Hire Pre-Vetted Solana Developers Who Know Rust + Anchor
WeiBlocks delivers senior Solana engineers — native Rust + Anchor specialists, not Solidity retrofits. Staff augmentation, project delivery, or hybrid. Available in 2 weeks.
Quick Answer
WeiBlocks provides pre-vetted Solana developers with deep expertise in Rust, the Anchor framework, SPL tokens, and the Solana ecosystem (Metaplex, Helius, Jupiter, Raydium). Engineers join your team via staff augmentation (3+ month engagements), project delivery, or hybrid. We don't outsource to junior offshore staff — every engineer has shipped production Solana code. Available to start within 2 weeks. Pricing transparent before contract.
Pricing: Starting at $90/hr · $14K/mo FTE
What Solana Developers Do at WeiBlocks
Rust + Anchor Framework
Native Solana program development in Rust with Anchor — not Solidity programmers learning Rust on your dime.
SPL Tokens & Token Extensions
Fungible tokens, NFTs (incl. compressed NFTs via Metaplex), Token-2022 extensions, transfer hooks, freeze authorities.
Solana DeFi Integrations
Working integrations with Jupiter, Raydium, Orca, Marinade, Jito, Lifinity, and the broader Solana DeFi stack.
Solana Infrastructure
Validators, RPC nodes, indexers (Helius, Triton), geyser plugins, data streaming, and high-throughput backend services.
Compute Unit Optimization
Anchor programs optimized for Solana's compute budget — your transactions don't hit CU limits in production.
Cross-Chain Bridging
Wormhole, deBridge, LayerZero, Allbridge — when your Solana program needs to talk to EVM.
Engagement Models
Staff Augmentation
1–3 senior Solana engineers join your team for 3–12+ months. Your sprints, your tools, your stand-ups. Minimum 3-month engagement.
Project Delivery
WeiBlocks scopes, designs, builds, and ships a defined Solana project. Fixed-scope, milestone-based pricing.
Hybrid
WeiBlocks scopes and architects, then embeds engineers into your team for execution. Best for complex projects with internal team buildout.
Tech Stack
The tools and libraries our Solana developers use day-to-day in production engagements.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can a Solana developer start?
Typical engagement starts within 2 weeks of signed contract — that covers vetting your specific tech stack fit, NDA, and onboarding. Faster starts (~1 week) possible for known clients or simpler scope.
What's the minimum engagement length?
Staff augmentation: 3 months minimum. Project delivery: no minimum (scoped per project). Hybrid: typically 3+ months.
Where are your Solana developers based?
Our engineering team is distributed across the US, UAE, and remote-friendly geographies. We assign engineers with timezone overlap to your team's working hours. The agency itself is headquartered in Austin, TX.
What does it cost to hire a Solana developer?
Senior Solana engineers via staff augmentation: typically $90–$160/hr or $14K–$25K/month full-time-equivalent. Project delivery is milestone-based and scoped per engagement. Exact pricing confirmed before contract — no hidden markups.
Can WeiBlocks Solana developers also handle the frontend?
Yes — our Solana engineers are typically full-stack (Rust + TypeScript/React/Next.js). They can ship the Anchor program AND the user-facing DApp without you needing a separate frontend hire.
What if the engineer isn't a good fit?
Within the first 2 weeks we replace at no additional cost. After that, standard professional services replacement policy applies — typically 1–2 week notice and a backup from our bench.
