The problem

The AI talent shortage in the Kingdom

Every business in Saudi Arabia wants to use AI, but genuine AI engineers are some of the hardest people in the world to hire. Demand from NEOM, banks, government programmes and startups far outstrips supply, and salaries for senior ML talent have gone through the roof.

Hiring a permanent AI team is slow and risky when your AI roadmap is still taking shape. You may need a senior LLM engineer for a focused build, not a five-person department on payroll forever.

Many teams end up stalling promising AI ideas simply because they cannot get the right engineer in the room quickly enough.

The solution

Shyphan gives you applied AI talent on demand

Shyphan gives you access to pre-vetted AI engineers who have actually shipped models and AI features to production. Tell us your use case, whether it is a GenAI assistant, a recommendation engine, document intelligence, computer vision or an MLOps pipeline, and we match the right specialist within 24-48 hours.

Your AI engineer joins your team within 72 hours and works to your direction, integrating with your data, your stack and your security requirements, with full overlap to Saudi business hours. You get senior capability without committing to a permanent hire before your AI strategy is proven.

Everything runs on a flexible monthly contract, so you can run a focused proof-of-concept, then scale the team as the value becomes clear, all while keeping full ownership of your models, data and IP.

Many teams pair this with our other services. You can read more about IT outstaffing in Saudi Arabia, or combine engineers with custom software development and web application development when you want a finished product, not just people.
