Exceptional talent hides in plain sight around the world. Despite a growing global population of 62M software engineering professionals, the overwhelming majority of companies only engage a small pool of talent privileged to be located in crowded Western hubs.

Our mission at Carbon is to uncover these hidden gems, connecting the Western technology world to untapped nearshore and offshore talent markets they would least think to look in.

Carbon's elastic talent solutions, trusted by technology leaders and tier 1 VCs, have supported category defining startups and enterprises worldwide.
