Why Hire From CognyX

Hiring engineers shouldn't mean three months of recruiting, a marketplace gamble, or a junior who needs hand-holding through every sprint. CognyX gives you senior engineers who have already shipped production AI and software systems — vetted, onboarded, and contributing real code inside the first week.

We are an AI development company first, not a staffing agency. Every engineer you hire is a working member of our delivery team, screened on the same technical bar we apply to our own 110+ client projects. That means they bring patterns — RAG pipelines, eval harnesses, voice AI, n8n automations, CI/CD discipline — rather than learning them on your budget.

Based in Ahmedabad, India, our engineers maintain a guaranteed daily overlap with US and EU/UK working hours. You get cost-efficient senior talent without the asynchronous-only frustration that sinks most offshore arrangements. Code, IP, and ownership transfer fully to you, with an NDA in place from day one.

Roles You Can Hire

Pick a single specialist or assemble a cross-functional pod. Each role links to a detailed page covering skills, sample work, and pricing.

Engagement Models

Match the commitment to the work. Every model includes a single point of contact, weekly demos, and the flexibility to scale with two weeks' notice.

Full-Time Dedicated Engineer

A senior engineer working only on your roadmap, 40 hours a week, as a true extension of your in-house team. Monthly retainer, no recruitment overhead.

Part-Time / Fractional

20 hours a week when you need senior firepower without a full-time commitment — ideal for advisory work, code review, or a single workstream.

Project-Based (Fixed Scope)

Clear scope, fixed budget, defined milestones. Best for well-scoped builds — a chatbot, an automation, or an MVP — shipped in 8–12 weeks.

Staff Augmentation

Drop one to five vetted engineers into your existing squad to clear a backlog or hit a deadline, managed by your tech lead under your process.

Our Hiring Process

Five steps from first call to shipped code. No drawn-out pipelines — most clients have an engineer onboarded inside a single week.

1

Discovery Call

Day 0

A free 30-minute architecture review. We map your goal, stack, and timeline, then recommend the role mix and engagement model that fit.

2

Matching

Day 1-3

We shortlist engineers from our bench whose experience matches your domain and stack. You receive profiles with real project context, not generic CVs.

3

Technical Interview

Day 3-5

You interview the shortlist directly. Run a live coding session, a system-design discussion, or a paid trial task — whatever gives you confidence.

4

Onboarding

Week 1

Your engineer joins your tools — Slack, Jira, GitHub, your cloud — and ships a first meaningful PR inside week one, not week four.

5

Ongoing Delivery

Week 1+

Weekly demos, transparent reporting, and a single point of contact. Scale the team up or down with two weeks' notice as the work changes.

What Every Engagement Includes

Hiring through CognyX is not a marketplace transaction where you are handed a profile and left to manage the rest. Every engagement — whether a single fractional engineer or a five-person pod — comes with the structure that makes remote senior delivery actually work.

You get a guaranteed daily overlap window with your time zone, committed in the contract, so stand-ups, demos, and live debugging happen when you are at your desk. You get a single point of contact who owns communication and escalation, weekly demos that show real progress rather than status decks, and transparent reporting on what shipped and what is next. An NDA is in place from the first conversation, and all code, models, and intellectual property transfer to you under a clean work-for-hire agreement.

Behind every individual engineer sits the wider CognyX team. When your hire hits a problem outside their core specialism — a thorny infrastructure question, a model-evaluation edge case, a security review — they can pull in a colleague who has solved it before. You hire one person and get the pattern library of a team that has shipped 110+ production projects. And if a match ever isn't working, our two-week replacement guarantee means you are never stuck carrying a hire that isn't delivering.
