What good offshore AI engineer vetting actually looks like

Hey PH, Sunil here.

Quick context: AI Velocity Pods is not a recruiting platform. It is how we structure AI engineering engagements, pre-vetted offshore engineers paired with senior architects, fixed price, 2-week ramp.

The most useful thing I can share: the quality difference between good and bad offshore AI engineering comes entirely from how vetting is done. Ask whether the engineer has shipped the specific thing you need in production and can describe what broke. That separates real engineers from interview performers.

Pre-vetted AI engineers. Productive in 2 weeks. 70% less.

US ML engineer hiring is difficult for most startups, $250K $350K packages, 4 6 month timelines.

You can ship an MVP in 4 weeks. Most teams just aren't structured for it.

Hey PH , Sunil here.

Something I've seen repeatedly: founders spending 3 6 months on an MVP that could've shipped in 4 weeks.

The issue usually isn't the engineering. It's the structure around it, when QA happens, how scope is controlled, how fast decisions get made.
