The Mission M.O.

What does it take to create something special?

If your talent is not properly sourced, screened, assigned, onboarded, coached, trained, and motivated, you won’t get anywhere. We get it, but more often than not unless you have scale and expertise, this is nearly impossible to get right. That is why we built Mission, so all companies can tap into high quality engineering capability. Our talent is thoroughly vetted, our teams are custom-assembled, and all our members and missions are actively supported through our proprietary platform.

A closer look at what our marketplace provides.

We gave you the quick list earlier, so let’s take a closer look at some of the most standout features from our platform. As you read earlier, the full list of benefits is long. Get in touch today to learn more about the rest.

Expert vetting

All of our talent goes through a 5 step vetting and ID verification process. We work with specific technology stack experts in our network to run both coding challenge reviews and technical interviews, while our talent team vets for key soft skills required to be a Mission member.

This will save you hours of sifting through dozens of applications, and screening calls.

Transparency & better-coordinated work

All other talent marketplaces stop at connecting you with talent. With Mission that is just the beginning.

Leveraging our proprietary software, team leadership is able to stay on top of team health and performance week by week throughout the entire build. This leads to more active management and support, and increased team morale and productivity.

Data-driven transparency and clear communication, allows the whole team to stay synced from day one to delivery.

Built-in coaching & mentorship

Your hires will have access to mentors as well as targeted coaching based on specific data points surfaced through our platform. By identifying opportunities for improvement in the flow of work, our members can increase their impact on your mission.

Experts when you need them

We have seasoned experts available for your team whenever they’re needed to provide guidance on advanced topics, and help navigate specific challenges related to programming language or technologies.

Fractional experts let you get the both of best worlds, the targetted expertise you need to move forward, with a reasonable hourly price point.

“Working with Mission has been one of the decisions with the most benefits in my career. As a software developer, we may have to work on the same projects for a long period of time, which can make our tasks redundant or even boring. This is a fact that I have never encountered at Mission, we have the opportunity to work on several different projects but above all, we have the opportunity to choose them.”
