Hiring is broken for early-stage startups.

  • US engineering talent is expensive and slow to hire.
  • Offshore platforms give you unknown engineers with no vetting.
  • You need someone who knows the talent — and stands behind them.

How it works

Simple. Fast. Embedded.

01

You tell us what you need

Share your stack, team size, and what you're building. We find the right fit from our vetted Addis Ababa network.

02

We match you in 2 weeks

Every engineer is technically vetted, English-fluent, and pre-screened for startup pace. You're presented 1–2 candidates. You choose.

03

Your engineer starts building

Two-week engagement, fully embedded in your team. Slack, standups, sprints — just like a local hire.

A network built over years. Not scraped from a platform.

  • Addis Ababa has a fast-growing, world-class engineering community — trained at top universities, competitive in global hackathons, hungry to work on hard problems.
  • Temarioch was built by a software engineer (ex-Goldman Sachs) with deep roots in the Ethiopian tech ecosystem.
  • Every engineer in our network is personally known to us — not discovered through a job board.
