How much does an offshore DevOps Engineer cost?

Our DevOps Engineer rate starts from $3,600/mo. That is one flat monthly number covering salary, recruitment, payroll, HR, equipment, workspace, IT security and account management — no add-ons.

How quickly can you place a DevOps Engineer?

Typically 25–35 days from discovery to start date. You interview a shortlist of pre-assessed, English-verified candidates before you decide.

Neither. Every person is a full-time employee of Lioncrest People in the Philippines, working exclusively for your business. They are on your systems, in your meetings and accountable to your KPIs.

What if it doesn't work out?

Our 120-day replacement guarantee covers you. If a hire is not performing, we replace them at no additional recruitment cost.

We do. Employment contracts, statutory contributions, benefits, leave, performance management and local compliance sit entirely with Lioncrest.
