Why Tech Experts Get Their Contracting Jobs Via 10x Management

For the better part of a decade, a booming market of freelance tech jobs has kept millions of contractors busy. Even before the pandemic changed the work landscape as we know it, tens of thousands of remote tech jobs were made available to a rising tide of expert contractors who could make a generous living from their expertise and know-how.

If you’ve participated in the gig economy, you’ve probably had your fair share of experiences with freelance tech jobs. Most contractors quickly realize that not all gigs are created equal. From finding the right work, to the type of client you work with, to the amount of negotiation required, to the wide range of expectations – contracting can be a grind, and all that happens before you even start on the work itself. That goes for any number of freelance tech gigs:

What thousands of tech freelancers have learned is that their time is most valuable and best spent doing the things that make them great – like coding and developing. Leaning into this fact, a growing number have entirely offloaded the “grind” side of freelance life. That is, they let professionals handle all the business relating to their freelancing, thus freeing them up to focus on solving the technical problems at hand. That’s where 10x Management comes in.

About 10x Management

The creation of 10x Management revolved around improving the lives and careers of the world’s best tech freelancers. Look no further than the 2014 New York Times profile on 10x, titled, Representing Programmers as if They Were Celebrities. For 10 years now, 10x has done just that – represented developers, coders, programmers, and more as the true rock stars that they are.

Why become a 10xer? Our tech geniuses would point to the fact that we take all the business elements off their plates. We help our talent find better engagements and at better rates, so they can focus on what they do best: solve thorny tech-related challenges for a wide variety of top companies.

10x’s talent is in such high demand that as of 2022, for the first time, we’re actively seeking a new cohort of the best and brightest to apply to be represented by us. If you are looking to become a 10xer, and have an impressive resume as a technologist, we invite you to apply to be represented by 10x here. While our vetting standards are some of the highest in the industry, we review applicants on a rolling basis and are consistently adding tech geniuses to our roster.

Becoming a 10xer

Many of our 10xers would tell you that they didn’t realize how much better their contracting lives could be until they found 10x. And as a closing note, don’t just take it from us. In early 2022, we received a thank you note from one of our 10xers, who kindly said the following:

“I thank you sincerely for helping make my transition to contracting life painless. It’s been one of the best gifts I’ve received this year.”

It’s remarks like this that confirm for us that our mission is working, and we couldn’t be more grateful to hear of the positive impact we’re making.

If freelancing with 10x sounds like it might be a great fit, we again encourage you to apply to be represented by 10x here.

Our average customer does 5.8 engagements with us.

Hiring technical talent doesn't have to be painful.

If you're tired of posting jobs and sifting through countless resumes, let 10x streamline the process by connecting you with a technologist perfectly suited to your needs.
