Case Study
Hiring 3 Developers for the Price of 1
Challenge
Scaling Development Capacity on a Limited Budget
Codefusion Technologies, led by Elijah Turner, needed more software developers to meet growing demands. However, their budget only allowed for the hiring of one developer in the U.S., limiting their ability to expand rapidly.
Solution
Three High-Caliber Developers for the Price of One
Remote Hero sourced three highly skilled software developers from the Philippines, providing Codefusion with the expanded development capacity they needed at a fraction of the cost.
Results
Massive Savings
Codefusion saved $343,710 in the first year, a cost reduction of over 79%. The company was able to hire three developers for less than the price of one local hire, drastically increasing their development capacity.
Continued Savings and Increased Productivity
The offshore developers provided the same quality as U.S.-based talent while allowing Codefusion to scale faster and stay within budget.
| US COST | Philippine Cost With RH | |
|---|---|---|
Software Engineer X3 | $405,000.00 | $72,000.00 |
Social Security Contribution (6.2%) | $25,110.00 | N/A |
Remote Hero Fees (25%) | N/A | $14,400.00 |
Total Cost | $430,110.00 | $86,400.00 |
This presented savings of over 79% which includes Remote Heroes' 25% recruitment fee. The following year Codefusion technologies will save over 83% in employee costs.
