Contract staffing gives Graz, Austria teams flexible, project-based engineering capacity without permanent headcount. Pitch N Hire supplies vetted contract engineers — primarily from India — employed and compliance-managed through its Employer of Record, so a Graz company can staff a project for a fixed period and scale down cleanly when it ends.
Contract staffing provides engineers for a defined period or project rather than as permanent employees — ideal for fixed-scope builds, seasonal peaks, or covering a gap while you recruit. Pitch N Hire supplies vetted contract talent, mainly from India, and employs each contractor through its Employer of Record so contracts, payroll, tax and compliance are handled correctly and you carry no permanent-headcount liability. Contractors work under your direction inside your process, and you can extend, convert or release them as the project requires. This flexibility is useful for teams whose workload is uneven or who want to try talent before committing to a permanent or offshore-team arrangement.
Define the project, duration, skills and number of contractors you need. We agree on start date, extension options and how success will be measured.
PNH proposes vetted contract engineers with the right skills and availability from its India talent pool, usually within days, with profiles and rates.
You interview and choose; PNH puts each contractor on a compliant contract through its Employer of Record, so there is no permanent liability or entity for you to manage.
Contractors join your tools and sprints and deliver under your direction for the agreed term, with PNH handling payroll, compliance and administration.
At the end of the term you extend, convert to a longer arrangement, or release cleanly — flexible capacity that matches an uneven or project-driven workload.
Contract staffing fits situations where you need capacity for a defined window, not forever:
Graz is the centre of Austria's automotive and mobility engineering, home to AVL — one of the world's largest independent powertrain and testing companies — plus a magna-linked manufacturing cluster and a growing semiconductor presence around NXP. The city's economy leans heavily on hardware-adjacent software, embedded systems, simulation and testing, creating specialist demand for engineers that a mid-sized city's talent pool cannot always meet locally.
Graz talent is distinctively strong in embedded systems, C/C++, automotive software (AUTOSAR), simulation, and increasingly machine learning and computer vision, fed by Graz University of Technology's respected engineering faculties. The pool is high-quality but comparatively small and specialist-heavy, so senior embedded and platform roles can be slow to fill — a reason local employers extend teams offshore for scale.
Graz developer pay generally sits below Vienna, reflecting lower living costs — senior engineers often in the region of EUR 52k–80k gross, with premiums for embedded and automotive-software specialists. Teams that need to stretch budgets or add niche skills quickly combine local Graz hires with offshore India-based engineers sourced and employed through PNH.
For Graz automotive and semiconductor teams, PNH provides an offshore extension of the team: vetted India-based engineers — including embedded, backend and data profiles — employed through an Employer of Record on CET-overlapping hours, to expand delivery capacity for hardware-adjacent and platform programmes without adding to local salary budgets.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Graz team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
