Hire a Developer

Hire a Developer

Use this skill to search for developers matching your requirements. Specify the tech stack, hourly rate range, and availability window — Claude will find matching specialists on Ceki.me, check their calendars, and book the best fit. Payment is handled automatically via crypto.

Use Cases

Find a React developer under $50/hr
Hire for a 2-week sprint
Find a Go backend developer with Kubernetes experience available next Monday
Hire a TypeScript developer for a one-day code review
Find a Python data engineer under $80/hr with PostgreSQL experience
Search for a senior iOS developer for a 3-month contract

How It Works

The hire-developer skill connects Claude Code to Ceki.me's specialist search via MCP. When you run a hire command, Claude calls the search tools on the Ceki.me MCP server — 19 tools in total — passing your parameters: programming language, framework, hourly rate ceiling, availability window. The server queries live specialist profiles and returns structured results.

1
Search by stack

Specify language, frameworks, or tools. Claude translates your natural language into precise filter parameters. "Find a senior Node.js developer who knows Redis and Docker" becomes a structured query against the marketplace index.

2
Filter by rate

Set a maximum hourly rate. Results are sorted by relevance and rate. You see names, rates, experience level, and rating in a single response.

3
Check availability

Claude queries real-time calendar data for each result. Specialists who have no open slots this week are filtered out automatically if you specify a timeframe.

4
Book

Once you identify a match, Claude initiates the booking through MCP. You confirm the slot, the duration, and the task description.

5
Auto-pay via crypto escrow

Payment is held in escrow at booking time. Supported currencies: USDT, BTC, ETH, USDC. Ceki.me takes 0% commission — the full rate goes to the specialist on completion.

Why Use This Skill

Manual hiring through a web interface has friction at every step: loading profiles, reading through listings, navigating calendars, waiting for specialists to respond. For developers who work primarily in the terminal, that context switch costs time and focus. The hire-developer skill eliminates that friction. You describe what you need in plain language; Claude handles the search and filtering. The 19 MCP tools on the Ceki.me server give Claude enough resolution to handle complex queries: rate ranges, combined stack requirements, availability windows, experience filters. Zero commission means the posted rate is the actual cost. You pay $60/hr, the specialist receives $60/hr. No platform cut, no service fee on top. For teams that hire regularly — for sprint work, code reviews, architecture sessions, or specialized tasks — the skill turns hiring from a process into a command.

Example Usage

Just type this command in Claude Code

Claude Code
/hire-developer "React, $40-60/hr, available next week"
