Why Haystack
The fastest way to hire TypeScript developers - without the agency tax.
TypeScript is the de-facto language of modern web teams. The differentiator now is engineers who can model their domain in the type system - making whole classes of bugs impossible - rather than those who reach for `any` when the compiler pushes back.
Haystack's TypeScript candidates ship across front-end, back-end and infrastructure-as-code work.
What they ship
Production TypeScript work, not tutorials.
- End-to-end type-safe APIs with tRPC, GraphQL Code Generator or OpenAPI
- Monorepos with Turborepo / Nx and shared type packages
- Library code with conditional types and template literal types
- Migrations from JavaScript codebases to strict TypeScript without freezing feature work
