◆ DEVOPS RECRUITING

Hire DevOps engineers

Senior DevOps engineers, vetted for infrastructure depth and working style, shortlisted in days. You interview a curated 3–5, and you pay only when you hire.

◆ WHY MIR · HIRE

Why teams hire DevOps engineers through us

Vetted on real infrastructure

Every candidate is screened on actual pipelines, IaC and incident handling — the work that keeps you deployed and online, not vendor certifications they memorized.

Reliability that scales

Engineers who have run Kubernetes, set up observability and owned on-call. They know the boring reliability work that prevents 3am outages.

Pay only when you hire

Success-fee model: no retainer, no upfront cost. We earn when you land a DevOps engineer you actually keep.

◆ THE DIFFERENTIATOR

We assess fit, not just CVs

Every DevOps candidate is screened for skill and run through a structured work-style assessment — powered by JobCannon, our own live assessment platform (1,500+ skills, 2,500+ career profiles). You see how a person actually works and where they fit on your team, before you spend an interview slot on them. Fewer mis-hires, faster yes/no.

◆ FAQ

Questions founders ask

How fast can I get DevOps candidates?

Most briefs get a shortlist of 3–5 vetted DevOps engineers within a few business days. You will hear back within one business day with a concrete plan.

Do you place SRE and platform engineers too?

Yes. DevOps, SRE and platform engineering overlap heavily in our pool. Flag the exact remit in the brief and we will shortlist for it specifically.

How do you vet for production reliability?

We review real CI/CD pipelines, IaC, cloud architecture, observability setups and incident write-ups — plus a structured work-style assessment so you see how they operate under pressure.

What does it cost?

Success fee — you pay only when you hire. No retainer, no charge for shortlists or interviews. The exact fee is confirmed on the first call.
