FAQ about hiring Elixir developers

Where can I find Elixir developers?

The Elixir community is tight, but on the other hand, it’s not as large as Python’s. Thus, the first suggestion to hire Elixir developers is to check niche places dedicated to Elixir. These are Elixir forums, groups, or even meetups for people who work with the language. They can be more or less suitable places to publicly ask for recommendations, as well as a great spot to get a sense of the kind of people working with Elixir.

The other option is to just use regular tech job boards or go-to places like StackOverflow. However, the concentration of Elixir experts will be lower, so when looking through any site, we suggest using some keywords related to the Elixir framework itself, e.g., Phoenix.

Now, there is a shortcut of using platforms that “match” developers. One example is Lemon.io. This platform focuses on matching talented developers to those who need their project done.

What is the no-risk trial period for hiring Elixir developer on Lemon.io?

We get it, you need the best Elixir developer for your project – and Lemon.io is here to help with that. We provide an offer for a risk-free trial period, during which you get to see how the developer actually works and if they fit well. In paid 20 hours trial, you are able to assess the developer for their code quality and communication style while working on your project’s real tasks.

In addition, enjoy our risk-free substitution guarantee. We provide replacement in couple of days, max, if you are not satisfied with developer.

Are Elixir developers in demand?

Elixir has received massive traction over the years and even now, Elixir developers are definitely hotcakes. Why? Elixir is a functional programming language for building scalable and maintainable applications (specifically speaking microservices) thanks to its capability of handling concurrent workloads and real-time web application. The demand is produced by the increasing requirement for stable, high-performing systems specifically in web services, microservices and data processing areas.

This makes Elixir a perfect choice for an eager company that wants to have many reliable applications with almost zero downtime. And also this has resulted in an influx of experienced devs with different backgrounds and a growing ecosystem.

How quickly can I hire an Elixir developer through Lemon.io?

With a deep understanding of your individual project requirements, we do the work for you and match you with an expert developer that has both skill level & experience.
As a general rule, it takes us 24-48 hours to present you with an experienced Elixir developer. From there, you can interview them, or start right away.

How much does an Elixir developer charge per hour?

Because Elixir developers have a unique skill set, they are able to charge high hourly rates: between $60 to $130 on an average for an hour. Like all tech roles, there are several factors which affect the cost, from experience levels of developers to location and complexity of your project.

A top senior Elixir developer with an impressive talent in constructing scalable, reliable and distributed systems is clearly going to have a higher rate than someone new. Likewise, someone based in North America or Western Europe where the standard of living is higher will have a steeper fee than another region. The more niche and complex your project, the more likely you are to connect with a developer at the higher end of the range.

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

We have an intense vetting process that allows us to provide you with only the best. Here’s how it works:

1. We look at how experienced developer is in Elixir and related technologies like Phoenix, along with level experience. Additionally, we verify their language skills.
2. Our recruiters cross-check the resume of a developer with their online profiles like LinkedIn to verify this all correct.
3. A screen call with a mix of technical questions and code challenges from Coderbyte evaluates the developer floor competence on Elixir language.
4. The next stage includes a more thorough technical interview to gauge how the developer communicates, their coding style, and operational ability when collaborating with others. Often this stage will involve live coding challenges for the candidates to showcase their “real life” potential.

Through this process, we can guarantee that the Elixir workers made available to our clients are only high quality and skilled developers.

How can your business benefit from hiring an Elixir developer?

Elixir is an ideal choice for real-time systems, high-traffic web applications and where availability need to be high.

A seasoned Elixir developer can craft systems which are robust, fault-tolerant and scale with your increasing user traffic. In addition, they can assist you in taking advantage of what makes Elixir special. Which is mostly the Phoenix framework ideal for building high-performance web applications quickly and with minimal code. In conclusion, hiring an Elixir developer benefits you with shorter development cycles while maintaining high-quality software that keeps your users happy.

Why should I use Lemon.io for hiring developers?

It can be tough to find the perfect Elixir developer for your project when working with a functional language that falls in its own niche. This is where Lemon.io steps in. Our team has proven expertise in recruiting the best Elixir developers to join you on your project.

Lemon.io saves you a lot of time by finding, reviewing and matching the perfect Elixir developer with your team. We provide a guarantee trial period, where you can put them through actual tasks and experience their efficiency before hiring.
