DevOps

The ever-competitive DevOps talent market is entering a new era – is your business prepared? Persistent skill gaps and widespread digital transformation are proving difficult to navigate for today’s hiring managers, especially when it comes to hiring DevOps engineers.

DevOps is the workflow management philosophy that changed tech jobs forever back in 2007. Seventeen (or so) years later, the once-radical way of working is still evolving.

It’s evolving quickly too, making it tough to pinpoint the kind of talent that will suit your company’s unique needs. Thankfully, the specialist DevOps recruiters at Trust in SODA have a wealth of experience in connecting top DevOps talent with the opportunities they need to shine. 

This means helping leaders design their workplace for difference. DevOps is an inherently intersectional way of working that thrives on diversity – it’s what inspired us to launch our Women in DevOps community back in 2017!

When you partner with Trust in SODA, you gain access to our global community network, enabling you to broaden the talent pool like never before. If you’re looking for consistency, speed, quality, diversity, and sustainability in your hiring partner, our DevOps specialists have you covered.

ComAve are building the first-ever super app designed exclusively for sports fans, turning passion into rewards. ComAve is redefining what it means to be a fan, blending technology, gamification, and loyalty rewards to create a one-of-a-kind ecosystem where fans always win

After landing £100m in funding, they were experiencing serious growth and had no talent or HR function. Trust in SODA started with recruiting the HR team and then became the talent function. Setting the strategy for all five of the Comave businesses, we provided a linked ecosystem for talent attraction and management. 

We successfully recruited across Sales, Technology, Engineering, Operations and Marketing, from Junior to C Suite including the COO, across Europe, covering Eastern Europe, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and France, as well as the UK. Following the successful completion of multiiple placements, we are delighted to now be supporting Comave in North America and South America. 

One of the most important requirement to Comave is speed of delivery, and the SODA team have delivered every time. In addition we have supported with an EOR Solution, and implemented a Workable ATS for the team there.
