Case Study: BioTrack builds a backend engineering hub in Romania with DevsData

BioTrack hires 3 Senior Backend Developers in under 3 weeks with DevsData

BioTrack, a US-based SaaS provider for the regulated cannabis industry, faced the challenge of building its first backend engineering hub in Romania. Operating in a sensitive and stigmatized sector, they needed to hire three Senior Backend Developers, with one acting as an informal site lead, who were comfortable with the domain and could handle complex technical refactoring. They partnered with the IT recruitment firm DevsData LLC to overcome these unique hiring obstacles.

DevsData LLC implemented a stigma-aware sourcing and recruitment strategy that included region-specific talent mapping in Eastern Europe and dual-layer technical screening. This approach resulted in the successful hiring of three senior developers in under three weeks, achieving a 100% offer acceptance rate and sourcing over 90% of candidates from passive talent pools. For BioTrack, this established a scalable European talent base, accelerated their product modernization roadmap, and laid the groundwork for future regional expansion.
