Questions
Hiring a full-stack developer
Something else on your mind? Our Australian team can talk it through.
What tech stacks do your full-stack developers cover?
React/Next.js, Vue.js, Node.js, Python/Django, PHP/Laravel, .NET, and AWS or GCP for cloud. We match to your specific stack requirements.
How do they integrate with our sprint cadence?
They join your standups, sprints, and code reviews as a fully embedded team member. Jira, Linear, GitHub — whichever workflow you use.
Can they own a feature from spec to deployment?
Yes. Senior full-stack developers take features from design handoff to production deployment independently.
How do we handle code review and quality?
Code reviews via pull requests are standard. We recommend including offshore developers in your standard PR process from day one.
What's the time zone overlap with Australia?
Philippine Standard Time is AEST minus 3 hours in summer, minus 2 in winter. You get at least 5–6 hours of direct overlap on a standard AEST working day.
