Devlyn AI · Elixir · Barcelona

Elixir engineering for Barcelona teams.

Bypass the Barcelona talent shortage. Deploy a senior Elixir pod aligned to your time zone in 24 hours.

The intersection

Building Elixir teams in Barcelona is structurally constrained by local supply. Barcelona FTE pipelines run 2–4 months for senior backend roles. Pod retainers fit Iberian-startup budgets and post-2020 founder migration economics.

AI-augmented Elixir workflows utilize Cursor for scaffolding Ecto schemas, Phoenix contexts, and LiveView components — under senior validation that owns the OTP supervision strategy, process messaging bottlenecks, and deployment architecture. Compression is extremely strong in LiveView CRUD generation and testing.

Elixir engagements typically run as one or two dedicated engineers for $6,000–$12,000/month, focusing on migrating legacy real-time systems to the Erlang VM, or building new Phoenix LiveView applications where the frontend and backend are unified.
