Contract staffing gives Montreal, Canada 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 Montreal 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:
Montreal is a global centre for artificial-intelligence research, home to Mila and pioneering deep-learning academics, alongside one of the world's largest video-game development clusters and growing aerospace and enterprise-software sectors. Bilingual talent, comparatively affordable living and generous provincial R&D incentives have attracted heavy investment, creating sustained demand for ML, game and software engineers across the metro area.
Montreal's talent pool is exceptionally strong in machine learning and deep learning, game engineering (Unity/Unreal, C++), and enterprise software, fed by McGill, Université de Montréal and Mila. French-English bilingualism is common and salaries sit below the top Canadian hubs, though senior AI and specialist roles remain competitive — a reason local teams extend capacity offshore.
Montreal developer pay generally runs below Toronto and Vancouver, reflecting lower living costs — senior engineers often around C$100k–C$140k, with premiums for AI/ML skills. Employers scaling delivery or adding niche capabilities frequently blend local Montreal hires with offshore India-based engineers to manage blended cost while keeping pace.
For Montreal's AI-heavy and game-development employers, PNH supplies offshore engineering pods: vetted India-based developers and ML engineers employed via an Employer of Record, with hours overlapping the Eastern-time morning, so teams can scale software delivery without stretching a specialist-heavy local market.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Montreal 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.
