Hire Offshore Developers from the Philippines
Teams across
Companies we've built teams for
Not outsourcing a project.
Building your team.
Staff augmentation means you hire the developer — they work with your team, use your tools, follow your processes, and build your product. We just remove the recruitment headache.
Hire by the role
Tell us exactly who you need — frontend, backend, mobile, DevOps — and we'll find the match. One developer or an entire squad.
They work as your team
Your developer joins your Slack, attends your standups, uses your GitHub. Embedded as any local hire — just based in Manila or Cebu.
No long-term lock-in
Month-to-month agreements. Scale your team up when projects demand it. No penalty for scaling down. You stay in control.

Asia's best-kept secret
for software talent
The Philippines produces over 100,000 STEM graduates per year. Filipino developers are technically strong, fluent in English, and culturally aligned with Western businesses.
Save up to 60% on development costs
World-class developers at a fraction of AU, US, or UK rates. From $27/hr (junior) to $48/hr (senior) — versus $80–$120/hr for equivalent local talent.
Native English speakers
English is an official language of the Philippines. Zero communication barriers — written and spoken.
Time zones that work
PST (UTC+8) overlaps with AEST in the morning. Enough for daily standups and real-time collaboration.
Strong engineering culture
100,000+ tech graduates annually. A culture that values loyalty, dedication, and long-term commitment.
We're not a recruiter.
We're your offshore team partner.
Most agencies send you CVs and disappear. We stay with you — managing performance, culture fit, and team growth as your offshore needs evolve.
Pre-vetted developers only
Every developer passes technical assessments, background checks, and English proficiency tests. Less than 20% of applicants make it through.
Direct access — no middlemen
You communicate directly with your developer. They join your Slack, standups, and GitHub. We handle HR and payroll in the background.
30-day replacement guarantee
If your developer isn't the right fit within the first 30 days, we replace them at no cost. No questions asked.
Month-to-month agreements
No lock-in contracts. Scale up or down with 30 days' notice. We earn your business by delivering value.
AWS Select Partner
Lanex is an AWS Select Tier Partner with 5 AWS-certified engineers on staff. We can architect, deploy, and manage production infrastructure on AWS — not just build the code.

Read case study →How an Australian Fintech Scaled Their Dev Team in 3 Weeks
A Sydney-based fintech was racing to hit a product deadline. They needed two senior engineers in weeks, not months. Here's how we did it.
We started Lanex because offshore hiring was broken.
Companies were getting burned by cheap freelancers, unaccountable agencies, and communication nightmares. We knew the talent in the Philippines was world-class — it just needed a proper bridge to Western teams.
Lanex was built to be that bridge. Not a marketplace. Not a vendor. A team extension partner that takes the relationship as seriously as you do.
Real people. Real expertise.
Not a database. Not a marketplace. A team who cares about who we place and how they perform.
"We've seen too many companies get burned by bad offshore experiences. We built Lanex to fix that — putting quality and communication first, every time."
