A Complete Guide to Hiring Front End Talent

Contents (4 sections)

TL;DR: Hire senior front-end developers in Southeast Asia for $2,400–$6,500/mo. Save up to 75% vs US salaries. Pre-vetted React, Next.js, Vue, and TypeScript talent in 24 hours.

Why Companies Are Hiring Front-End Developers Remotely

Front-end engineering is the difference between a product that converts and one that does not. Senior US front-end engineers average $125,000–$165,000 per year and take 6–10 weeks to hire. Southeast Asian front-end talent delivers the same React, Next.js, and TypeScript depth at $2,400–$6,500 per month, with shortlists in 24 hours.

We worked with a US-based marketing analytics startup that needed two senior front-end engineers to rebuild their dashboard from a slow legacy Backbone app to React + tRPC. Local hiring stalled at six weeks. Through Second Talent they had vetted profiles in 24 hours and shipped the new dashboard 8 weeks later — cutting page loads from 6 seconds to 700ms.
