​When it comes to finding tech talent, companies face many challenges: lengthy hiring processes, high demand for niche skills and fierce competition in the global talent pool. Adeva tackles these challenges head-on, enabling tech executives to onboard top talent from an exclusive network of the world’s best in product and technology.

Hundreds of companies, including Johnson & Johnson, Roche, Imgur and Deltatre, have partnered with Adeva to scale their product and engineering teams with the right talent.

Adeva’s revenue grew by over 3000% in the last three years. According to the chief financial officer, Docusign has played a part in supporting that growth. “To stay relevant, attractive and competitive, companies must be able to move fast,” said Aleksandra Simeonova. “The speed and reliability of signing contracts with Docusign have led to faster onboarding of vetted professionals, allowing us to empower our customers with high-profile talent quickly and efficiently.”

Cutting contract finalization from 20 days to a few hours

Adeva connects companies with tech talent in less than two days. But as the company expanded from a small developers community to a global network of distributed professionals, manual agreement processes stood in the way. International mail took weeks, and managing printed and scanned documents became increasingly difficult and risky.

Docusign eSignature was the “ideal solution,” said Simeonova. “Docusign offered everything we needed: templates, streamlined revisions, secure approval processes, robust archiving and documentation and audit trails—empowering us to transcend barriers, traverse borders and expand our horizons.”

The expedited signing process enabled Adeva to onboard clients and augment their teams with top talent up to 90% faster.

The time required to finalize contracts was reduced from 20 days to just a few hours or less, empowering us to onboard top talent in less than 48 hours. Using Docusign has positively influenced our onboarding process, directly contributing to a revenue increase of over 3000%.

Streamlining workflows in HubSpot

Initially, Adeva used a web-based Docusign plan managed solely by the CEO. When business and contract volume grew, the company wanted more flexibility to run international agreements at scale.

Upgrading to an enhanced plan unlocked advanced features like bulk sending, workflow automation, multi-user access and seamless integration with HubSpot.

Being able to send contracts directly from HubSpot resulted in a huge efficiency boost. By integrating Docusign into its workflows, Adeva streamlined contract management while strengthening trust with its clients and talent.

"As we expand into new markets, Docusign will remain central to our strategy, helping us maintain the highest standards of compliance and security and ensure a smooth experience for our users,” said Simeonova.

Now, Adeva’s small team can manage higher contract volumes without adding headcount or sacrificing speed. Stakeholders can generate agreements, track signature flow, get alerts and store final versions in the tool they use every day.

"In a way, Docusign is connecting our world,” said Simeonova. “We’ve successfully navigated the challenge of swiftly and securely executing contracts between parties on opposite sides of the globe.”

Building momentum with Intelligent Agreement Management

Since transforming agreement processes with eSignature, Adeva has become an official Docusign partner. The new partnership paves the way for Adeva’s tech talent to broaden their expertise and for industry leaders to hire certified Docusign experts for mission-critical projects.

"It’s been an incredible journey, and we look forward to emerging opportunities as both a valued customer and a partner that’s helping companies access certified Docusign experts across the globe,” Simeonova said.

As Adeva scales, it’s focused on using AI to spot hidden opportunities and extract valuable insights from agreements. Docusign Intelligent Agreement Management will play a pivotal role in future growth.

“Ultimately, adopting IAM will solidify our position as a market leader,” said Simeonova. “The entire Docusign ecosystem is developing faster than ever before, and we’re confident that we have the best partner alongside us.”
