Technical Talent placed by Pacific Cloud Cyber

What this is

The people who keep your systems running and secure

Pacific Cloud Cyber places the technical people who keep your systems running, secure, and moving forward, drawing on a worldwide talent pool instead of whoever happens to be looking locally this month.

The market for IT and security talent is tight everywhere, and it is tightest for the roles that keep a business running day to day. The right local candidate may not be in your market at all. We source internationally, so the search starts with thousands of qualified people instead of dozens — and because an international contractor costs a fraction of a comparable US hire, the budget that stretched to one mid-level engineer often reaches the senior one you actually wanted.

Every candidate is screened against the stack you actually run, not a keyword list. Technical assessment, English proficiency, verified references, and a check of the workspace and connectivity they will be working from, all before you spend an hour on an interview.

Screening

How these candidates are vetted

The same five gates apply to every practice. Nobody reaches your calendar without clearing all of them.

  • Identity & work history

    Government ID verification and a confirmed employment history, checked against what the resume claims.

  • Language proficiency

    Spoken and written English assessed against the level the role actually needs, whether that is a client-facing support queue or an internal engineering standup.

  • Role-specific skills testing

    A practical assessment built for the role: a ticket triage scenario, a security alert to work, a code exercise, a reconciliation, or a live inbox.

  • Reference checks

    Direct conversations with prior supervisors, not a form letter and a date range.

  • Workspace & security posture

    Verified connectivity and power redundancy, a private working area, and a device and access posture that satisfies your security requirements.

Engagement

How to bring this person on

Our core model

Staff augmentation

Our core model. The contractor works your account and only your account, reports to your managers, and sits in your reporting line like any other member of the team. The contract sits with Pacific Cloud Cyber: you pay us one invoice, we pay the contractor, and we carry the contracting and compliance obligations in their country.

Commit to the first 90 days of fees and nothing longer. We scope the seat to stay filled for a year or more, but that is how we build it, not what you sign.

Dedicated team

The same arrangement across a whole function rather than one seat: a multi-person pod hired to a single spec, working as a unit under one point of contact and one invoice.

Best for standing up an entire function, like a service desk or an AP team.

Tier 3 & management only

Contract to hire

Tier 3 technical and management seats only. Start with the contractor engaged through us on staff augmentation, then bring them onto your own payroll once they have proven the fit.

Available for Tier 3 and management roles, and useful when the role is new or the bar is hard to describe on paper.

Tier 3 & management only

Direct placement

For senior seats only — Tier 3 technical roles and management — we will run the search and let you bring the person onto your own payroll directly. Priced per search rather than as a monthly rate, and quoted per role.

Available for Tier 3 and management roles. We do not offer it for Tier 1, junior, or administrative seats.

Also hiring on the other side of the house?

Executive assistants, AP/AR and month-end close support, service delivery operations, HR administration, and marketing production people who absorb the operational load your team should not be carrying.
