Client Reviews
“Exzev delivered a shortlist of senior backend engineers in under 40 hours. We hired two from the first batch — no back-and-forth, no wasted interviews.”
CTO
Series B Fintech
“We'd been trying to hire a Staff Engineer for three months. Exzev closed the search in two weeks. Their vetting is genuinely rigorous — not just resume screening.”
VP Engineering
Enterprise SaaS
“Finding a Solidity engineer who also understands protocol security is nearly impossible. Exzev found us exactly that in under a week. Still can't believe it.”
Founder & CEO
Web3 Infrastructure
“The flat-fee model is a breath of fresh air. No surprises, no upselling. Just fast, quality hiring for technical roles. We've used them three times now.”
Head of Talent
Healthtech Scale-up
“We refer Exzev to every portfolio company that needs senior engineers. Consistent quality across very different tech stacks and geographies.”
Managing Partner
Early-stage VC
“Hired an AI Engineer and a Data Engineer through Exzev. Both are still here 18 months later. That's the real metric — not time-to-hire, retention.”
Engineering Manager
AI/ML Platform
Frequently Asked
A Node.js Developer typically costs TWD 5,525/mo – TWD 7,475/mo in total monthly compensation for a senior hire working remotely, with an upward skew for US-based and executive roles. On top of base, budget 10–25% for equity or bonus and roughly 15–20% fully-loaded overhead. Exzev charges a flat placement fee, not a percentage — pricing is transparent and shared upfront.
First shortlist lands in 48 hours. Most Node.js Developer searches close between two and six weeks end-to-end, versus a market average of roughly 35 days for this role and location. The main drivers are interview throughput on your side and how tightly scoped the brief is — we guide both before sourcing starts.
A senior Node.js Developer owns outcomes across ambiguity; a mid-level one executes a defined scope. For a first Node.js Developer hire or a seat that reports to a C-level, always prefer senior — the cost of a bad leadership-adjacent hire typically exceeds two years of fully-loaded salary.
A full-time Node.js Developer makes sense once the work is continuous and headcount-justified. For early-stage or one-off builds (a single product, a migration, an audit), a fractional or contract Node.js Developer is usually more efficient. Ask one question: will this person be fully utilized inside six months?
Yes. Our active talent pool for this role spans roughly 5,000 pre-vetted candidates across 30+ countries, most of them comfortable with async-first or overlap-based remote setups. We match candidates to your working hours, location preferences (EU, US, UAE) and compliance constraints (EoR, contractor, local entity) before they reach your shortlist.
Every Node.js Developer we send you has passed a three-stage screen: structured scoping interview, a live working session on a problem drawn from your brief, and two reference checks with named peers. We reject the majority of sourced candidates — you only meet the top of the funnel.
