Technical specialists
Technical specialists for companies in Ukraine
WORKIN sources line setters, CNC machine operators, mechanics and welders. Grade and licences are verified before a profile ever reaches you.
Here it is not the number of hands that decides, but proven qualification on your equipment.
What it is and how it works
A specialist for specific equipment, checked before you decide
WORKIN recruits line setters, CNC machine operators, mechanics, electromechanics and welders. The company describes the equipment and the task, and we find people with the right experience, check their grade and clearances and bring the specialist to their first independent shift.
First we fix the profile: machine make and CNC system, line type, electrical clearance group, welding type and the documentation the person will work with. We look for technical specialists where they actually are: India, Turkey, China, Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan. The technical check adds 1-3 weeks, but the qualification is visible before you decide.
Before the decision we arrange a video interview with your engineer: he makes the call on qualification, not the recruiter. The migration partner handles the permit and visa, and WORKIN arranges arrival and housing. In the first week the specialist works under a mentor, and if the qualification does not fit, the contract's replacement term applies.

The problem we solve
The equipment stands idle because there is nobody to run it
A technical shortage is different from a shortage of hands: one person cannot be replaced by two. Idle equipment costs more than any sourcing.
A purchased line was never started
The equipment arrived and was installed, but there is no setter for it. The line stands still while it has already been paid for.
One specialist holds the whole floor
When the only setter takes leave or resigns, production stops. That risk only becomes visible after the fact.
Welders without a confirmed grade
The person says they weld, but there is no certification. On load-bearing structures that fails both technically and against the rules.
Nobody to maintain the equipment
With no mechanic on staff, repairs are called in from outside. Every call-out costs money and time while the line is down.
Who we source
Trades, operations and what exactly we verify
A technical job title without the operations tells you nothing. That is why the profile shows the actual equipment and work, not the label.

Who runs the project
Who is responsible for technical specialists
The technical brief, the search and interviews in the candidates' own language are handled by different specialists, and you get status updates from one manager.
Olena Lytvynenko
Head of enterprise projects
Takes the technical brief and arranges the video interview with your engineer.
Kemal Aslan
Head of recruitment
Runs the search in several countries and checks grade, certificates and experience.
Rajesh Kumar
Worker relations manager
Recruits line setters and welders in India and checks documents before you see them.
Emre Yıldız
Worker relations manager
Searches for specialists in Turkey and interviews them in their own language.
Contract
Documents for technical recruitment
We recruit specialists under the recruitment and migration support contract. The request records the equipment and qualification requirements, the procedure sets who approves a candidate and when, and the acceptance act closes the stage after the shift starts.
We send the templates before signing so your lawyer has time to review them.
Cases and project scenarios
How this works on technical projects
Below are delivered WORKIN projects. Company names are withheld under confidentiality terms; everything else is shown as it happened.
Agriculture and food
Launching a packaging shift at a food plant
There was nobody to staff the extra shift: local response did not cover the need.

Warehousing and logistics
Warehouse complex: pickers for an extended shift
Extending the shift ran into a shortage of pickers.
View case →
Manufacturing
Woodworking: machine operators and sorters
Areas stood idle for lack of operators, sorters and packers.

Construction: reinforcing the crew at the concrete stage
The concrete stage needed people with real experience, not general labourers.

Questions and answers
What companies ask about technical sourcing
Answers to the questions that come up before a project starts.
First we get the make, model and control system from you. Then we look for someone with experience on exactly that type, check their licences and arrange a video interview with your engineer before any decision.
We say so honestly at the start. For a rare make sourcing takes longer, and sometimes the practical answer is a specialist from a similar system who will need retraining. We do not promise an exact match when there isn't one.
Visa-free directions take 4-7 weeks, visa ones 8-12. Technical verification adds one to three weeks compared with straightforward trades. That is the part of the timeline that protects you from a mistake on arrival.
On complex equipment, during the introduction period, often yes. After that people work from technical documentation and demonstration. We state the language level in the profile honestly, without dressing it up.
Yes, that is a normal request. Technical sourcing is pinpoint work: one to three people for a specific position is the most common case on this direction.
The company. We verify qualification and licences before arrival, but clearance, briefing and introduction to the equipment are the employer's responsibility under occupational safety rules.
The contractual replacement term applies. But checking beforehand is cheaper: that is exactly why we insist on a video interview with your engineer before the decision rather than after arrival.
The licence confirms experience, but the certification requirements for your structures are set by the company. We present the document as it is and never pass it off as a Ukrainian clearance.
