Hello, Sailor!

We've been expecting you. Our community is eager for new members.

Develocraft is an international IT & Engineering workforce provider from Gdańsk. We blend our passion for creating real business impact with our love for our team, from recruiters to developers. <3

We see ourselves as your agent, not your employer. We're here to help you get what YOU want. If you don't like an offer, we'll find another. If you're aiming for the Champions League glory next season, Cristiano, we sure won't try to set up an interview with Manchester United's team. ;)

Why work with us? We're a remote-first company (though some clients prefer hybrid) and still fresh (6 years on the market), so you can have a real impact here. We're growing fast, ensuring a team of quality you can rely on.

Our experts are here to support you. Whether you work in our team or as a consultant for a client, we'll try to design a career path with you, not just slot you into a role and hope for the best.
