Managed offshore staffing across Asia
Offshore, run like an in-house team.
We employ the people. You direct the work. Sprint Labs recruits, vets and manages engineers, revenue and support staff across Asia — then embeds them in your company, on your hours, in your tools, to your standard.
How does managed offshore staffing work?
Most offshore is arbitrage. Ours is operations.
Marketplaces sell you hours. Agencies sell you whoever is on the bench. Both leave you managing strangers across a time zone, then wondering why velocity never arrives.
We took the opposite position. Everyone we place is employed by Sprint Labs, works from a managed office, and is held to one standard — ours. You get the person. We carry the payroll, the HR, the hardware, the retention.
| Hiring locally | Sprint Labs | |
|---|---|---|
| Time from brief to signed offer | 3–6 months | 2–4 weeks |
| Who employs the person | You, plus an entity | We do |
| Recruitment fee | $20–30k per hire | None |
| If it isn't working | Your problem | Replaced in 30 days |
| Fully loaded senior cost | $120–180k | 60–70% less |
