Hire or retain specialists abroad without opening a local entity. MWDN or an approved local partner manages employment, payroll, and HR administration, while your company directs the work.
Employer of Record (EOR) lets you hire abroad without opening a local entity. MWDN handles employment and payroll; you manage the specialist’s work.
Your company wants to make the hire but cannot issue an employment contract in that country.
Setting up a local company would delay the hire when you need that person now.
Hire locally or build a small team before committing to your own entity.

I approached MWDN for a POC that was delivered ahead of time with very competitive pricing. Following that experience, I have been working with various teams at MWDN for more than two years. Developers and managers have. great technical and interpersonal qualities.
Co-Founder & CTO, Better Chains
It was the really good journey with MWDN Ltd, the best IT company in Kharkov and maybe even in Ukraine. My major conclusion is that the individuals are making this company so unique and attractive. Thank you!
CTO, SizeWhiz
I had the greatest pleasure of working with MWDN. All teams are very pragmatic, get-it-done oriented engineers that deliver great quality of work with a strong “right first time” attitude. I worked with a very high-level team, which had technical and interpersonal qualities.
CTO, SpeakingPal
I reached MWDN as I knew the company had a pool of skilled developers with vast expertise in medical software. Thanks to their assistance, I managed to reinforce my in-house team and fill in existing skill gaps. When working with MWDN, you can immediately see that diligence, transparency, honesty, and quality are their top values.
COO, NICAS CS
MWDN’s commitment to the team for our success is impressive. The team was working on data analysis for synthetic data, delivered work on time and responded well to our needs.
VP R&D, Fairgen
Clear and transparent communication is a hallmark of our engagement with MWDN. From project updates to issue resolution, the open lines of communication fostered a sense of trust and collaboration.
MWDN consistently met project deadlines, resulting in the timely delivery of goods and services. This punctuality greatly contributed to the overall success of our project.
CTO, Hi-G-Tek
MWDN’s engineers have joined our teams as an inherent part of our engineering group. They serve in multiple roles in engineering contributing to the core of our technology.
The fact that MWDN has the very high level of candidates for each role that we opened, the longevity and commitment of each of MWDN’s team members and of course the quality of deliverables by their engineers are very impressive.
EVP, Engineering & General Manager, Capitolis
MWDN has provided us with rapid talent acquisition, full development teams, and single specialists. The team has developed software products for supply chain management. The team has delivered at a constant speed and with low maintenance.
VP of Product Development & QA, Valantic
I like MWDN’s work ethic. They try hard to get things done on time and to get to the bottom of every feature set early in the process rather than later in development, which I think is key.
We are happy with the work that they do, including the quality of their product, and the code delivered. They are usually able to deliver projects on time, which is something that rarely happens in this industry if you are familiar with it. On every project that we have done with them, clients have always come back and wanted more things, making this a testament to MWDN’s success.
Co-Founder, Goji Labs
The team at MWDN was excellent in terms of project management, communication, and delivery at the end of it. They successfully helped us hire a strong remote R&D team.

They found us good developers very quickly. It’s a real challenge to get good developers in less than a month, but they did it.
MWDN very quickly brought us two amazing developers, who worked so well that we hired another. We now have a backend developer, a frontend developer, and a developer that does both. One of our employees is the head of development.
COO, Swiftic.io
MWDN has met our QA roadmap milestones. For example, in one month, the candidate we hired through MWDN developed their first batch of tests. MWDN’s personal treatment and professionalism are impressive.
VP R&D, Nostromo
The team has always been super responsive and able to match our crazy pace.
MWDN demonstrated strong project management practices. They consistently delivered SQL outputs on or ahead of schedule. For larger or more complex requests, they communicated progress proactively and set realistic expectations.
Urgent customer-facing requests were prioritized without compromising the quality of other deliverables. Their team often clarified requirements early in the process to ensure accuracy and alignment. This reduced the number of revisions required.

Answers to common questions about choosing a cooperation model, managing remote specialists, scaling a team, and working with MWDN.
An Employer of Record legally employs a specialist on behalf of your company in the relevant country. The EOR setup covers the employment contract, payroll, required deductions, and local administration, while your company manages the person’s daily work.
No. EOR allows you to employ a specialist in another country without opening your own entity there. Availability and the exact setup depend on the country, local requirements, and the employment arrangement needed.
Your company manages goals, tasks, workload, communication, and performance. MWDN or an approved local partner handles the legal employment and administrative responsibilities included in the EOR agreement.
Yes. You can bring an existing candidate or retain a current team member who needs employment in another country. Candidate search can also be added when you have chosen the market but not the specialist.
The cost normally includes the employee’s salary, required employer costs, payroll administration, and the EOR service fee. The exact structure depends on the country, compensation package, local obligations, and agreed support.
The timeline depends on the country, document readiness, contract terms, and any local checks required. MWDN confirms the expected schedule after reviewing the candidate, location, salary, and planned start date.
Tell us the candidate’s location and hiring plans, and we’ll recommend the right setup.
