Companies in Busan, South Korea that want to employ engineering talent in India without opening a local entity can use Pitch N Hire as their Employer of Record. PNH legally employs each hire on your behalf and manages payroll, tax, benefits and statutory compliance, so a Busan business can build a compliant offshore team quickly and focus on the work rather than the paperwork.
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:
Busan is South Korea's second-largest city and its dominant port, so its economy leans toward shipping, logistics, maritime industries and manufacturing, alongside a designated financial hub in Munhyeon aimed at growing back-office and fintech roles. The technology base is smaller and younger than Seoul's but expanding, helped by government-backed innovation districts and a lower cost of living that appeals to relocating startups.
Busan's engineering pool is smaller than Seoul's and skews toward logistics-tech, IoT, embedded and enterprise systems tied to its port and manufacturing base, with graduates from Pusan National University and local institutes. Depth in niche or English-first international roles is thinner than the capital's, so companies scaling specialised or senior teams in Busan frequently supplement locally recruited staff with offshore engineers for reach and speed.
Busan developer pay generally runs below Seoul's, with senior software engineers often in the region of KRW 55M–95M per year depending on employer and specialism. The lower local cost base is part of Busan's appeal, and offshore augmentation from India can lower the blended rate further while adding scarce specialised skills that the smaller local pool may not readily cover.
For Busan teams, offshore augmentation offers reach the local market may lack: PNH sources and vets India-based engineers, overlapping the Busan morning through midday since India sits about 3.5 hours behind KST, which supports daily stand-ups and handoffs. Employment and compliance run through PNH's Employer of Record, so a Busan company scales capacity with no Korean entity or payroll to establish.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Busan 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.
