Most companies treat hiring a developer like preparing for a long journey: paperwork, onboarding, documentation, setup, then maybe some productivity in week three. At OCTAGT, we don’t believe in waiting.
Our devs ship code on Day One.
Here’s how we make that happen—and why it changes everything for teams that need results now.
1. Pre-Matched for Your Stack and Workflow
We don’t send “generalists.” Every developer is vetted for:
- Your tech stack (React, Python, .NET, etc.)
- Your industry (SaaS, fintech, healthcare, etc.)
- Your tools and ticketing system (Jira, GitHub, Slack)
That means less hand-holding and fewer meetings explaining what “CI/CD” means.

2. Our Onboarding = One Slack Message
The average time to onboard a new dev is 2–3 weeks. With us, it’s 2–3 hours. How?
- Pre-configured environments
- Dedicated success manager
- Immediate access to your repos and workflows
Your developer joins standup. By lunch, they’re reviewing PRs.

3. They’re Not Contractors. They’re Teammates.
We don’t believe in “throw them the tickets and hope” outsourcing. Our developers:
- Attend your daily standups
- Communicate in your channels
- Work in your time zone
They integrate into your team’s rhythm from day one—no silos, no awkward handoffs.

4. Delivery-First Mentality
You’re not hiring a developer. You’re hiring output. That’s why every dev we place is trained in:
- Agile delivery practices
- Outcome-based sprint planning
- Fast shipping without sacrificing quality
Expect meaningful contribution—not training wheels.

Final Thought
When projects are moving fast, you don’t need someone to watch. You need someone to build. Day one developer onboarding isn’t just a promise—it’s how we operate.
At OCTAGT, our developers are ready to plug in and contribute like they’ve been on your team for months.
