Frequently asked questions
What does a Remote Software Developer do day-to-day?
Remote Software Developers spend their days writing, testing, and maintaining code across applications. They collaborate with product managers and designers through video calls, code reviews, and documentation, troubleshoot bugs, optimize performance, and participate in sprint planning and retrospectives. Unlike office-based roles, they work independently while staying connected with the team through async communication and scheduled standups.
What qualifications and experience should we look for?
Strong Remote Software Developers typically have 3+ years of professional development experience, mastery of at least one modern programming language, and hands-on experience with databases, APIs, and version control. Many hold a computer science degree or have completed coding bootcamps. Beyond technical skills, successful candidates demonstrate self-direction, clear written communication, and proven ability to work asynchronously without constant supervision.
How does ECLARO help us find the right Remote Software Developer?
ECLARO pre-vets candidates for technical depth, remote work experience, and cultural fit before presenting them to your team. We handle sourcing, background checks, and initial screening so you can focus on strategic technical interviews. Whether you need a developer for a specific tech stack, a contract role, or a full-time placement, ECLARO manages the entire hiring process and ensures smooth onboarding.
What should we expect regarding time zones and work hours?
ECLARO's remote developer placements cover US and Canadian time zones, with most available for standard North American business hours. We'll match you with candidates who can overlap with your team's core hours. During the placement process, we clarify availability and time zone preferences so there are no surprises once they start.
Can we hire remote software developers based in the Philippines?
Yes. Through its ECAPTIVE dedicated-team model, ECLARO hires developers in Metro Manila who work remotely for one client only, on that client's hours, using the client's tools and code review process. ECLARO handles the recruiting and provides the secure office and equipment. There is no minimum headcount, so you can start with one developer and add more as the work grows.
Ways to hire through ECLARO
ECLARO can fill this role through contract or contract-to-hire staffing, direct placement, an Employer of Record (EOR), recruitment process outsourcing (RPO), or a dedicated offshore team in the Philippines (ECAPTIVE).
