QIS rates shown are samples. Actual rates vary with your requirements, the candidates, and market conditions at the time. The 15-minute call scopes yours exactly.

One senior engineer, fully loaded, one year.

The U.S. column is what a senior hire actually costs an employer once everything real is counted. The QIS column is the rate you pay. That's the whole comparison.

Comparing against a contractor instead? Zero out the taxes, benefits, and recruiting lines and put the contractor's annual cost in the base salary line.

What "all-in" means

The QIS figure is the rate you pay, billed monthly from our side. Payroll taxes, benefits, recruiting, HR, equipment, and the office are all our cost, already inside that number. Nothing gets added on your side. Your first invoice arrives a month after your engineer starts.

Where these numbers come from

The U.S. column uses mid-market averages for the selected developer level: base salary from published compensation data, statutory payroll taxes, and typical benefit and overhead costs. Your actual numbers will vary by city and role. Bring your own figures to the call and we'll run the comparison against them.
