G2i
OneChild
OneChild, a non-profit organization, faced significant challenges with an overstaffed 12-member offshore development team. Despite working for a year on what was intended to be a 6-month project, the team struggled with technical debt, underdelivered a functional MVP, and produced code that failed to meet industry standards and best practices. To address these issues, OneChild strategically downsized and sought individual contractors for key roles. They reduced their development team to four crucial positions: a senior tech lead, a React Native developer, a junior engineer, and a QA specialist. G2i's rigorous vetting process, access to recommended profiles, and a global talent pool enabled OneChild to find proven React Native experts within their project budget. The strategic shift to handpicked independent contractors, combined with strategic resource management, resulted in a significant surge in productivity. The new four-person team notably outpaced the previous offshore team's output, delivering higher quality code and achieving 2X the production speed. This enabled OneChild to make remarkable progress on their Bridgely mobile app, getting it into users' hands faster than anticipated.
Differential
Differential, a digital product studio with both agency and SaaS product lines, faced significant challenges in staffing their technical teams. Their needs constantly shifted, requiring the ability to scale engineers up or down rapidly while maintaining high quality. Hiring simultaneously for quick-onboarding agency projects and long-term internal product work stretched their internal capacity, leaving engineering leaders with insufficient time to thoroughly screen and vet candidates. Team and cultural fit were critical, adding complexity beyond just technical ability, and they lacked the flexibility to staff effectively for varied project durations. G2i became Differential's strategic hiring partner, providing pre-screened, world-class engineers carefully matched not only for technical skills but also for communication style, problem-solving approach, and team fit. This approach made the experience feel like adding new internal team members, fostering seamless collaboration through a shared Slack channel and constant communication. G2i took the burden of heavy screening and vetting off Differential's plate, prioritizing engineer mindset and cultural alignment. They also offered structural flexibility, adapting to both short-term 3-month builds and longer-term contributors for internal SaaS development. With G2i, Differential successfully scaled its engineering function with enhanced speed and confidence. They saved significant time on vetting processes, moved faster on project delivery, and effectively avoided the issues associated with mismatched hires. Specifically, 10 engineers were placed across both their client and product teams. The average time to fill roles was reduced to just 10 days, making their hiring process 12 times faster than traditional methods. This partnership enabled Differential to focus more on building great products, supported by a reliable and agile engineering talent pipeline.
Lattice
Lattice, a people management platform, sought to develop a simple yet engaging cross-platform mobile application for their One-on-One solution. They required a React Native solution that would align with their existing React, GraphQL, and Relay web application stack, demanding specialized expertise in this area. G2i undertook the development of Lattice's mobile application using React Native, seamlessly integrating with their established tech stack and internal development workflow. The project focused on achieving maximum design adherence and component reusability, with an estimation of 27 unique components and 20 unique views across 5 initial sprints. Close collaboration between the G2i and Lattice teams ensured a smooth development process. The project was completed significantly ahead of schedule, reducing the initially planned 5 sprints to just 3 sprints. Over a 10-week period, G2i contributed a total of 880 hours of work, achieving maximum design adherence and high customer satisfaction. Additionally, G2i provided extra value by implementing UI loading enhancements like shimmer placeholders and integrating automated end-to-end testing with Detox into Lattice's CI loop.
BatAround
BatAround, a mixed-reality "sportainment" platform, faced significant challenges in scaling its engineering capacity. Their leadership, experienced in other tech sectors, had a limited network in this specific space, making it difficult to find qualified engineers. Hiring through traditional recruiters often resulted in large volumes of resumes and a lack of technical context, consuming valuable leadership time that could have been spent on product development. G2i provided a solution by offering access to a global network of pre-vetted engineers, eliminating the need for BatAround to sift through numerous unqualified candidates. G2i's rigorous technical screening process ensured that only candidates with a validated technical baseline reached BatAround's team. This approach transformed hiring from a broad, time-consuming search into a focused decision-making process, allowing BatAround to evaluate candidates quickly and confidently. Through this partnership, BatAround successfully contracted 9 engineers from G2i's vetted pipeline. They achieved a reported ~90% success rate for the quality of engineers hired, a significant improvement over a typical 50% success rate without prior working relationships. This strategic hiring process also substantially reduced leadership time spent on candidate screening and minimized disruption through efficient transitions and rapid backfills.
Shopmonkey
Shopmonkey, a cloud-based auto repair shop management platform, needed to rapidly scale its engineering team after an 18-month codebase rewrite. The company aimed to fix bugs and stabilize the platform but faced challenges in hiring top-tier engineers quickly due to high standards and tight timelines. They also struggled with geographic flexibility across the U.S., Canada, and Latin America, alongside the logistical complexities of secure laptop distribution and compliance. Internal bandwidth was insufficient to manage the demanding hiring process efficiently. G2i implemented a precision hiring and seamless process to address Shopmonkey's needs. They delivered engineer profiles, complete with 45-minute technical interview recordings, within 48 hours for immediate review. This allowed Shopmonkey's engineering managers to evaluate candidates efficiently, saving over 60 engineering hours in screening. The process facilitated lightning-fast onboarding, with the first four engineers contributing their initial Pull Requests within 15 days, 6 hours, and 55 minutes of the initial call. The partnership resulted in 20 engineers being hired in record time, significantly accelerating Shopmonkey's scaling efforts. The company saved one full month of engineering time by eliminating manual resume reviews and unnecessary interviews. G2i engineers made a substantial impact, delivering 443 Pull Requests within the third quarter alone. Onboarding time was dramatically reduced to 1.5 days, allowing engineers to contribute almost immediately. This collaboration also saw engineers delivering PRs within 7 days of their first interview, leading to a noticeable improvement in engineering quality and a shift in customer complaints towards minor UX issues.

Seamless experience and great talent!
Jeremy Sulek
CEO
I've worked with G2i for a while now, and they have always been consistent on quality candidates. They have worked really well with the way we work, offering flexibility at every stage of the process. Check-ins are async, there are no NPS reports or time intensive update calls, just focused on delivering great people in record time. We work with multiple vendors but G2i have become the go-to vendor for us. Their portal is very good, again focused on what we care about.
Abe Petrillo
CTO
I've contracted four engineers through this company and have been consistently impressed with their service. Their vetting process is thorough, ensuring I only connect with top-tier talent. What sets them apart is their follow-through — they don't just connect you with candidates and disappear; they stay involved, checking in regularly and asking how they can improve. They're not just a funnel for talent, but a genuine partner who supports you throughout the entire process. Highly recommended!
Mark Nausha
COO
For anyone looking to source engineering talent, G2i Inc. is one of the best organizations I've ever worked with. Whether you are going to burst resources or have an eye on a permanent hire, their platform takes 60%+ of the effort out of interviewing and screening. Their service offering is truly unique, and over the years they have added tons of features and a swath of additional engineering disciplines beyond their initial core competence of React devs. From my perspective, startups who need to move fast, who don't have a lot of bandwidth for recruiting and interviewing, can't do better than G2i!
Ben Coats
