What they do, and a first piece of work.
DevOps or cloud engineer
Builds and runs your cloud infrastructure as code, your build and deployment pipelines, and your monitoring, on AWS, Google Cloud or Azure.
A first deliverableOne service's infrastructure written as code and deployed through a pipeline, with alerts on the metrics that matter to you.
First deliverables are examples. You set the deliverables and deadlines in your SOW.
Mid-level or senior
Delivers reliably when someone senior on your team, or a clear product lead, sets direction and reviews the work.
Has owned this kind of work alone at a company like yours. Sets direction and makes the calls without anyone reviewing their work.
Screened for your role, then met by us.
Every applicant answers questions about their skills, experience and how they like to work, and is ranked against your role. Only the applicants who come through screening move on to our review.
We meet every candidate before you do and check their English, so you know they can hold their own in your meetings and written threads. We also confirm their experience is what they say it is.
We call their references and review their code, so you aren’t taking their résumé on trust.
Then you interview, and the choice is always yours. The full process is in how we vet candidates.
Access you give, and can take back.
- You give them access to the systems, accounts and information the work needs, and you can remove it. They bring their own computer and software; a device or license you issue stays yours and is returned or shut off when the engagement ends (SOW §2).
- You do not give a contractor health information, payment-card data or other regulated personal data unless we have first agreed in writing how it will be handled. We sign a data processing addendum where the law requires one (MSA §8).
- We never permit access from a country under comprehensive U.S. sanctions, or from one the U.S. Department of Justice lists as a country of concern for sensitive personal data (MSA §8).
- We tell you within 72 hours of confirming any unauthorized access to your confidential information (MSA §8).
Your team, our contract.
You work with them directly on the deliverables and deadlines in your SOW. They are independent contractors of sourceBOLD, not your employees: we hold their contract and handle their payments, tax documents and expense reimbursements. Each person has a monthly Service Fee, invoiced on the 15th for the following month and paid by ACH (MSA §1, §2).
Tell us in writing with specifics, and we require the contractor to correct the work at no extra charge. If they refuse, or it is not corrected within ten business days, you can end that SOW. If a contractor stops working, the SOW ends on their last day and we refund the rest of that month, prorated by calendar day. If they materially breach your security or confidentiality requirements, act dishonestly or act unlawfully, you can have them removed at once. In each case we propose a replacement for you to approve (MSA §1, §6).
Questions buyers ask, answered.
Scale your team.
