Questions

Asked before hiring.

How much does it cost to hire DevOps engineers with The Contrast?

From about $20/hour for a senior engineer — the rate is published on our pricing page and in the signed Rate & Promise Memo. Full-time dedicated works out around $3,200/month; you're billed weekly and can cancel anytime.

How fast can they start?

Usually within a week — often faster. Because it's a standing team, there's no recruiting pipeline: we scope on a 15-minute call, agree the shape of the engagement, and begin.

Do they work my timezone?

We overlap US and UK working hours daily for standups and calls, and the offset works for you: brief us in your afternoon, wake up to progress.

Who owns the code?

You do, from the first commit — work happens in your GitHub and your cloud accounts, IP assignment is in the contract, and an NDA is available before the first call.
