Typed, tested, analysed
PHPStan, typed properties and CI discipline as the default working mode.
PHP
Hire PHP developers
PHP 8 with static analysis, typed code and tests: the language grew up, and so did this bench.
WHY CONECTIA
Modern PHP is a different language
The gap between 2015 PHP and PHP 8 discipline is enormous. We vet for the second and staff accordingly.
Framework depth
Laravel and Symfony in production — plus the judgment to know when a framework is the wrong answer.
Modernization track record
Monoliths migrated stepwise with the strangler pattern — not rewrite roulette.

PROCESS · 72 HOURS
From discovery call to working engineer
No self-serve marketplace, no CV roulette: a CTO scopes the role with you and matches from a bench that already passed the hard filter.
Discovery with a CTO
Thirty minutes on your stack, constraints and definition of done — with an engineer, not a salesperson.
Bench match
We match against vetted seniors only. If the fit is not there, we say so instead of stretching a profile.
Match in 72 hours
The person for your context, with real code and architecture assessments attached — interviews optional, not mandatory.
14-day Pilot Sprint
Judge working output on your repo before any long-term commitment. Zero-risk by design.

DEPLOYMENT · THE FULL ARC
Staffing ends at the match. Deployment ends at the handover.
Marketplaces optimize the moment you accept a profile; everything after is yours to run. Every Conectia engineer ships with the full arc around them — not as a premium tier, but as the only way we place anyone.
Find
CTO-designed vetting passes 3% of candidates — and we present the person for your context, not a stack of CVs to interview through.
72h matchDeploy
Onboarding prepared before day one: access, context, the first week planned. A delivery manager runs the engagement end to end when the project calls for it.
Day-one planSustain
Check-ins every week — daily when the phase demands it — with you and with the engineer. Wrong fit? A substitute within 7 days, inside the 30-day guarantee, at no added cost.
7-day replacementHand over
The ending is a deliverable: full documentation, working accounts handed over, and a safe delete of corporate content — every credential accounted for.

FAQ
What CTOs and founders ask us
Do you staff PHP developers for legacy systems?
Yes — inherited codebases are a core use case: audit first, then a stepwise modernization plan that ships value while it cleans.
Laravel or Symfony?
Both are on the bench. The recommendation follows your codebase and team, argued in trade-offs.
Can PHP engineers integrate AI features?
Yes — AI proficiency is a vetting pillar; LLM-backed features with proper evals are within scope, with LLM specialists available for the infrastructure side.
How fast can a PHP developer start?
A vetted match in 72 hours; 14-day Pilot Sprint on your repo to de-risk the fit.
Is your fee separate from the engineer's salary?
No. You pay one flat monthly rate per engineer that already covers salary, Conectia's management, compliance, payroll and EOR — zero recruiting fees and no separate management-fee line. In practice it lands 26–71% below an equivalent local hire in the US or EU.
How is this different from hiring on a marketplace?
A marketplace rents you a profile and leaves the vetting and the delivery risk with you. Conectia directly employs its engineers across 14 countries, screens them with active CTOs (3% acceptance), embeds them in under 72 hours, and backs every placement with a 30-day replacement guarantee.
