- Recruitment agency fees: 15%–25% of annual base salary ($15,000–$30,000).
- Payroll taxes & health benefits: Adds an extra 15%–20% on top of base pay.
- Equipment & software tooling: $4,000+ per engineer setup.
- Severance & offboarding risk: Legal and severance liabilities if market demands shift.
With Sheba Technologies' staff augmentation model, all overhead is wrapped into one transparent monthly invoice in USD with zero hidden markups.
