally on HackerRank, #1 in Java. Krakow has 65,000+ IT specialists. Graduates from AGH and Jagiellonian University. Experienced, English-fluent, and used to international teams.
Central European Time: aligned with Western Europe, one hour from London, 5-6 hours overlap with US East Coast. Your augmented engineers are at their desks when you need them.
Poland's structural cost advantage means senior developers at 30-40% below Western rates. Not because the talent is cheaper. Because the cost of living is different. Same code quality, lower total cost.
Four ways to add engineering capacity: in-house hiring, traditional outsourcing, freelance platforms, or IT staff augmentation. Here's where each fits.
| Staff augmentation (Inuits) | In-house hire | Traditional outsourcing | Freelance platform | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Time to start | 2–4 weeks | 2–4 months | 4–8 weeks | Days, variable |
| Who manages the engineer | You | You | The vendor | You |
| Seniority | Senior, pre-vetted | Whoever you find | Mixed, often junior | You screen |
| Timezone overlap (US/EU) | 5–6h / full | Full | Often none | Variable |
| Cost vs US rates | 30–40% lower | Full loaded cost | Lower, rework-prone | Platform fee on top |
| If it isn't working | We replace, no fee | Re-hire from scratch | Change request | Start over |
| Code & IP ownership | Yours | Yours | Contract-dependent | Contract-dependent |
Any team scaling engineering faster than local hiring allows.
Series A to C, shipping fast. A senior engineer in Slack in weeks, not quarters. No agency retainers, no recruiter fees.
50–250 employees with a backlog outpacing local hiring. Embed senior Polish engineers into existing squads and keep velocity steady.
React, Python, DevOps, data, or ML specialists. Hard to find locally, well-represented in Krakow's 65,000-person tech scene.

Kraków has 65,000+ IT specialists, with AGH and Jagiellonian University feeding the pipeline. Polish developers rank #3 globally on HackerRank and #1 in Java. Google, IBM, and Cisco all run engineering here, so the talent is used to international product teams and English-first communication. It's nearshore, not offshore: CET puts Kraków an hour from London and gives you 5–6 hours of overlap with the US East Coast. Close enough to join your standup, not a handoff you read about the next morning.
