Qdrant Solutions simplifies worldwide operations with integrated EOR and contractor management

Qdrant Solutions is a rapidly growing software firm building advanced vector search capabilities to enhance both internal and customer-facing search. To produce a best-in-class product, Qdrant prioritises hiring top global talent regardless of where they are based.

For Andre Zayarni, that translated into managing a distributed team across 15 countries — from Argentina to the United States and the United Kingdom. With staff operating under varied legal and cultural systems, administrative complexity mounted. Partnering with Remote allowed Qdrant to centralise its international processes into one efficient workflow.

The challenge: friction caused by global expansion

As Qdrant brought on more than 15 contractors, the burden of international hiring drained the operations team. Establishing a US subsidiary proved especially taxing — it required tax advisers and accountants to untangle local employment rules and benefits, diverting key internal attention away from other priorities.

Beyond compliance, the team was weighed down by tedious manual work—entering each invoice into banking portals. That manual process raised the risk of error and distracted leadership from product development.

"Time saved is less about a concrete tally of hours and more about removing tedious, repetitive manual chores that drain energy and demotivate staff."

Dominik Alberts, Head of Finance and Operations

The solution: one platform to support a global team

Qdrant implemented Remote early to simplify its cross-border operations. The aim was to balance differing cultural approaches while providing every team member with stable, localised infrastructure.

"Having both EOR and contractor management in one place simplifies things for the company. It lets us manage everything in one system."

Remote Employer of Record (EOR)

Remote's EOR services enabled Qdrant to handle the complexity of hiring full-time employees without having to manage every aspect of legal compliance and local labour law themselves.

Remote Contractor Management

For global freelancers, the workflow became immediate. Contractors upload invoices to the Remote platform, removing the need for manual contract tracking and fragmented communications.

"No payroll complaints is good news. HR administration should be unremarkable when operations run smoothly."

Dominik Alberts, Head of Finance and Operations

The impact: consolidated operations and zero headaches

The most meaningful change for Qdrant is the centralisation of administrative tasks. Rather than processing 30+ separate bank transfers, the finance team now generates one payment file to pay everyone globally.

For employees, the outcome is seamless. The platform's reliability has produced a complete lack of payroll complaints — a metric Dominik regards as the clearest indicator of success.

"I recommend other companies, particularly young ones, use a solution like Remote since it saves substantial time and reduces legal compliance headaches."
