The Challenge
Zonar Systems was undertaking a $100M+ initiative to migrate its legacy Linux infrastructure and PHP codebase to a cloud-based microservices architecture. The transition included moving to Google Cloud Platform and breaking apart a monolithic system into Python-based microservices.
The organization lacked the in-house technical expertise and engineering capacity needed to execute this transformation at scale.
Fuel Talent’s Approach
Fuel Talent partnered closely with Zonar’s technical leadership and hiring managers to understand both the technical requirements and the cultural attributes needed for long-term success.
Within 18 months, Fuel sourced and deployed highly specialized cloud engineers capable of supporting the architecture shift and implementation.
Key Differentiators
-
Deep technical expertise enabling architectural discussions with engineering leadership
-
A strong pipeline of cloud-native engineers ready to deploy quickly
-
Efficient recruiting metrics that reduced time-to-hire and accelerated project delivery
Results
-
66 contract placements
-
93% contractor-to-full-time conversion rate
-
89.5% offer close rate
-
90% fill rate with multiple agencies competing
-
Only 2 early falloffs
-
