An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that legally employs workers on your behalf in a country where you have no entity, taking on payroll, tax withholding, benefits, contracts and statutory compliance while the worker delivers under your day-to-day direction. Pitch N Hire's EOR strength is India: it lets a business anywhere hire and retain Indian engineering talent compliantly — with correct employment contracts, payroll and provident-fund/tax handling — without registering an Indian subsidiary. This removes the cost, delay and legal risk of setting up a foreign entity, and pairs naturally with staff augmentation when you want PNH to both source and employ your offshore team.
You identify the person you want to employ in India — either someone Pitch N Hire sourced for you, or a candidate you found yourself who you want employed compliantly.
PNH issues a locally-compliant Indian employment contract with the correct terms, benefits and statutory entitlements, so the engagement is legally sound from day one.
The employee is onboarded onto PNH's Indian payroll, with tax, provident fund and benefits configured correctly — no Indian entity or local finance function needed on your side.
The employee works under your day-to-day direction, in your tools and process, while PNH remains the legal employer of record for compliance purposes.
PNH runs monthly payroll, tax filings, statutory contributions and HR administration, and keeps everything compliant as regulations change — you get a report, not a paperwork burden.
As your Employer of Record in India, Pitch N Hire takes on the full employment burden:
Plovdiv is Bulgaria's second-largest city and an increasingly credible technology base, offering lower costs than Sofia and a broadening software-services sector. Its economy combines a young IT community with a substantial manufacturing and industrial footprint anchored by the Trakia Economic Zone, one of the country's largest industrial areas. That mix creates demand for both application developers and engineers serving embedded, automation and industrial-software needs across the region.
Plovdiv's developer pool is smaller and younger than Sofia's but growing, with strengths in web and application development, .NET, JavaScript and PHP, plus rising embedded and automation work tied to local industry. Plovdiv University 'Paisii Hilendarski' and technical colleges supply graduates, and lower living costs aid retention. For specialist or senior-heavy roles, though, the local market can be thin — a reason teams add offshore capacity.
Plovdiv developer pay generally runs below Sofia levels, reflecting lower living costs, with senior engineers often in the region of BGN 55,000–100,000 gross per year. Employers stretching budgets or scaling delivery quickly frequently combine local Plovdiv hires with offshore India-based engineers sourced through PNH to keep blended costs competitive.
For Plovdiv's software and industrial-technology employers, PNH builds an offshore India-based engineering pod, vetted for the required stack and overlapping working hours with EET for daily collaboration. Employment and compliance run through PNH's Employer of Record, so a Plovdiv team can scale general software delivery without straining a still-maturing local talent pool.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Plovdiv 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.
