Staffing companies screen CVs against a job description. We test every engineer in a real codebase, with AI tools off and with their own agents on, the way we hire for our own builds. [How we vet](https://www.miyagami.com/how-we-vet) [Our story](https://www.miyagami.com/about#our-story) Definition ### AI-native engineer An AI-native engineer builds products with AI tools as a core part of how they work. They break the work into tasks an agent can handle, review and test everything that comes back, and stay accountable for the result in production. Because the agent writes much of the code, judgement, verification and context matter more than typing speed.

If yours isn't here, we're happy to help. [Contact us](https://www.miyagami.com/contact) What is an AI-native engineer, and how is it different from an AI engineer? An AI-native engineer builds products with AI tools as a core part of how they work: planning the work, running the tools, reviewing what they produce and catching them when they're wrong. An AI engineer builds and operates the models themselves: fine-tuning, evaluation, retrieval and serving. We place both, and we'll tell you which one you need. How do you vet engineers? In two assessments in a real codebase. The first tests fundamentals with AI tools switched off, starting with communication and English, and the second tests how they work with their own agents running. You receive both scorecards for each engineer before you meet them. How quickly can someone start? You get a shortlist within three working days of your brief and can hire within five working days. The engineer starts on the date you agree. A comparable local senior hire takes three to four months. What does it cost? A fixed monthly fee per engineer that covers employment, payroll and compliance. The calculator compares it with the all-in cost of hiring locally in your country, in your currency. There's no recruitment fee and nothing to pay upfront. Which timezone do the engineers work in? They're based in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang, Vietnam, and work to a European overlap window, with full overlap in the CET afternoon, so they join your stand-ups and reviews during your working day. Your account manager is in Amsterdam, in your timezone. What if it doesn't work out? We replace the engineer at our cost, with no charge for the handover period. Engagements are full-time with a three-month minimum. Let's talk ## Get a shortlist within three days You share the roles and the stack in a short form or a thirty-minute call. Within three working days you get named senior engineers to review, each with both scorecards, and you can hire within five.
