FAQ about hiring Fastlane developers

Where can I find Fastlane developers?

You are looking to find someone who knows how to use Fastlane to automate releasing mobile apps; thus, your ideal candidates come from a group of talented engineers within the iOS & Android world. You might have some luck by joining community discussions dedicated to releasing apps – this could mean participating in forums or just reading through blog posts on different platforms. Another way is to check the thematic meetups and conferences. Job sites like Dice or GlassDoor should help, too (use specific keywords such as “Mobile app automation and Deployment”).

Finally, there are platforms built to connect those with a need in specific technical fields, such as Fastlane (which simplifies everything); you guessed it — it’s Lemon.io. We will find the Software Engineer directly for your request from our pre-vetted community from over 50 countries in only 48 hours or less.

What is the no-risk trial period for hiring Fastlane developers on Lemon.io?

The perfect Fastlane developer for handling all of your automation needs when deploying mobile apps is critical — especially in a competitive market that rewards fast shipping cycles. That’s why, at Lemon.io, every developer comes with a 20-hour no-risk paid trial. You can work directly with candidates using the Fastlane toolset and evaluate their expertise in a project context relevant to your exact requirements.

As a bonus, you are always covered with our replacement guarantee, too. Just note — in 99% of our cooperations, our client don’t use the replacement as an option because they are pleased with their subscriptions.

Is there a high demand for Fastlane developers?

It’s not common to see “Fastlane developer” as a specific job posting, but if you’re an iOS or Android developer and know how to use Fastlane effectively, it will really help you get hired. Many companies now have dedicated mobile app development teams — especially in on-demand services: ride-sharing, food delivery, social networking, just to name a few. These types of businesses rely heavily upon seamless user experiences, which often involve quickly pushing updates to their mobile userbase.

Understanding this popular tool helps streamline those intricate, often tedious steps that go into making a new app (or just adding a feature): writing tests, building for distribution on different phone operating systems.

How quickly can I hire a Fastlane developer through Lemon.io?

At Lemon.io, we prioritize speed; we connect you with a curated shortlist of pre-vetted Fastlane developers within 48 hours or less of discussing your project. From there, you take control. Additional onboarding steps are needed for your company, which can make the process slower. Typically, clients successfully onboard their new Fastlane developer in just a few days.

What are the main strengths of Lemon.io’s platform?

Lemon.io finds talent everywhere — our global team is able to match companies with skilled software engineers from over 50 different countries.

We hand-select all of our developers via a challenging assessment and code interview process (leading to a 1% candidate acceptance rate); this guarantees you’re only introduced to proven talent.

Need someone on retainer? Searching for a long-term, permanent fit? Lemon.io offers a variety of engagement options, covering contract and direct hire (depending on your aims).

What is the vetting process for developers at Lemon.io?

To make sure that you’re connected with a fit Fastlane expert, we run a multi-stage vetting process:

1. First, we ask candidates to highlight their work history — specifically, any experience they’ve had related to automating processes for mobile apps using the Fastlane toolset.
2. A recruiter takes a closer look at their CVs and does background checks on the applicant, comparing what’s in there with professional networking platforms like LinkedIn.
3. The candidates need to take the technical test during the screening call with our recruiter (using a service like Coderbyte) – measuring proficiency with Ruby and solving mobile app automation challenges across platforms.
4. Lastly, after being shortlisted, candidates must undergo a final, in-depth interview with our tech interviewer — often consisting of live coding sessions.

How can your business benefit from hiring a Fastlane developer?

A developer who uses Fastlane can make your app release go more smoothly. They help speed up the building, testing, and putting out new apps; this frees up your team so they can spend more time on what’s really important (creating and building the new feature itself).

This is perfect for any company that makes apps, whether they be for finances, buying and selling things online, games or even those social media platforms — because you want your product released as soon as it’s ready. Not only does the whole process becomes faster but it also minimizes potential risks while simultaneously improving overall customer satisfaction.
