Tech teams in India · Vetted & compliantly employed

Tech talent in India
you can trust.

Compliant, India-based tech teams for global companies — vetted, legally employed, and managed by Prayas.

Pulse is our engineering-health check — point it at a repo and it returns one verdict in about 30 seconds. Try it on your own code, free.

  • Tech only. Not a generalist staffing platform.
  • India only. One country, done deeply.
  • Verifiable. Live repo-health reads for engineers.

Hiring tech talent in India is high-upside. Two things stop most companies.

Compliance risk

Entity setup, payroll, statutory filings, labour law. Getting it wrong is expensive, and getting it right is a project nobody wants to own.

You can't judge quality from a distance

Standups look fine. Tickets close. But you have no independent read on whether the work is actually any good.

Prayas removes both — with real accountability and real proof.

What we offer

The whole employer layer, handled.

  • Indian employment infrastructure

    We legally employ your people under our entity. You carry no local liability and need no Indian presence.

  • Payroll, tax & compliance

    Payslips, benefits, statutory deductions and filings — all run correctly, on time, every month.

  • Admin & local ops

    HR coordination, attendance, and day-to-day support on the ground so your team is looked after.

  • Vetting & role fit

    Engineers, designers, product managers — we assess people properly, not on paper. Our founder is a hands-on engineering leader, so technical depth is judged by someone who has done the job.

  • Engineering-health monitoring

    For your engineers, a live read on their repos via Pulse: change-failure rate, cycle time, review health. One clear verdict, whenever you want it.

  • Growth & scaling support

    Onboarding and scale planning as your team grows from one hire to many.

You keep full HR and project control of your people day to day. Prayas is the compliant employer-and-monitor layer behind them.

How it works

We build your team to your spec.

  1. You tell us the need

    Role, seniority, budget, timeline. The more specific, the better the match.

  2. We source and vet

    We find people in India against that exact spec and assess them properly before you ever see them.

  3. You choose

    We employ your pick under our entity and run all compliance from day one.

  4. You manage the work

    We handle everything else — payroll, tax, HR — plus a live engineering-health read whenever you want it.

Why Prayas

Specialists, not a platform.

Tech only, India only

We don't staff 77 countries and every job family. We do tech roles in India, which is why we know the market, the salaries, and the people.

Verifiable quality

For engineers, Pulse gives you a live health read on their repos. No other staffing or EOR provider offers this.

Real accountability

We employ and manage the team. Your relationship is with a person who answers the phone, not a support portal.

Full legal & tax compliance

Handled end to end, under our Indian entity, so the risk never lands on you.

12+ years of doing this

Backed by over a decade building and running engineering teams in India — including scaling a ~50-engineer technology consultancy, and building engineering-health metrics that went on to be adopted across many teams.
