The opportunity

The AI talent you need is scarce at home — and abundant offshore.

Employers in the US and Australia face an acute AI skills shortage: senior roles stay open for months and salaries keep climbing. Meanwhile India and the Philippines hold two of the world's deepest pools of AI, ML and data talent. Talveda connects the two — with the vetting and structure that make it work.

Why teams choose us

Four reasons Talveda is different

🎯

AI specialists only

We place AI, ML, data and MLOps talent — nothing else. Specialist recruiters, specialist vetting, specialist people.

🛡️

Rigorously vetted

A multi-stage technical screen means you meet pre-qualified senior talent, not a résumé pile.

🕑

Cost + time-zone fit

50–75% lower cost than an onshore hire, with real business-hours overlap for AU and the US.

🤝

Managed like your own

You direct the work day-to-day. We carry employment, payroll, compliance and continuity.

Where we fit

The specialist gap the big platforms leave open

Marketplaces sell flexible projects. Nearshore firms are built for the US clock and can't cover Australia. Generalist staffers lack AI depth. Talveda is the AI-only specialist that serves both the US and Australia from one India/Philippines talent base — as committed, client-managed FTEs.

FAQ

Questions teams ask us

What exactly does Talveda do?
We source, vet and place senior AI engineers and architects from India and the Philippines as dedicated, full-time members of your team. You manage their day-to-day work like any in-house hire; we handle sourcing, vetting, contracts, payroll, compliance and continuity.
How is this different from a freelance marketplace or agency?
Marketplaces sell flexible, short-term contractors and leave vetting and management to you. Agencies keep control of the work. Talveda gives you a committed, rigorously-vetted specialist embedded full-time on a minimum 12-month term — with you directing the work and us carrying the employment and compliance.
Where is the talent based, and how do time zones work?
Our specialists are based in India and the Philippines. Those hours give Australian clients strong same-day overlap and US clients meaningful daily overlap — so your AI engineer works alongside your team, not around it.
Do we manage the engineer, or does Talveda?
You do. You set priorities, run stand-ups and review work exactly as you would for an employee. Talveda provides a light oversight layer — onboarding, a named success manager, performance check-ins and a replacement guarantee.
What does it cost?
You pay a simple recurring monthly fee per specialist — typically a large saving versus an equivalent onshore hire. Share the role you need and we'll provide specific pricing for your market.
