Questions & answers
How fast can you place developers?
“Typical time from initial call to a developer starting on your project is 3–4 weeks. For common stacks (React, Python, Java), we often present candidates within 5–10 business days.”
What does staff augmentation cost in Poland?
“Senior engineers from Inuits typically cost about USD 400 a day, roughly USD 45–60 an hour depending on the technology stack and seniority. That is 30–40% below equivalent Western European and US rates.”
What is the difference between staff augmentation and outsourcing?
“With staff augmentation, you manage the developers directly. They work on your tasks, in your tools, under your technical leadership. With outsourcing, you hand a project or scope of work to an external team who manages it independently and delivers results. Inuits offers both models: Staff Augmentation for embedding engineers in your team and Nearshoring for dedicated teams.”
Is Poland cheaper than India for software development?
“No. Poland costs less in total. Polish developers rank #3 on HackerRank (India ranks #31). Offshore projects exceed budgets by 27-45% due to rework, communication delays, and management overhead. Hidden costs consume 20-30% of total outsourcing spend. A $50/hour Polish senior engineer with high first-time code quality costs less than a $25/hour developer requiring significant rework.”
How is Inuits different from Toptal or Turing?
“Toptal and Turing sell access to individual freelancers. Inuits provides full-time engineers who work exclusively on your project. Our engineers are employed by Inuits, not juggling multiple clients. You get team cohesion, knowledge continuity, and someone who owns the system end-to-end. Freelance marketplaces can't provide that accountability.”
What is the difference between staff augmentation and nearshoring?
“Staff augmentation embeds individual engineers into your existing team. You manage them directly. Nearshoring means Inuits assembles a dedicated team in Krakow that takes full project ownership. Choose augmentation for capacity spikes, nearshoring for long-term product development.”
Why Poland over India for nearshore development?
“Poland ranks #3 on HackerRank (India #31). CET timezone means same-day collaboration with Western Europe and about three shared working hours a day with the US East Coast.”
How much does a nearshore team in Poland cost?
“A five-person team in Krakow (tech lead, three developers, QA) costs approximately $25,000-40,000/month. The same team in the US runs $60,000-100,000+/month. Transparent monthly pricing, no hidden costs. The 30-40% savings compound significantly over multi-year product development.”
How long does nearshore team assembly take?
“First engineers within 2–4 weeks of agreement; we add up to three a month, so a squad of ten is in place in about a quarter. For common stacks (React, Python, Java, .NET), first candidates within 5-10 business days. You interview and approve every hire.”
How do you handle timezone differences?
“Poland runs on CET, the same working day as most of Western Europe. UK clients: one hour difference.”
What is nearshore software development?
“Nearshore software development is when a company contracts a software team in a country geographically and culturally close to its own. Same continent, similar timezone, similar working culture.”
How much does Recruitment in Poland cost?
“We charge a one-time placement fee, paid only after the candidate starts. No retainer, no upfront costs. The fee is a percentage of the annual salary. Contact us for the exact rate based on the role.”
What happens if the hire doesn't work out?
“Replacement guarantee. If the placement doesn't work out within the guarantee period, we find a replacement at no additional cost. You don't carry the risk.”
Can you help with work permits for international hires?
“Yes. Inuits partners with”
Do you recruit for remote positions?
“Most placements are remote or hybrid. The candidate works from Poland (usually Krakow) and joins your team remotely. We also support on-site placements if you have a Polish office.”
What if the augmented engineer doesn't fit my team?
“We replace them. Every engagement starts with a trial period. If the engineer isn't the right technical or cultural match, we swap them out at no additional cost. Unlike freelance platforms where you start over from scratch, we maintain a bench of pre-vetted candidates ready to step in.”
How is this different from hiring through Toptal?
“Toptal provides individual freelancers who may juggle multiple clients. Inuits engineers are full-time employees working exclusively on your project. They build institutional knowledge, own their systems end-to-end, and stay through your product lifecycle. Team accountability, not transactional freelancing.”
How much does staff augmentation cost in Poland?
“Senior developer rates at 30-40% below equivalent Western European and US rates. Inuits charges a transparent monthly rate per developer covering salary, benefits, workspace, and management. No hidden fees. Unlike offshore providers where rework costs consume 20-30% of budgets, Polish engineers deliver production-quality code.”
Which stacks do you staff for?
“React, Node, Python, Java, .NET, Go, DevOps, data, and ML are the common ones. If your stack isn't on the list, ask. The network runs deep.”
