How quickly can you match us with a developer or Studio team?

Devs are matched usually in under 24 hours, often same-day. We maintain a ready-to-deploy network of DevCheck® certified talent, so there’s no lengthy sourcing or interview cycle. Studio teams can mobilise in just a few days.

What makes Tribes different from recruiters or freelancer platforms?

Were designed to be different. Building great products in on our DNA. We use talent for all over the globe and offer no lock-in contracts, long delays, or surprise fees and we have multiple engament models and every developer vetted by DevCheck®, so you know the people we bring to the table can deliver.

How is this different from outsourcing?

Traditional outsourcing usually means handing off a project to an external vendor, often with limited visibility, slow feedback loops, and variable quality. Tribes offers an alternative to these traditional means. We can handle the full project cycle or embed our vetted developers directly into your team or deliver projects transparently with full collaboration. You stay in control of priorities, pace, and product.

What types of projects do you support? Small, large, or full builds?

All of the above. Whether you need a solo dev for a quick feature, or a full squad for an MVP, redesign, or rebuild, we scale to your needs. No project is “too small” to start.

What tech stacks and skills do your developers cover?

We support all technologies from Angular, .NET, and DynamoDB to ArangoDB, Assembly, and beyond. Whether you need frontend specialists or backend experts, our Tribe speaks every language. We also have specialists in DevOps, QA automation, data engineering, and CMS platforms like WordPress and Contentful.

What do I need to start?

Just a bit of context and your goals. We’ll help you shape the right scope, whether you’re starting from a napkin sketch or an internal backlog. You don’t need to have it all figured out just yet.

What roles can I hire?

You can hire individual developers, or full delivery teams that include project managers, QA, and designers. We also support product squads for marketing sites, campaign builds, SaaS platforms, and more.

Can I manage the talent directly, or does Tribes lead the delivery?

You choose! With Tribes Talent, you manage the developers directly with sideline support from us. With Tribes Studio, we lead the project for you including delivery, team management, and QA.

What happens if someone isn’t the right fit?

No problem. We’ll replace them fast, at no extra cost.
We stand behind every placement. If something’s off, we’ll work with you to course-correct immediately. Flexibility is always built in.

Do you offer hourly, sprint, or fixed-price billing?

Yes, all three. Choose what works best for your budget and delivery style:

Are you compliant with ISO 27001, GDPR, and enterprise procurement policies?

Yes. We’re ISO 27001 certified, GDPR compliant, and built to meet procurement requirements of enterprise clients. We’re also a proud B Corp.
