We're a concierge service, not a marketplace.
Most offshore staffing companies hand you a database and leave you to sort through hundreds of unvetted profiles. Odesa works differently. Founded by Val Narodetsky, a Ukrainian-American entrepreneur based in Lighthouse Point, Florida, Odesa personally matches every client with hand-selected senior developers from Eastern Europe. Every engineer in our network has been technically assessed, English-evaluated, and background-checked before you ever see a profile.

Three ways to hire Eastern European developers.
Most Popular
Add pre-vetted senior developers from Eastern Europe directly to your existing engineering team. They work your hours, attend your standups, use your tools, and ship your code. Start with a 2-week risk-free trial period. Scale up or down monthly with no long-term contracts required. Staff augmentation is the fastest way to extend your development capacity without the overhead of traditional hiring.
See how much you save hiring offshore developers through Odesa.
Growth-stage companies that hire Eastern European developers through Odesa typically save 40-60% compared to hiring equivalent talent in the United States. US costs include salary, benefits, payroll taxes, and overhead that add 25-35% on top of base compensation. Odesa’s hourly model eliminates all of that. Use this calculator to estimate your annual savings based on the roles you need to fill.

Onboard with Zero Risk
Not another staffing agency. A tech talent concierge built for growth-stage companies.
Odesa was built because growth-stage companies were hemorrhaging time and money on broken hiring processes. Traditional agencies charge 20% of salary and take months to deliver. Offshore marketplaces give you a database and wish you luck. We do neither.
4.2-Day Average Placement vs 45+ Day Industry Standard
Our average time from discovery call to onboarded developer is 4.2 business days. Traditional tech recruitment takes 45-90 days. We move 10x faster because our Eastern European talent network is pre-vetted and ready to deploy, not sourced from scratch for each new engagement.
Founder-Led Matching, Not Algorithmic Sorting
Val and Zhanna personally review every developer-client match. This is not a platform where you sift through hundreds of profiles hoping to find someone qualified. We handle the vetting, the matching, and the quality control so you only interview pre-qualified senior candidates who match your specific technical and cultural requirements.
US Company, Eastern European Talent, Real Cost Savings
Odesa is headquartered in Lighthouse Point, Florida. You sign US contracts with US legal protections. Your developers work from Ukraine, Poland, Romania, and Bulgaria, providing 6-8 hours of daily timezone overlap with US East Coast teams at 40-60% lower cost than equivalent talent in San Francisco, New York, or Austin.
94% Retention Because We Match on More Than Technical Skills
Our 94% twelve-month retention rate is nearly unheard of in offshore staffing. We achieve this by matching developers to teams based on technical capability, communication style, work ethic, and cultural alignment. Your Odesa developer becomes a real member of your engineering team, not a temporary contractor who disappears in six months.
Pre-vetted senior developers available for immediate placement.
Every developer in the Odesa network has passed a multi-stage vetting process that includes technical coding challenges, system design interviews, English communication evaluation, and professional background verification. Only 3% of applicants make it through our screening. Below is a sample of currently available engineers.

Real results from companies that hired Eastern European developers through Odesa.
"We needed three senior React developers who could work US Eastern time. Odesa had profiles in front of us in 2 days. All three engineers are still with us 14 months later and the quality of their code is indistinguishable from our San Francisco-based team. The cost savings alone justified the switch from domestic hiring."
"I was skeptical about hiring offshore developers until I tried Odesa. The 2-week trial completely removed the risk for us. Our Python engineer from Ukraine started as an individual contributor and is now leading our entire data engineering team. Val personally made sure the match was right from day one."
"We have used TopTal, Upwork, and two traditional staffing agencies before finding Odesa. This is the only company where the developers actually feel like part of our engineering team. The $3,999 flat-fee recruitment service paid for itself in the first week compared to what other agencies were quoting us."
Common questions about hiring Eastern European developers through Odesa.
How fast can Odesa match me with an Eastern European developer?
Our average time from discovery call to onboarded developer is 4.2 business days. We achieve this speed because our talent network is pre-vetted and ready to deploy, not sourced from scratch for each engagement. After your initial 15-minute call with Val, we present 2-3 hand-matched developer profiles within 48 hours. Once you select and interview your top candidates, onboarding begins immediately.
What does the 2-week risk-free trial include?
During the first two weeks of any staff augmentation engagement, you evaluate the developer working with your real codebase, attending your standups, and collaborating with your team. If the fit is not right for any reason — technical skills, communication, cultural alignment — you pay nothing and we replace the developer immediately at no cost. There is no obligation and no cancellation fee.
How much do Eastern European developers cost through Odesa?
What countries do your developers work from?
Our developers are based in Ukraine, Poland, Romania, and Bulgaria. These countries produce world-class engineering talent with strong computer science education systems and deep technical training programs. Eastern European developers provide 6-8 hours of daily timezone overlap with US East Coast teams, making real-time collaboration during business hours practical and efficient.
Is Odesa a US-based company?
Yes. Odesa.co is headquartered in Lighthouse Point, Florida. You sign US contracts with US legal protections. Our founder Val Narodetsky is a Ukrainian-American entrepreneur who has built and sold three previous companies. Having a US-based operation means you get the cost advantages of Eastern European talent with the legal security, communication standards, and accountability of working with a domestic company.
How does Odesa compare to TopTal, Upwork, or traditional staffing agencies?
TopTal and Upwork are marketplace platforms where you search through profiles yourself. Traditional agencies charge 15-25% of annual salary and take 45-90 days to deliver candidates. Odesa is a concierge service: we personally match you with pre-vetted senior developers in 4.2 days, charge flat transparent pricing ($45-75/hr for staff augmentation or $3,999/hire for recruitment), and provide a risk-free trial or 90-day guarantee. Our 94% retention rate speaks to the quality of our matching process.
