Hire AI specialists matched to your team’s specific skill gaps, including generative AI, AI agents, machine learning, NLP, computer vision, and AI integration.
Solutions We Deliver
Engineering leaders choose Cypherox for architecture-led, production-grade AI engineers who can start within days, work under your direction, and ensure you retain ownership of all models and code.
Our developers design complete systems, determining where RAG, fine-tuning, or improved context are needed, ensuring your solutions are delivered and do not become technical debt.
Every developer is screened for proven production AI delivery before you review their profile, so you interview only those with demonstrated experience.
You can onboard a vetted AI developer within days, compared to the three to six months required for a senior ML hire. Rapid deployment helps keep your projects on track.
Our developers use your tools, follow your priorities, and work under your direction. All deliverables, including code, trained models, and data, remain your property.
Scale engagement as your needs change, with no severance costs or long-term commitments. Maintain capacity only as long as required.
Projects
The cost to hire AI developers depends on seniority, specialization, engagement model, and commitment length. The main cost drivers are outlined below.
Senior engineers who have shipped production AI cost more than mid-level developers, and they usually pay for themselves in delivery speed and fewer rewrites.
In-demand skills such as generative AI, agentic development, and MLOps are priced higher, while standard integration or automation work is more cost-effective.
A full-time dedicated developer, a part-time block, and a full team each have different pricing, and full-time offers the best rate for sustained work.
Longer engagements generally secure better monthly rates than short-term or intermittent work, as continuity reduces ramp-up costs.
Developers who closely match your working hours or meet specific data residency requirements may influence the final rate.
| Engagement | Typical Monthly Rate | Best For |
| Dedicated developer (mid-level) | Approx. $6,500 to $9,500 | ML, integration, automation |
| Dedicated developer (senior or specialist) | Approx. $9,500 to $15,000 | Generative AI, agentic, MLOps |
| Part-time or hourly | Scoped to capacity used | Smaller or intermittent scope |
| Full AI team | Scoped per team composition | Full builds on a fast timeline |
For context, 2026 industry surveys estimate dedicated AI developer rates at $6,000 to $40,000 per month, depending on seniority and specialization. We confirm a firm rate for your requirements during a brief scoping call.
Dedicated Developer
Choose the engagement model that fits your team and timeline, and change it as the work changes, from a single embedded engineer to a full AI team. You can also hire ML developers or Python developers for wider builds.
An engineer who works only on your project, full-time, embedded in your workflow and reporting to you. Best when you have sustained AI work and want continuity.
Engage an AI developer for a defined block of capacity when your project scope is limited or needs are intermittent. You pay only for the capacity utilized.
Hire a pre-assembled team of AI engineers, data engineers, and QA specialists, enabling rapid progress on comprehensive projects.
Add AI specialists to your current team to cover a specific gap, such as generative AI, MLOps, or computer vision, without changing how your team works. Your leads keep ownership.

Hiring a dedicated AI developer typically costs $6,000 to $40,000 per month, depending on seniority and specialism, with generative AI, agentic, and MLOps skills commanding higher rates. For comparison, a US in-house AI engineer costs roughly $80,000 to $200,000 in salary, plus 20 to 30% overhead after accounting for benefits, recruiting, and equipment.
We confirm a firm rate for your exact seniority and engagement model in a short scoping call.
Vetted AI developers can usually start within a few days of you approving a candidate, rather than the three to six months a senior in-house hire takes. The exact start date depends on the seniority and specialisation you need and how quickly you complete interviews.
Hire in-house when AI is core to your product, and you can support full-time salaries and a 3- to 6-month recruiting cycle. Use freelancers for small, one-off tasks, and a dedicated team when you need vetted, production-grade capacity fast with continuity and managed delivery.
A dedicated model gives you the skill and speed of an agency with the focus of an embedded engineer, without the overhead of a full-time hire.
Yes. You can hire generative AI developers for LLM, RAG, and agentic builds or ML developers for model training, deep learning, and MLOps, matched to the exact skill you need. We place specialists, not generalists, so the developer you hire has shipped the kind of AI you are building.
Our AI developers handle generative AI and LLM apps, AI agents, machine learning and deep learning models, NLP, computer vision, AI integration, intelligent automation, and predictive analytics. Whether you are adding an AI feature, building an agent, or deploying a model to production, we match a specialist with proven delivery in that area.
Yes. You can hire a dedicated AI developer full-time, engage one part-time, or bring on a full team, and you can move between these models as the work changes. We match the engagement to your scope rather than forcing a single arrangement.
We screen every developer for real production AI delivery, technical skill, and communication before you see a profile, so you interview only engineers who can do the work. You then run your own interview and confirm the fit before anyone is assigned to your project.
Yes. Our developers work under your direction, and everything they build, including the source code, trained models, and data, belongs to you. Ownership is defined in the contract from the start, so there is no ambiguity and no lock-in.
We set security and compliance rules at the start of the engagement, and our developers work within your access controls, tools, and data policies. For regulated work, we align with standards such as GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2, and we sign NDAs before any data is shared.
Yes. Our AI integration developers connect models to your platforms, CRMs, ERPs, and data systems through clean API design and data pipelines, so the AI works inside your current stack. We review your architecture first, so integration challenges are caught before they become production problems.
Yes. AI models lose accuracy as data changes, a problem called model drift, so our developers can monitor performance, retrain models, and maintain systems after launch. Support terms are set per engagement, from a defined maintenance window to ongoing model governance.
Your hired developers work in your communication tools, join your stand-ups, and report to you directly, so they operate like your own team members. We set up the reporting cadence and timezone overlap with you during onboarding.
If a developer is not the right fit early in the engagement, we replace them at no extra cost, so the hiring risk sits with us, not you. You keep control of the selection, and we keep matching until the fit is right.
