Next.js Developer engagements, answered honestly.
How senior are your Next.js Developers really?
Every engineer ≥ 5 years shipping production code (median: 7), led at least one project end-to-end, passed our paid trial project graded by two senior Maple54 engineers. We reject 99.83% of applicants. You'll see their GitHub + commercial references + 30-minute intro call before committing.
What's the real cost vs. a US hire?
Typically 40-75% savings vs. US full-time equivalent. Skills: comparable to mid-to-senior US engineers at major tech companies. We're not offshore-cheap — we're globally-competitive with US-level quality.
What if the engineer doesn't work out?
2-week mutual trial, no questions asked. If fit isn't right, we replace within 72 hours from bench. Hiring friction is our problem, not yours. Post-trial, same 72-hour replacement policy applies for the lifetime of engagement.
Timezone overlap?
You specify your overlap requirements upfront (typically 3-6 hours of live overlap with your core hours). We match engineers who can commit. EU + US clients most commonly work with South Asian, EU, or LatAm engineers who shift hours.
Who owns the IP?
You do, unconditionally. Every engineer signs bespoke IP assignment on day 1. Work product — code, designs, documentation — transfers entirely to your company. Maple54 retains zero rights.
What tools does Next.js Developer use?
Next.js App Router + React Server Components, Vercel / AWS deploy, Edge Functions, Middleware, streaming + Suspense, tRPC. Hiring Next.js experts means shipping production Next.js — not just “React developers who know Next.”
