For companies in Basel, Switzerland, staff augmentation is the fastest way to add capacity: Pitch N Hire supplies vetted, India-based engineers who slot into your team on overlapping working hours, with no local entity to set up. You keep control of the roadmap while PNH handles sourcing, vetting, employment and compliance, so you scale delivery in weeks rather than months.
Staff augmentation lets you extend your existing team with dedicated external engineers who work under your direction, using your tools, standups and sprint process — rather than outsourcing a whole project. Pitch N Hire sources this talent primarily from India's large engineering pool, screens for the specific stack and seniority you need, and employs each engineer through its Employer of Record so payroll, tax and compliance are handled for you. Because there is no local entity, contract, or long recruitment cycle to manage, augmented engineers can typically start within weeks and scale up or down as the roadmap changes — a flexible, lower-blended-cost complement to permanent local hiring.
Tell us the roles, tech stack, seniority and team culture you need. We align on time-zone overlap, communication cadence and the outcomes you want the augmented engineers to own.
From its pre-vetted India talent pool, Pitch N Hire returns a shortlist of engineers screened for the exact skills and level — usually within days, with profiles, assessments and availability.
You interview the candidates yourself (technical and cultural fit) using structured scorecards, and pick the people you want. You stay in control of every hiring decision.
Selected engineers are employed through PNH's Employer of Record and onboarded into your tools, repositories and sprint process, so they are productive quickly with compliance already handled.
As the roadmap changes you add or release capacity with short notice — no severance risk, no entity overhead — while PNH manages ongoing payroll, retention and administration.
Pitch N Hire can augment your team across the full engineering stack and adjacent roles:
Basel is the heart of the global pharmaceutical and life-sciences industry, anchored by Roche and Novartis and a dense network of biotech, diagnostics and medical-device firms. Engineering demand here is heavily regulated and data-intensive — clinical data systems, bioinformatics, laboratory software and validated cloud platforms — and the specialised, compliance-aware talent these employers need is scarce and highly sought after locally.
Basel talent skews toward regulated, data-driven engineering: bioinformatics, clinical-data and laboratory-information systems, backend and cloud with a strong emphasis on validation, quality and GxP compliance. Skills in Python, Java, data engineering and healthcare interoperability standards are in steady demand. With pharma majors and their vendors competing for the same specialists, filling niche roles locally can be slow and costly.
Basel developer pay is high by European standards, with senior engineers frequently in the region of CHF 115k–160k plus employer costs, reflecting pharma sector budgets. Offshore augmentation from India typically provides comparable seniority at a much lower blended rate, so life-sciences teams often keep regulated, on-site work local while running an offshore pod for broader software delivery.
For Basel life-sciences and software teams, an offshore pod adds engineering capacity for non-regulated build work: PNH sources and vets India-based engineers, overlaps working hours with CET for collaboration in English, and manages employment and compliance through its Employer of Record, so there is no Swiss entity or payroll to establish.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Basel 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.
