Surrounding ourselves with talented individuals elevates us, because we gain strength from the people we work with. Apart from delivering top value to ensure we bring our business vision to life, the right crew can give us new perspectives, bring new skills and enhance our ideas. That’s why finding the right talent is crucial for any business looking to grow, gain flexibility, and improve operations. Team augmentation offers a fantastic opportunity to access top-tier tech talent quickly and efficiently. With this strategy, you can seamlessly expand your team with skilled, motivated professionals ready to help your company scale and succeed.

However, finding them can be challenging. By 2030, the global skill shortage will result in an $8.5 trillion loss in potential annual revenue, with around 90 million tech positions needing to be fulfilled. If you’re struggling to find the right tech talent, you’re not alone. According to Manpower Group, 77% of employers in the US and Canada report difficulty in filling tech roles—a figure that’s doubled since 2015 and is at an all-time high. Even if you currently have a solid tech team, an estimated 40% of employees are always on the lookout for new job opportunities. In this competitive market, high turnover is a constant challenge.

This talent shortage can slow down innovation, delay tech projects, overburden your current employees, and make it tough to scale your business. But team augmentation is a viable solution for all of those consequences. By leveraging a proven process and framework, with a solid and reputable partner like Arionkoder, you can quickly find and onboard skilled professionals who are ready to contribute to your projects and goals. From selecting and hiring to onboarding and managing teams, we centralize and execute operations from both a technical and administrative perspective, allowing you to focus on growing your business without the hassle.

Hiring

Our hiring process is designed to find the best technical and cultural fit for your needs. We only hire 3% of all applicants, completing this process in just 17 days -less than half the industry’s average-. Thanks to our vast talent network, we can quickly find the best candidates based on the profiles we establish with our clients. Our streamlined processes, combining automation with human-centric approaches, ensure we get it right.

Onboarding

During onboarding, we provide our new hires with all the tools and information they need to succeed and hit the ground running in all of your projects. Our support system includes both human and technical initiatives, such as our professional expertise groups. This approach has reduced our attrition levels to well below the industry average, helping us retain top talent that makes a real difference.

Continuous Support and Improvement

Once onboarded, both team members and clients need ongoing support to excel and truly maximize their results. Here’s how we ensure success:

  • Tribe Lead: Think of this role as a customer advocate who supports the client by understanding both the team members and the client’s needs. This balance is key to achieving success.
  • Subject Matter Experts: Sometimes, projects need extra support to overcome technical challenges. We have executive experts in technology and product to help navigate these hurdles. With the rapidly changing tech landscape, having experts in new domains like AI is a huge asset.
  • Guilds: These are technical communities that both clients and team members can rely on for on-demand support. No team member is ever far from a strong community of peers ready to provide timely advice or bounce ideas around. Our guilds are built around technology stacks like React, Swift, and AWS, as well as industry verticals.

In summary, team augmentation offers immense benefits, and partnering with Arionkoder allows you to leverage our proven framework to eliminate risks, optimize key processes, and ensure value creation for your projects.
