From $45/hr · month-to-month staff augmentation

Engineering partner for growth-stage companies
Start with the work
Starting an infrastructure-as-code foundation or refactoring an existing Terraform repository? We shape the shortlist around your providers, modules, environments and state management. Review comparable work before deciding who to interview.
Look beyond writing configuration. Discuss plan reviews, access controls, state protection, drift and recovery from failed changes. Agree on approval steps and testing before automation can change production infrastructure.
Include reusable modules, documentation and handover in the brief. Evaluate how candidates explain tradeoffs and work within your engineering process. Confirm cloud access, working-hour overlap and delivery goals before the engagement.
Technical fit
Tell us which skills are essential and which can be learned on the job. We match the search to your responsibilities, then your team evaluates the shortlist.

Client relationships

“We started seeing strong engineer profiles from Odesa within days, and the process from tech interview to onboarding was smooth and straightforward. The remote team Val built for us now feels like part of our in-house team and has contributed to multiple product rollouts over the past year.”

“Val came through for us big time. He provided us with top-tier engineers very quickly.”

“We were impressed with their cost, speed, and having a US-based interface.”

Before you decide
Terraform staff augmentation starts at $45/hr on month-to-month terms. The final quote depends on experience, responsibilities and the agreed schedule. Direct recruitment is a separate $7,999 service per successful hire; engineer compensation is additional. Confirm scope and included services before hiring.
Odesa reports an average of 4.2 days from contract to first interview across engagements. Timing depends on your requirements, candidate availability and interview process. Agree on the shortlist criteria and target start date during the brief; the average is not a guaranteed onboarding date.
They work remotely: offshore from the EU and Eastern Europe, or nearshore from Latin America, with overlap on US hours agreed before the start. You contract with Odesa.co, a US company in Lighthouse Point, Florida, so terms, billing and support stay in the US. If the role must be on-site or hybrid, direct recruitment covers that.
Include your existing tools in the brief, whether that means Terragrunt, Pulumi, CloudFormation, Ansible or another platform. We match the shortlist to the work and provider experience you require. Evaluate each candidate’s hands-on experience instead of assuming one engineer covers every tool.
Yes. Staff augmentation adds an engineer to the team you manage. Define the tools, responsibilities, access requirements and working-hour overlap before the engagement. Any incident response or on-call coverage must be agreed explicitly; it is not automatically included in an hourly role.
Terraform supports multiple providers, but the role also needs knowledge of the services being managed. Specify the cloud platforms, resource types and account structure in your brief. Review relevant production experience, state management and change-safety practices during the interview.
Staff augmentation includes a two-week trial under agreed terms. Review fit, communication and delivery against the initial goals. Confirm notice, billing and replacement terms before work begins. Direct recruitment has a separate 90-day replacement guarantee defined by the agreement.
