Hire Remote DevOps Engineers in Ireland

Hiring devops engineers in Ireland is slow and expensive. OSCABE gives EU companies dedicated, fully-managed devops engineers from India and the Middle East from £2,600 per month, typically around 53% below the local cost of a comparable in-house hire. OSCABE vets, employs, manages and pays each DevOps engineer under one UK contract, so you get a dedicated team member without opening an overseas entity.
