Why hiring is broken in 2026

Every option has a different way of failing you.

Hire FTE: slow. Marketplaces: random. Agencies: expensive. In-house overflow: at capacity. We've talked to hundreds of SaaS teams; the math never pencils out for AI-shaped tasks.

01
Hiring takes 75 days on average
Senior AI engineers in the US: $250K+ TC, 75-day req cycle, ~50% decline at offer. Your roadmap waits two quarters for one hire.
02
Marketplaces are a coin flip
Generic full-stack devs marked "AI". Ghosting, missed timelines, code that won't pass review. You spend hours filtering proposals.
03
Agencies quote $25K minimums
Slide decks for weeks before code. Statements of work for tasks that should take five days. Mismatched billing for AI feature work.
04
Your team is at capacity
AI features keep slipping to next quarter. Specialty work piles up. Roadmap stalls while strategic engineers context-switch.

Hiring FAQ

The questions teams ask before switching from hiring.

Because that's how the work is shopped for. Most teams looking for AI engineering capacity start by Googling "hire AI engineers" — not "AI engineering subscription". The job to be done is the same: ship a production AI feature. Boundev removes the hiring part of the equation. You get the engineering output without the 75-day req cycle, the offer-decline risk, or the management overhead.
