Why DECODE for team extension…

Game changers, not code churners

Our developers are some of the most experienced in the world, having worked with tech giants such as Microsoft. For you, that means they’ll not only create excellent code, but they can share knowledge and improve your processes at the same time if needed.

Adaptable to your workflow

We worked with a large variety of clients. SMEs, enterprises, you name it. If your engineering team is a well-oiled machine, we’ll become a cog in it, without disrupting your processes. 

Easy to work with

Whether it’s your other vendors or your internal team, we’ll collaborate seamlessly, as we have for the past 12 years with hundreds of different teams.

Not a dev shop

We don’t have millions of developers in our network. And frankly, we don’t want to. To offer clients the best possible engineering service, we have to stand behind the quality of each of our engineers. That means we don’t accept just about anyone. Only the best.

Extreme transparency

You’ll have complete communication access to every team member working on your project. You’ll also know exactly who’s doing what, when, why, and at what cost.

How we screen developers

The designated software team lead and an HR representative both meticulously overview each candidate and grade them through our ranking system. Only candidates in the top 20% of rankings can proceed to the next stages of selection.

 The selected candidates attend an interview led by our recruiter and a tech interviewer, usually a senior developer. Half of the interview is reserved for technical questions, where the interviewer gauges the candidate’s level of knowledge.

To make sure the candidate has the necessary skills to perform the job, we give them a complex tech task. We adapt the task to the level of seniority which means we’ll set up high-level problems when selecting for a senior position.

If the candidate solves the task with flying colors, we’ll have a second interview. Here, our recruiter and our CTO will usually attend the interview and the focus is on the candidate’s cultural fit. By selecting candidates with not just great skill, but a great mentality and work ethic, we ensure your project is in good hands.

 The evaluation doesn’t stop at hiring. Over a 6-month period, we’ll closely evaluate the developer’s work and guide them through our processes. They’ll have a buddy assigned throughout the trial period to make sure they’re onboarded properly.

Next steps

We only take on projects we have the capacity to deliver to exceptional standards – and we never abandon you part-way through.

Over a relaxed call or two, we’d like to hear as much as possible about your project
(fully NDA’d of course).

We’ll talk about:

  • Your expectations
  • Services you need
  • Your vision

There are a few steps in this phase:

  • We’ll hand-pick a team based on your desired seniority level and other requirements.
  • We’ll send you their CVs so you’ll know every engineer working for you.
  • If necessary, we can set up interviews between you and every engineer.

Only when you’re 100% on board with our choice, we’ll go to the next phase.

If everything sounds good to you, we’re ready to get started.
