Remote teams
Hire remote developers, screened on a live task first
Mobile, web, Python and QA engineers who work in your repository, join your standups and ship on your review. You decide on delivery, and Qelv LLC holds the contract.
$25 to $40 an hour, or $2.4K to $4.8K a month
This looks fantastic. We are most impressed.

Placements
Developers we placed, and what they shipped
- A US hotel-intelligence companyPython engineers placed after a 24-hour reverse-engineering task with no Selenium allowed, then a paid trial. They watch collectors that run every night.
- AdultEd ProA React Native developer and a QA engineer, with daily standups, carried the releases after the app went live in January 2024.
- Flex Pro GripFinding developers it could work with had been its biggest obstacle. The developer we placed shipped a feature to production in July 2024.

Screening
The bar every developer clears
A live technical task, not a CV screen
Candidates get a real problem from the work, with a deadline and the shortcuts ruled out in writing. What the task is depends on the seat: a reverse-engineering problem for a data placement, a schema and a broken migration for a backend one.
A phased trial, the second phase paid, under NDA
The first phase screens. The second is paid and runs on the client's actual work, so the decision is made on delivery rather than on interviews.
Placement on the client's terms
Biweekly billing or a monthly block, in the client's repository under the client's standards, with the founder still accountable for the work.
For agencies
White-label development for agencies
Senior hands on your overflow, in your repository and under your standards, white-label, weekly invoicing, cancel anytime. Your client never sees us. $25 to $40 an hour.
Need the whole build instead?
We build custom software at a fixed price, and you own the code.

Hiring remote developers
What does a remote developer cost?
$25 to $40 an hour on the hourly bench, invoiced weekly, or $2.4K to $4.8K a month for a dedicated developer, part time to full time. A fractional engineer, a few days a month, is $1.5K to $3K a month.
How do you screen developers?
With a live task from real work, a deadline and the shortcuts ruled out in writing. For one data placement that was a 24-hour reverse-engineering task with no Selenium allowed. Then a phased trial under NDA, the second phase paid, on your own work.
Who owns the code?
You do. Developers work in your repository from the first commit, and ownership of what they produce is written into the statement of work.
Can they work white-label for our clients?
Yes. Agencies and software houses use the overflow bench for exactly that: senior hands on your overflow, in your repository, under your standards, with your brand in front of the client.
Is there a placement fee or a minimum term?
No placement fee. A dedicated developer is month to month, and the hourly bench can be canceled anytime.
