Hourly
Weekly invoicing, minimum 40 hours per month, weekly demos. You pay only for the hours we log against your project board. Best for technical spikes, single-feature work, or maintenance on an existing codebase.
Mobile app talent · Flutter · React Native · iOS · Android
Senior Flutter, React Native, iOS or Android engineers from a CMMI Level 5 / ISO 27001-certified pod — placed into your team in 14 calendar days. NDA before any technical conversation. Manu Shukla signs off every engagement personally.
eCorpIT places senior mobile app engineers — Flutter, React Native, iOS or Android — from a CMMI Level 5 / ISO 27001-certified pod into your team in 14 calendar days. Rates run $22/hour (junior) to $62/hour (iOS architect), against $70–$160/hour for US seniors and $55–$130/hour for UK seniors. Four engagement models: Hourly, Monthly, Quarterly, Project (fixed scope from $8K).
Before you hire
The honest version of the decision. If you are not sure, that is what the Day 1 discovery call is for — Manu makes the call with you, in writing, in the one-page strategy doc you receive by end of Day 1.
One team, both stores
You want one team to ship iOS and Android at once, you have no React web team to share code with, and Material 3 fits. The single-codebase economics compound on every release.
Dart 3 · Material 3 · Riverpod / BLoC
Share code with your React web
You already have a React or Next.js web team, you want component reuse with web, and TypeScript-first is the standard. The New Architecture (Fabric + TurboModules) makes 2026 RN much faster than its 2022 reputation.
TypeScript · Expo SDK 50+ · New Architecture
Deep native, premium audience
The product is iOS-only or iOS-first, you need ARKit, Core ML, HealthKit or App Clips, or the audience is overwhelmingly Apple. Senior iOS commands a small premium because supply is tighter.
Swift · SwiftUI · Combine · async/await
Global scale, every device
Your audience skews global (India, Indonesia, Brazil, Nigeria), the device range matters (flagship to entry-level), or you target Wear OS, Android Auto or foldables.
Kotlin · Jetpack Compose · Material You
Why eCorpIT
You can hire mobile app engineers in three ways: a US or UK boutique agency, a freelancer marketplace, or an India-based exporter. Each has trade-offs. Teams choose eCorpIT for two reasons — economics and founder-led delivery.
Manu Shukla personally reviews every mobile project at the architecture and milestone stages. That is not a sales pitch — it is how eCorpIT keeps senior-led delivery from drifting into mid-level execution as we scale.
A 40–60% vs US · ~50% vs UK saving at the same seniority, on a dedicated pod with an MSA and DPA signed before code is written. Industry rate benchmarks.
No bench juniors silently doing the work. The CV you interview is the engineer who ships.
Engineering, design, QA and DevOps under the same roof. One point of accountability for the whole build.
Within 4 hours of your first inbound message. Mutual, India-and-UK-aligned, and we accept yours if you prefer.
Master Services Agreement and Data Processing Addendum, GDPR + DPDP aligned, signed both sides before Sprint 1.
Gurugram overlaps with London until 12:30 PM IST and reaches US East from 6:30 PM IST. Staffed deliberately, not by accident.
No 4-week dark sprints with a big reveal at the end. Friday demo, Friday status note, Friday invoice.
Transparent pricing
All-in: no recruitment fee, no setup fee, no per-NDA charge. Weekly invoicing, net 14. Native iOS sits at a small premium because senior Swift talent is scarcer; everything else is consistent across stacks.
| Tier | Experience | Flutter / React Native | iOS | Android |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Junior | 1–2 years | $22/hr | $24/hr | $22/hr |
| Mid-level | 3–5 years | $32/hr | $35/hr | $32/hr |
| Senior | 6+ years | $44/hr | $48/hr | $44/hr |
| Lead / Architect | 8+ years | $58/hr | $62/hr | $58/hr |
For a typical 6-month MVP at 160 hours/month with one senior engineer, that is $42K–$46K (eCorpIT senior) versus $108K–$115K (US senior midpoint). Same seniority, same shipped app.
How you work with us
You pick the one that fits how you actually want to work. We do not push everyone into the same shape.
Weekly invoicing, minimum 40 hours per month, weekly demos. You pay only for the hours we log against your project board. Best for technical spikes, single-feature work, or maintenance on an existing codebase.
160 hours per month, dedicated. 10% discount on the hourly rate. The engineer attends your standups, sits in your Slack, follows your sprint cadence. Pause with 30 days’ written notice. Best for active builds.
3-month commit, 15% discount on hourly. Includes a shared designer (40 hours) and a shared QA engineer (40 hours) at no additional cost. The pod model — a real team behind one engineer.
$8K (cross-platform), $10K (iOS-only) MVP starting. We own scope, milestones and acceptance criteria. Weekly demos, weekly invoicing against milestones. Best when the spec is well-defined and you want predictability.
All four models include the NDA signed before any technical conversation, an MSA with India and EU/UK-aligned clauses, a DPA aligned with GDPR and India’s DPDP Act, weekly invoicing, and a single named delivery lead for the whole engagement.
