Hire Software Developers in Egypt
For companies in Europe, North America, and the Gulf that want to hire skilled developers directly. ERAMOVA sources, screens, and shortlists candidates — on-site or remote — so you interview only the best fit and make the hire.
How hiring developers in Egypt works with ERAMOVA
ERAMOVA's recruitment is a one-time hiring service: you share the role, stack, and requirements; we source and screen candidates — including a technical screening when the role calls for it — and you receive a curated shortlist, typically within days. You run the final interview and hire the developer directly onto your team. The recruitment fee is a one-time fee equal to one month of the hired developer's gross salary, and both on-site and remote roles are covered. Whether you call them software developers or software engineers in Egypt, the process is the same — and it covers Egyptian software engineers for on-site roles as well as remote software developers from Egypt who work for your team abroad.
Why hire developers in Egypt?
Egypt gives engineering teams access to a deep, skilled developer pool at a competitive cost, within working hours that fit Europe and the Gulf.
Employment cost advantage
Fully loaded employment costs for equivalent developer talent in Egypt are typically 40–60% lower than in selected higher-cost markets; actual savings vary by role and seniority.
Deep tech talent pool
Engineers across backend, frontend, full-stack, mobile, QA, DevOps, cloud, and data, from a large and growing workforce.
Time zone overlap
Egypt's working hours overlap a full business day with Europe and the Gulf, so stand-ups and reviews happen in real time — nearshore software developers from Egypt for European teams, near-time-zone for the Gulf.
English & Arabic
Developers communicate day to day in both English and Arabic — a natural fit for international teams.

Direct hire vs managed remote team vs freelancers
When hiring a developer directly through recruitment makes more sense than a managed remote team or freelancers.
| Criteria | Direct hire (ERAMOVA recruitment) | Managed remote team | Freelancers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engagement | You employ the developer directly | Works for you, managed by ERAMOVA | Per project or hour |
| Best for | A permanent role on your team | Ongoing capacity without HR/payroll setup | Short, well-defined tasks |
| Who manages HR & payroll | Your company | ERAMOVA (per engagement scope) | Self-managed |
| Cost model | One-time fee = one month's gross salary | Monthly employment-operations rate | Hourly/project rates vary |
| Time to candidates | Curated shortlist, typically within days | Sourced and onboarded for you | Immediate but variable quality |
