SOUND FAMILIAR?

React Is Easy. Production-Ready Next.js Is Not.

These are the problems teams face when they hire developers without proven Next.js expertise.

Your app is slow and SEO-unfriendly.

You're stuck between Pages Router and App Router.

Your frontend developer lacks full-stack Next.js skills.

Your Next.js project is becoming unmaintainable.

You can't find Next.js developers who understand your stack.

Hiring takes too long and candidates are unvetted.

Before You Ask

Questions we hear a lot.

How quickly can I hire a Next.js developer? +

We match from a pre-vetted talent pool, so you typically review candidates within 2-5 days. Start dates depend on your interview process and their availability.

Can I hire Next.js developers on a contract basis? +

Yes. We offer contract, contract-to-hire, and project-based engagements. Many teams start with a contract for a specific migration or feature, then extend.

React developer vs Next.js developer: what’s the difference? +

React developers build client-side single-page apps. Next.js developers specialize in server-side rendering, static generation, API routes, and file-system routing for production-ready, SEO-friendly apps.

Should I hire for Pages Router or App Router? +

For new projects, hire an App Router expert, it is the future of Next.js. For legacy projects, you may need Pages Router experience with migration skills. We match based on your codebase.

Do I need a frontend or full-stack Next.js developer? +

Frontend devs handle UI, Server Components, and performance. Full-stack devs also build API routes, integrate databases, handle auth, and manage deployment. We place either based on your needs.

What skills should I look for when hiring a Next.js developer? +

Look for strong React and TypeScript skills, hands-on App Router experience, knowledge of Server Components and rendering strategies, API and database integration, testing expertise, and a track record of optimizing performance and SEO.

Can your Next.js developers migrate an existing application? +

Yes. We can match you with developers experienced in migrating from Pages Router to App Router, upgrading older Next.js versions, or moving React applications and other web platforms to Next.js.

Can I hire a Next.js developer for an existing team? +

Yes. Our developers can join your existing product and engineering workflows, collaborate with designers and backend teams, and work within your preferred tools, processes, and time-zone requirements.

How do you assess Next.js developers? +

We evaluate practical Next.js knowledge, code quality, architecture, TypeScript proficiency, full-stack capabilities, performance optimization, testing practices, communication skills, and relevant project experience.

Can your developers support Next.js applications after launch? +

Yes. Depending on the engagement, developers can provide ongoing maintenance, performance monitoring, bug fixes, feature development, dependency upgrades, and architecture improvements after launch.
