Hire Developers in New York
New York City is the largest tech job market in the United States, with over 345,000 tech workers and more software engineering roles than any metro area outside the Bay Area. But that scale comes with a price: senior developers in NYC command $140K-$180K, and the talent competition from Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Bloomberg, Google, and Meta is relentless. Our pre-vetted developers give New York companies access to top-tier engineering talent at 40-60% lower cost, with placements starting in 1-2 weeks.
Why Hire Developers Through Us in New York?
New York's tech industry generated $209 billion in economic output in 2024, making it the second-largest tech economy in the world behind only the San Francisco Bay Area. The city's 345,000+ tech workers serve Wall Street, Madison Avenue, and Silicon Alley alike. But the average cost of a senior engineer — $140K-$180K in base salary, plus $30K-$50K in benefits and Manhattan office costs — puts top talent out of reach for many companies. We solve this by matching you with engineers from our global bench who meet New York quality standards at a fraction of the local price.
