The Brief
Tiro’s global reach enables us to understand the key issues surrounding location-based talent attraction. One such client, based in LA, was facing a major obstacle impacting a long-term project. They struggled to attract the right talent due to several key barriers: visa restrictions, a lack of talent within commutable distance, and the high cost of living in the area, which made relocation unattractive.
This was a crucial issue for the business and its future competitiveness. After an extensive competitor mapping exercise, it became clear that sourcing a US-based engineer would exceed the company’s hiring budget. Tiro proposed an alternative solution: identifying engineers in Europe with the specialised skills needed for the project. We conducted a thorough risk assessment around remote working logistics and possible workflow scenarios, ultimately offering a cost-effective solution by utilising the hiring budget to secure top European talent working remotely on contract.
Requirement
The client needed a Lead Electronics Design Engineer with expertise in systems, hardware design, validation, testing, and platform release.
