For Developers
The expectations, processes, and support you can count on once you join the network.
What do you look for in applicants?+
You bring shipped AI systems, clear architectural reasoning, and evaluation discipline. We review production work, but we also love side projects - both lets us ensure you can embed with teams immediately.
What does the vetting process involve?+
You walk through prior developments, share experiences through a white design docs, evaluation runs), and complete a scenario-based system design interview focused on agentic workflows and RAG.
How do matches work and how fast can I start?+
Once you’re approved, we surface engagements aligned with your stack and timezone. After that it's up to you to choose the best fit for you.
Is Vecta just another job board?+
No. Vecta is a high-touch matching service that pairs you with teams after understanding your goals and availability. We curate roles, bring you personalized recommendations, and stay involved to ensure the engagement is a mutual fit.
What are the benefits of joining?+
High-impact agentic AI work, global remote flexibility, top-tier pay, no client hunting, and access to a vetted network of peers solving real problems.
What stacks are most in demand?+
TypeScript or Python paired with orchestration tools (LangChain, LlamaIndex, Inngest, Temporal), modern hosting (Vercel, AWS, Cloudflare), and observability know-how are our most requested combinations.
How are rates set and payments handled?+
We collaborate on a target hourly or weekly rate based on your background and typical engagement scope. Payments are handled directly by the employer since Vecta operates as a recruitment agency.
What timezone overlap do you expect?+
Most teams request at least 3–4 hours of shared overlap. We flag opportunities that fit your availability and won’t push matches that conflict with your schedule.
How should I present past work and evaluation artifacts?+
Share architecture diagrams, repo snippets, eval dashboards, and deployment notes. The more concrete, the better—we want to understand how you drove reliability after launch.
Can I work part-time or across multiple clients?+
Yes. Many engineers split time between engagements. We outline expectations with each client so bandwidth stays transparent and commitments remain sustainable.
What support do you provide during engagements?+
You get access to our partner success team, shared playbooks, and evaluation tooling. We check in regularly to unblock decisions and keep delivery on track.
For Businesses
How we scope, staff, and deliver agentic AI talent that fits your team’s standards.
How quickly can we get matched and start?+
After a scoping call, we typically introduce vetted engineers within 48 hours. Teams often begin working with their match in under a week.
How do you vet engineers and ensure quality?+
Every engineer has shipped production AI systems. We review code samples, architecture decisions, evaluation artifacts, and run scenario interviews focused on your use cases.
Who owns IP and how is confidentiality handled?+
You retain full ownership of IP. NDAs and MSAs ensure your code, data, and processes remain confidential. Engineers work inside your repos and tooling under your controls.
How do you handle security and compliance?+
We align with your access policies, SSO, and audit requirements. Engineers follow your security protocols, and we can provide documentation for SOC 2, HIPAA, or other frameworks.
What timezone coverage can we expect?+
We match you with engineers who overlap at least a half day with your core team. If you need extended coverage, we can staff distributed pairs.
What if the initial match isn’t the right fit?+
We monitor every engagement. If something feels off, we intervene quickly and can provide an alternate engineer without restarting the entire process.
Do you support maintenance after delivery?+
Yes. We can keep engineers on retainer, transition them into long-term roles, or spin up a maintenance pod to manage updates and monitoring.
How do you ensure visibility and ongoing evaluation?+
Engineers ship with metrics: evaluation dashboards, alerting, and logging. We encourage weekly reviews so you see performance trends and can iterate with real data.
