Qdrant Solutions simplifies global operations through integrated EOR and Contractor Management

Qdrant Solutions is a fast-growing software company building advanced vector search capabilities to improve both internal and customer-facing search results. To deliver a best-in-class product, Qdrant prioritises recruiting the best global talent regardless of where they are based.

But for Andre Zayarni, that has meant coordinating a team across 15 countries, from Argentina to the United States and the United Kingdom. With staff operating under varied legal and cultural frameworks, substantial administrative challenges began to surface. By partnering with Remote, Qdrant brought its international operations together into a single, efficient workflow.

The challenge: friction in global expansion

As Qdrant grew beyond 15 contractors, the demands of hiring internationally became a significant drain on the operations team. Establishing a US subsidiary proved especially taxing, requiring tax advisers and accountants to interpret local labour rules and benefit systems, which pulled crucial focus away from other priorities.

Aside from compliance, the team was weighed down by repetitive manual work — entering each invoice amount into banking portals. The chance of human error was high, and the administrative load distracted leaders from developing the product.

"The time saved is not so much a countable number of hours as the removal of pointless, repetitive manual tasks that drain energy and demotivate staff."

Dominik Alberts, Head of Finance and Operations

The solution: a unified platform for a global team

Qdrant started using Remote early on to simplify its international processes. The aim was to balance different cultural approaches while giving each team member a dependable, localised support structure.

"Having both EOR and contractor management under one roof is useful for the company. It lets us handle everything within a single system."

Remote Employer of Record (EOR)

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

Remote Contractor Management

For their international freelancers, the workflow became instant. Contractors simply uploaded invoices to the Remote platform, removing the need for manual contract tracking and fragmented communications.

"No payroll complaints is good news. HR admin should be uneventful when operations are running smoothly."

The impact: consolidated operations and zero headaches

The biggest benefit for Qdrant has been centralising administrative tasks. Rather than carrying out 30+ separate bank transfers, the finance team now produces one payment file to pay everyone worldwide.

For employees the experience is seamless. The platform's reliability has resulted in a complete absence of payroll complaints — a metric Dominik regards as the clearest sign of success.

"I would recommend other companies, especially younger ones, to adopt a solution like Remote as it saves considerable time and spares many legal compliance headaches."
