Before you meet anyone

How we screen mobile developers.

Every candidate is checked against the work, your tools and your hours. You only interview the people who pass.

See screened candidates
  1. The duties, not the title

    We review the mobile work each candidate has actually shipped: apps in the stores, API integration, crash fixes and releases.

  2. Your framework

    Tell us your stack and we shortlist people who have worked in it, from Swift and Kotlin to React Native and Flutter.

  3. How they write and speak

    Standups, tickets and code review run on clear English, so we screen how each candidate writes and speaks about their work.

  4. Your hours

    We confirm each candidate can work your hours, so they’re in your standups and code reviews while your team is online.

  5. Background and medical checks

    Every hire passes background and medical checks before day one. They’re part of the process, not an extra.

  6. Then you interview the shortlist

    You meet the candidates who pass, ask your own questions, and choose who joins your team.

One monthly fee per employee.

No placement fee. No separate hiring charges. Everything you need to get a new hire started on your team is inside the fee.

A local hire, salary plus overhead$1,375/wk
A Remote Employee$473/wk

Illustrative example that updates with the calculator. Your fee depends on the role and experience level; the marketplace shows a monthly range for each candidate.

  • Background & medical checks
  • Compliance & BIR registration
  • Payroll & employment taxes
  • Comprehensive medical benefits
  • Perks & team events

Questions about hiring mobile developers.

How hiring through Remote Employee works for this role.

They build and maintain your iOS and Android apps: new screens and features, API integration, crash fixes and performance work, testing, and releases to the App Store and Google Play.

Yes, with a cross-platform framework like React Native or Flutter. If your apps are native, tell us which platforms you need and we screen for Swift, Kotlin or both.

The one you already run. Tell us your stack and we shortlist people who have worked in it, typically Swift, Kotlin, React Native or Flutter, alongside Firebase, GitHub and Jira.

You give them their own logins with the permissions you choose, as you would for anyone on your team. They work on equipment we provide, and every hire passes background and medical checks before they start.

Yes. Preparing builds, submitting releases and responding to store review feedback is part of the role, through the developer accounts you give them access to.

It depends on the role, experience, and skills you’re looking for.

Once we know who you need, we’ll give you the cost upfront. There’s a one-time setup fee per employee, followed by a monthly fee. Businesses typically save 50–70% compared with hiring a similar role in the US with equivalent education, experience or other qualifications.

Remote Employee® is the legal employer. We employ your team member locally in the Philippines and take care of their payroll, taxes, contracts, and compliance. You just pay a set monthly invoice while we take care of the rest.
