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:
Chiang Mai, the largest city in northern Thailand, has grown a distinctive technology scene shaped by lower costs, a strong university presence and its status as one of Asia's leading digital-nomad and remote-work destinations. Local activity centres on software services, web and game development, and creative and tourism technology, alongside a large community of international freelancers and remote employees. The resident developer pool is far smaller than Bangkok's, so specialist and senior roles can be slow to fill locally.
Chiang Mai talent concentrates in web and mobile development, JavaScript, PHP, game and creative-tech work, supported by graduates from Chiang Mai University and a self-taught, community-driven developer culture. Quality is solid but the pool is small and geared toward services and freelance work, so employers building product teams or needing senior specialists at scale commonly reach beyond the city with offshore augmentation to meet delivery demands.
Chiang Mai developer salaries generally run below Bangkok, with senior engineers often in the region of THB 800,000 to 1.6 million gross per year, reflecting the city's lower living costs. Firms protecting scarce senior specialists for core work, or scaling delivery beyond a small local pool, frequently add offshore India-based engineers through PNH.
For Chiang Mai studios, agencies and product teams, PNH extends the team offshore with vetted India-based engineers employed through an Employer of Record, overlapping most of the working day with Indochina Time. This lets a small Chiang Mai operation take on larger programmes or fill senior gaps without straining a limited local talent pool.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Chiang Mai 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.
