Project Summary

Beetroot AB provided engineering staff augmentation and consulting services for a SaaS assessment platform, supplying AWS, Java, and React developers as well as QA testers and temporary consultants. They handled recruitment, initial onboarding, equipment provisioning, and payroll while integrating resources into the client's workflows (Slack and Jira). The client reports faster hiring timelines and comparable hire success rates relative to local recruitment.

Key Challenges

Need access to a larger talent pool of engineers and testers
Local recruiting processes were slow and made scaling difficult
Desire to support both long- and short-term projects while reducing costs

Project Deliverables

Dedicated developers and QA testers
Staff augmentation and recruitment services (hiring, onboarding, payroll)
End-to-end consulting teams including project managers
Infrastructure setup and operations for consulting projects

Project Solution

Beetroot AB provided two engagement models: staff augmentation and consulting. For staff augmentation they recruited, hired, and provisioned resources (including hardware and onboarding), managed HR and payroll, and delivered dedicated developers and QA testers across AWS, Java, and React technologies. For consulting they supplied temporary consultants and full end-to-end teams (including project managers) that handled infrastructure, development, and operations based on client specifications.

Project Outcome

Recruitment success rate comparable to local hires
Reduced time-to-hire (typically a couple of months versus six months to a year locally)
Met timeline targets and integrated well into the client's project management workflows (Slack, Jira)
