Hire the specialist. Skip the middleman. In hours.

XpertDirect scores every applicant against your brief, and you only see the top band — specialists who have confirmed they are interested and available. Just direct hiring.

Focused today on Data, ML & AI Engineering, Platform & Infrastructure, and Security Engineering.

  • No middle layer

    Message, interview, make an offer. No account manager, no gatekeeper, no forwarded CVs. You agree scope, rates, salary and start date yourself.

  • They said yes first

    Specialists reach you only after reading your brief and confirming they are interested and available.

  • The rate they set

    Each specialist sets their own rates and salary. Nobody marks it up or negotiates it on your behalf.

  • No hire, no pay

    Free to register, no subscription, no retainer. The fee falls due when you hire, and not before.

This is direct hiring.

Two axes define the market. One quadrant solves it: matched to your brief, paid directly to the specialist, with a 5% platform fee.

Layered means a third party stands between you and the specialist: it curates who you see, sets or marks up the rate, or holds the contract. Direct means you see the specialist, they set the rate, and you agree terms with them.
