The situation
What the client walked in with.
A Series B SaaS startup in Bangalore needed to grow its engineering team from 5 to 40+ across frontend, backend, DevOps, and QA — in under 3 months. Internal HR was overwhelmed, and generic job portals were delivering unqualified volume. The company needed senior engineers who could be productive from week one.
What we ran
The engagement.
Talpro assigned a dedicated 3-person recruitment pod: a tech recruiter, a sourcing specialist, and a recruitment coordinator. We built a custom skills matrix aligned to their tech stack, tapped our pre-vetted candidate network, and ran structured technical screenings before presenting shortlists. Candidates were presented within 36 hours of each requirement.
