Dotmatics is a US scientific software product company that connects science, data, and decision making. The company provides biologists and chemists with digital products used by scientists to streamline every step of the research, such as patient treatment solutions and clinical trial platforms, etc. Over 2 million researchers are already using Dotmatics multi-modal biologics R&D platform. Next top to reach โ€” expanding into clinical and forensic genetic analysis, so Dotmatics recently acquired SoftGenetics and keeps scaling.

Issue

Prior to collaborating with Alcor, Dotmatics had already set up offices in USA, Ireland, and New Zealand. The company saw no limit to further business expansion, but in their view, traditional IT outsourcing was done and dusted. Their unique biological product required meticulous development supervision.

Dotmatics chose Eastern Europe and aimed for speed and quality. Alcor raised to the occasion. Thatโ€™s a match!

Solution

We consulted the client on recruitment in Eastern Europe and fine-tuned their vacancies to fit the local tech markets. As soon as we were done with Dotmaticsโ€™ employer value proposition and agreed upon the ideal candidate profile, Alcor launched IT executive search.

Dotmatics received a group of researchers, 4 headhunters, and a key account manager to cover full-cycle tech recruitment and manage arising queries. We scoured our HR sources, social media, and a 253K internal candidate network. After unearthing tech gems, we forwarded the first CVs of verified candidates in just 5 days, 80% of which were approved.

Throughout the hiring process, we kept in touch with Dotmatics by sending weekly reports on the CVs processed and interviews conducted. Plus, we dealt with counteroffers and persuaded the candidates to proceed with Dotmatics. Most of them now form the companyโ€™s core Eastern European IT team.

Results

30 software engineers in a year
Where thereโ€™s Alcor, thereโ€™s a goal achieved. We hired an entire development team in Eastern Europe โ€” Director of Engineering, Full Stack, React, QA Automation, DevOps, Node.js, and other engineers.
Filling 15% of roles with the 1st candidate
Most of our CVs made the cut for the job offer, including Product Manager and QA Engineer. At times, Dotmatics was at pains to select the best! Not to mention that we anticipated some job descriptions, and thatโ€™s how we filled a C++ vacancy in days.
Top 10% of tech talent hired
Dotmatics was astonished with coding proficiency of Alcorโ€™s candidates: deep tech expertise, exceptional soft skills, and cultural fits combined. Rather than just meeting expectations, we surpassed them by presenting a Back-End Developer who eventually joined the team as a Full Stack Java Engineer.
Hassle-free collaboration
Alcor offers neither bureaucracy nor delays; just cooperation without any intermediaries and an average time to hire of 2-6 weeks. In case of any requests, Dotmatics has a key account manager who's available 24/7.
Backed up office & legal
Dotmatics received our full Employer of Record package, which includes payroll & accounting, legal compliance services, onboarding/offboarding, remuneration remittance, and benefits management. Additionally, we handled laptop procurement for developers.
Complete control over product development
We hit the sweet spot with our approach of doing business abroad. Just as Dotmatics wanted, they got a team of software engineers with no intermediaries. Full control over the team, IP rights secured, and Alcor there for the client to continue growing!
