In the crypto world, timing is everything. A rapidly growing digital asset platform needed to scale its technical operations fast—but after months of internal recruiting, key roles remained unfilled. From blockchain engineers to cybersecurity specialists, the talent needed was niche, experienced, and urgently required. By activating a specialized hiring process and tapping into a pre-vetted talent network, the organization built an expert team in under 30 days, accelerating their roadmap and clearing a path for the next stage of growth.
The Challenge
A rapidly scaling crypto organization needed to assemble a specialized operations team to support its next phase of growth. The roles were highly technical and domain-specific, including senior software developers, cybersecurity experts, site reliability engineers, and product owners with proven experience in financial trading environments.
Despite three months of internal recruiting efforts, the organization struggled to find qualified candidates fast enough to meet their timeline.
The Process
Oceans activated its nearshore talent acquisition team and tapped into its pre-vetted professional network across Latin America. The team quickly scoped the technical requirements and executed a fast-track process that included:
- Proactive sourcing and outreach across targeted candidate pools.
- In-depth screening and subject-matter-expert-led technical assessments to validate capability.
- Rapid coordination with the client’s internal stakeholders to align on hiring priorities and finalize offers.
Oceans handled the end-to-end delivery, from discovery to onboarding, allowing the client to focus on product execution rather than recruitment bottlenecks.
The Team
The assembled team included specialists in backend development, blockchain infrastructure, cybersecurity, and cloud operations, all with a track record in high-stakes trading platforms. The hiring effort prioritized not only skillset fit but also market maturity and adaptability to the client’s product vision and pace.
The Solution
In less than 30 days, Oceans successfully built the full operations team the client had been seeking for over three months, a transformation that unlocked their next phase of product development and market growth.
This engagement is a clear example of how Oceans delivers speed, precision, and specialization in building mission-critical engineering teams especially in fast-paced, high-trust industries like crypto and fintech.
