Hire Full-Stack Developers
Screened for developers who own the whole stack, from UI to API to database.
Why STACK IT
Built to hire full-stack developers, not fill seats.
Most agencies optimize for volume. We optimize for the one hire who’s right, vetted by people who understand the work.
Recruiters who speak full-stack
We screen for how a developer moves across the stack, from data model to interface, and the tradeoffs they make along the way. No candidate reaches you without two recruiters signing off.
Every candidate is real
Fake profiles, proxy interviews, and AI-assisted answers are everywhere in tech hiring. We meet each candidate face-to-face on video and screen for AI patterns, so who you interview is who shows up.
Screened to stay, not just to start
A hire that leaves in a year isn't a win. We align trajectory, growth, and total comp so the developer grows with your team instead of moving on.
You pay only when they start
Success-based and non-exclusive, no upfront fees, no retainers. We invoice on your developer's first day, not before.
How we screen
The Full-Stack Developers Evaluation Rubric.
We screen for how full-stack developers actually think. Every shortlist is judged against the same five criteria that predict whether someone delivers in your codebase.
Strong signal
Has shipped and owned features end to end, from schema to UI, and can explain the tradeoffs at each layer.
Falls short
Lists every layer but only goes deep on one.
Strong signal
Writes readable, tested code structured so it survives the next change and the next teammate.
Falls short
Ships features fast but leaves code no one else can safely touch.
Strong signal
Designs clear APIs and data models that hold up as features and load grow.
Falls short
Bolts endpoints on as needed, with schemas that fight every new requirement.
Strong signal
Traces a production issue calmly to root cause and ships a fix that prevents the next one.
Falls short
Patches the symptom and moves on, so the same class of bug returns.
Strong signal
Translates between product, design, and the codebase, and pushes back with reasons, not ego.
Falls short
Builds exactly what the ticket says, even when it's clearly the wrong thing.

Specializations
Full-Stack Developers, across your whole stack.
Whatever your team runs on, we screen for the people who do the work right.
Front-End
React and Angular work that stays fast and accessible as it grows.
Back-End & APIs
Services and APIs that keep production reliable under load.
Databases
Relational and NoSQL data layers modeled to last.
Cloud & Deploy
Shipping and running features on modern cloud infra.
Testing & Quality
Automated coverage that makes a green build mean something.
Performance & Scale
Finding and fixing what slows the app as it grows.
The cost of waiting
An open role isn’t free.
An empty seat doesn’t delay work, it redistributes it. The longer the search drags, the more it costs.
Every week a role stays open, the cost lands on the team you already have.
- Work waits in the backlog while priorities pile up.
- They cover work that isn’t theirs, until something slips.
- The longer the seat stays empty, the harder the restart.
Speed isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s the difference between a gap and a setback.
Time to fill this role
How you hire
Permanent or contract, your call.
Two models, one standard of quality. Bring on the full-stack developers you need the way that fits your timeline and budget.
Permanent
Permanent hire
Best when you’re building the team for the long term.
- You only pay when they start, success-based, no upfront fee.
- Full-cycle vetting for technical and cultural fit.
- Backed by our 90-day replacement guarantee.
Contract
Contract hire
Best when you need delivery capacity now, without adding headcount.
- We’re the employer of record: payroll, compliance, and onboarding handled.
- Most contractors placed in 5–10 business days.
- Convert to permanent anytime, with a buyout discount that grows each month.

FAQ
Hiring full-stack developers, answered.
The questions teams usually ask before starting a search with us.
Full-stack claims are easy to make and hard to verify, so we probe both ends. We walk through something the candidate built end to end, from data model to interface, and check where they are genuinely strong versus where they lean on others. Teach-back on the parts they own tells us how real the breadth is.
We look for people who have owned features across the stack in production, not just touched each layer once. Where a candidate is honestly stronger on one end, we tell you, so you can decide whether that fits the role or whether you actually need a specialist.
It depends on your team shape. Lean teams and early-stage builds often lean on full-stack generalists, sometimes on contract for a specific push and sometimes as a core permanent hire. We advise based on where your gaps actually are.
You will typically see a first vetted candidate within 24 to 48 hours and a calibrated shortlist of three to five within about five business days.
Permanent hires are success-based: you pay only when someone starts, with no upfront fee, backed by our 90-day guarantee. Contract runs on a transparent hourly rate. We will walk you through the specifics on an intro call.
