FAQ

How much does it cost to hire Android app developers?

Android developer salaries depend on the person’s individual skill level (junior, middle, or senior), professional experience, country of residence, the company, and so on.

To illustrate, compare average senior Android developer hourly rates in three different regions ‒ Ukraine, the United States and Western Europe, and India.

India The United States and Western Europe Ukraine
$8-10 $100-200 $30-90

Note, Ukrainian programmers are as qualified as the best others. Based on the HackerRank challenges, Ukrainian developers are in Top-20, most of the time even breaking into Top-10.

What are the best ways of hiring Android developers?

You can go about hiring remote Android developers in two ways ‒ use freelance websites or partner up with outstaffing companies. It’s possible to book an individual contractor for a few hours or outsource the Android development team for the entire project. Let’s take a closer look at both.

Hiring freelancers

Hiring freelance contractors is the way to go for many companies. Some of the most popular platforms work in a similar manner. You go to the website, set up your “client” account, create a job post, wait for the candidates to send you their job applications, and discuss with your preferred developers how you are going to work together.

Pros of working with freelancers:

  • Lower rates;
  • Large talent pool;
  • Previous clients’ reviews available;
  • Very good for short-term projects or making minor changes to the existing ones.

Cons of working with freelancers:

  • No quality guarantees;
  • Your only protection is the platform’s policy;
  • Different time zones;
  • Possible language barrier;
  • You have to manage everything yourself.

Hiring Android developers through Ukrainian IT companies

A universally beneficial option for projects of any size and budget is hiring Android developers via Ukrainian IT companies. Outstaffing from Eastern Europe is less expensive than adding more in-house employees, but it is just as reliable.

Pros of outstaffing through IT companies

  • Cost-effectiveness;
  • Dedicated manager for each project;
  • Guaranteed expertise and reliability;
  • Great team experience and quality work.

Cons of outstaffing

  • Possible language barrier;
  • Different time zones.

You can outsource one developer or the entire team through IT companies. The key is to find software developers and a partner you can trust. Ukraine is a well-known IT hub, so you can be sure that your project is going to be in good hands. All you need is to give out as many details of your project as possible and be willing to collaborate along the process.
