How Hiring a Dedicated LLM Engineer Works
From the requirements call to a tuned serving layer in production. Here is how we vet, match and onboard every LLM engineer we place.
Vetting, matching and onboarding, in that order
Every engineer is tested on real serving work
Before an engineer joins our bench, they are tested on model selection tradeoffs, fine-tuning approaches, and a hands-on task tuning a serving layer for latency and cost under simulated load.
- Model selection and fine-tuning fundamentals.
- Serving layer performance tuning.
- A real latency-and-cost optimization task.
You get a shortlist, not a resume pile
We match engineers to your specific workload: your usage volume, your latency requirements, and the timezone overlap that works for your team. You see 2 to 3 fitting profiles, not fifty.
- Matched to your usage volume.
- Matched to your latency requirements.
- Matched to your working hours.
A structured start, then you take the lead
The engineer reviews your current setup and usage patterns, agrees latency and cost targets with you, and starts tuning the serving layer in the first week. You manage priorities directly from there.
- A review of your current setup and usage.
- Agreed latency and cost targets.
- Direct day-to-day management by your team.
Everything included in the engagement
Dedicated engineer
Works only on your account, not shared across other clients' workloads.
Direct communication
Access to the engineer on your own tools, with no account manager relay.
Flexible contracts
Full time, part time, or a fixed scope, adjustable with notice as your workload changes.
Latency and cost reviews
Performance and cost reviewed against agreed targets, not left unmonitored.
Timezone overlap
Working hours arranged to overlap with your team for stand-ups and reviews.
Replacement guarantee
A new engineer at no extra cost if the current one is not the right fit.
