Hire Remote Dedicated Developers for USA, $2,000/month

$2,000 USD per month, flat. That covers 160 hours of full-time, exclusive work - your developer works only on your project. No hourly markups, no project surcharges, no retainer minimums. The first 7 days are a risk-free trial; if the developer isn't a fit, you pay nothing. Compare to a USA in-house mid-level engineer at $7,500-$10,800/month fully loaded, or a Toptal premium developer at $9,600-$24,000/month for 160 hours.

Same engagement, different vocabulary. USA staff augmentation means a dedicated developer joins your existing engineering team and reports into your sprint cadence on US-morning hours. IT outsourcing or offshore software development is the same arrangement from the vendor side - we are the outsourced engineering partner; your developer is the in-team capacity. Empiric Infotech runs all three under one model: $2,000 USD/month for 160 hours of full-time, exclusive work, billed monthly, W-8BEN-E provided for clean US tax handling. The label changes; the engagement does not.

Yes. Our $2,000/month dedicated developer model is offshore software development priced for USA founder-led product teams. Your developer is India-based, full-time, exclusive to your project, and overlaps the USA business day by 4 to 5 hours (East Coast morning). You get the cost structure of offshore IT outsourcing (5 to 12x less than Toptal-tier US contractors), the consistency of a full-time hire, and the flexibility of monthly billing with no annual contract.

Yes - this is our most common USA engagement. Series-A and bootstrapped SaaS teams with 2 to 6 in-house USA engineers add 1 to 3 Empiric developers to extend the team for 6 to 18 months. The dedicated developer joins your US-morning standups, picks up tickets from your Linear or Jira, opens PRs in your GitHub, and reports to your engineering manager. From your team's day-to-day, the developer is a teammate. From accounting's side, the developer is a single monthly invoice with no W-2 employment overhead, no payroll tax, and no benefits exposure.

Developers work 09:30 AM - 07:30 PM IST (Mon-Fri). US East Coast clients get a 1-hour live overlap from 9:00-10:00 AM ET (with 3 hours of async work delivered before US business open) plus the project manager available until 12:30 PM ET for meetings. US Central clients overlap 9:00-10:30 AM CT. US West Coast clients overlap 6:00-7:00 AM PT for daily standups, with the PM available for meetings 9:00-11:30 AM PT.

Yes. Empiric Infotech LLP is registered in India, and we provide a fully completed W-8BEN-E form (the foreign-entity equivalent of W-9) on day 1 of the engagement. Your accountant can use it to classify our invoices as foreign vendor payments, which means no 1099 reporting, no tax withholding on your side, and no payroll tax exposure. We also provide audit-ready monthly invoices.

Toptal lists premium freelancers at $60-$150/hour. For 160 hours of full-time work that's $9,600-$24,000 per month, plus a one-time platform fee in some cases. Empiric Infotech's $2,000/month is for the same 160 hours of full-time exclusive capacity - 5-12× less. The trade-off is timezone: Toptal lists USA-based freelancers, Empiric Infotech is India-based with USA-morning overlap. For founder-led, async-friendly SaaS work, the math heavily favors Empiric Infotech.

Yes - that's the entire model. You pay one invoice for one month, and you can cancel at any time with 7 days written notice. No annual contract, no 3-month or 6-month minimum, no early-termination penalty, no auto-renewal trap. We bill on the 1st of each month, and you decide on day 24 whether you want next month.

All three. Most USA clients pay by ACH (no fee, 2-3 day settlement) - we provide our US partner bank routing details on the first invoice. Wire transfers settle next day for an extra $25. Credit card payments via Stripe carry a 3% surcharge passed through to you. Whichever you pick, payment is upfront on the 1st of each month for that month's work.

The first 7 calendar days of the engagement are a trial period. The developer joins your standups, gets pulled into your repo, and starts shipping work. On day 7 you decide: continue (you've already paid for the month, work continues) or cancel (we refund 100% of the first invoice within 5 business days). No questions, no negotiation, no clawback for hours worked. If you cancel, we end the engagement that day.

Yes. Three of our most recent dedicated-developer engagements are with USA-based products: Roamate (a Travel & Hospitality SaaS), Velvet Passport (a Creator/Business Partnership platform), and Superintelligence (an AI-driven personal digital assistant). Typical USA engagements run 6-18 months continuous, with 1-2 developers per project, full-stack web + mobile + AI/ML where relevant.

Two paths: (a) free replacement - we re-listen (what didn't fit, what changed), introduce the next developer who fits within 48 hours, and they start immediately at the same rate; (b) full refund - we refund 100% of the first invoice within 5 business days. You pick. Most USA clients pick (a) because re-fit beats restarting the search.

You do. The engagement is governed by an NDA + IP-assignment agreement signed on day 0. All rights, title, and interest in code, designs, documentation, and any work product transfer to your company. The developer commits to your GitHub, deploys on your AWS, works in your Linear - using your accounts. Empiric Infotech retains nothing. We're happy to sign the standard SaaS founder agreement template (Y Combinator, Stripe Atlas, Clerky, or your firm's own).
