Start hiring

How to hire kubernetes engineers

Tell us what you need. Meet matched people. Start with a trial.

01

Talk to One of Our Client Advisors

Tell us what you need from a kubernetes engineer: the role, skills, seniority, hours, and goals. An advisor helps you write a clear brief.

02

Review matched talent

We show you kubernetes engineers who already passed Sortie checks. You can meet them if you want a culture fit chat.

03

The right fit, guaranteed

Work with your new kubernetes engineer match for a trial period (pay only if satisfied), ensuring they're the right fit before starting the engagement.

Why less than 1% make the network

Every applicant goes through several steps. We check their skills, how they communicate, whether they are honest, and whether they can finish real work.

01

Language and professionalism

We check that they speak clearly, work well with others, and can talk to clients.

02

Skills tests

They take tests for the exact job. We score the work and see how they handle real tasks.

03

Live interview and coding

They sit a live interview with coding. They talk through problems and write code in the session.

04

Honesty and a real project

We watch for cheating, then ask them to finish a real take-home project before they can join.

What kubernetes engineers can do

Common ways Sortie kubernetes engineers help on a project.

Full kubernetes engineer work

Sortie kubernetes engineers help you clarify the need, do the work, and leave clear notes when they hand it off.

Real skill, not buzzwords

Each kubernetes engineer passed role tests. You get someone who has done this kind of work before.

Easy to work with

We check communication first. Your kubernetes engineer should be ready for meetings and updates from day one.

Matched to your hours

Tell us when your team works. We match kubernetes engineers who can overlap with you.

Try before you commit

Start with a short trial. Keep going only if it feels right, or ask us for someone else.

One person or a small team

Need one kubernetes engineer, or a few people together? We can help with either.
