Tech Platform Expands Product and Engineering Teams While Cutting Hiring Costs by Over CHF 100,000 Annually

Client Profile

The client is a global platform focused on helping enterprises modernize how they manage projects and technology talent. As the company scaled its client base, it needed to expand its internal team with specialized product and integration expertise to deliver at speed and quality.

Challenge

The leadership team was seeking two critical hires:

A Technical Product/Project Manager to streamline communication between business and engineering, improve operational efficiency, and manage delivery of client-facing solutions.

An Integration Engineer with advanced MuleSoft expertise to design and implement complex API and cloud integrations across enterprise systems.

Local hiring options for these roles were prohibitively expensive, with comparable salaries often crossing six figures annually.

Solution

Hey Recruiting sourced two professionals with strong technical and international experience:

A Computer Science graduate from Emory University with experience at a large B2B technology platform and a boutique development studio, where he delivered web applications, productized workflows, and optimized back-end processes for enterprise clients.

A MuleSoft-certified engineer with more than four years in global IT consultancies, including NTT Data and Apisero, where he built large-scale API integrations, migrated applications to the cloud, and designed CI/CD pipelines across AWS and Azure environments.

Results

The client hired both candidates full-time at a combined annual cost of CHF 57,000. Equivalent hires in the U.S. or Europe would have cost over $150,000. By bringing these professionals onboard, the client added depth in product delivery and integration capabilities while saving more than $100,000 annually.
