When to Use Contract Staffing
Discovery & JD Calibration:
We start with a kickoff to understand your needs and calibrate the job description together, ensuring it targets the right talent.
System Migrations:
Upgrading or re-architecting your tech stack, such as moving to the cloud or adopting new frameworks, often requires short-term expertise. Contract specialists with migration experience ensure a smooth transition, then wrap up when the job is done.
Data Pipelines and Integrations:
Building or refining data pipelines is often a contained project. Bring in a contractor to design and implement it, so your core team stays focused on your product.
For any of these scenarios, you can start with a short-term engagement and extend it if needed. This strategic flexibility keeps your options open.
Quality Bar
Contract doesn’t mean compromise
Every contract candidate must clear the same rigorous vetting process we use for full-time hires. We interview, test, and evaluate each contractor to ensure they meet our high standards.
In fact, we include the same AI collaboration coding challenges in contract candidate screenings to see how well they work with AI tools in real time. You get the flexibility of a contractor with the confidence that each candidate has been vetted as thoroughly as any permanent hire.
How Billing Works
Here’s how billing works:
Flexible Billing
Choose hourly or monthly billing for your contractors. We accommodate what fits your project and cash flow.
Client Control
You approve all contractor time or budgets upfront, so there are no surprises at invoicing. This ensures you remain in control of scope and cost.
Transparent Markup
We apply a standard 50 to 60 percent markup on the contractor's pay rate to cover payroll taxes, benefits, and administrative costs. For example, if a contractor earns $50 per hour, the bill rate would be about $75 to $80 per hour. This transparency around ML contractor hourly rates helps you budget effectively.
W-2 and 1099 Options
We can engage contractors as either W-2 employees or 1099 consultants, depending on what works best for your situation. Dynamic Sourcing handles all payroll, tax, and compliance paperwork in both cases, so you can focus on the work, not the paperwork.
