Tampa Devs Talent is the hiring platform built by Tampa Devs, Tampa Bay's largest nonprofit developer community. We connect local companies directly with developers. No recruiter fees or middleman.

How it works

Tampa Bay employers browse developer profiles, filter by skill and availability, and message candidates directly. Post a job listing and developers apply to you, or reach out to candidates yourself. Whatever fits your hiring process. Developers create a profile once and get discovered by companies hiring locally.

Why we built this

Traditional recruiting is broken for small and mid-size companies. A single placement fee can run $15-25K, which is prohibitive when you're a 20-person startup making your first engineering hire. We built Tampa Devs Talent so local companies can access the same talent pool without the overhead.

Every subscription directly funds Tampa Devs, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit behind Tampa Bay's tech community. 6,000+ members, hundreds of events, and the community infrastructure that keeps the local tech scene growing. When you hire through Tampa Devs Talent, you're investing in the community your next developer came from.

For Developers

Create your profile, set your availability, and let employers come to you. Browse open job listings from local companies, apply directly, and skip the resume black hole.
