Remote Flutter & React Native Dev - UK Marketplace — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
This posting describes a contract/agency software development role channeled through Deazy, a UK marketplace. The nature of agency-based project work through a platform like Deazy is generally highly compatible with remote and location-independent work, as software delivery agencies routinely work distributed across time zones.
The rate on offer — USD 40–45/hour — is solid for a digital nomad context. Here's a quick cost-of-living comparison:
- Lisbon, Portugal: A comfortable nomad lifestyle runs ~$2,500–$3,500/month. At 40h/week, this rate yields ~$6,400–$7,200/month gross — well above local costs.
- Bangkok, Thailand: A comfortable lifestyle costs ~$1,500–$2,500/month, making this rate extremely competitive.
- Medellín, Colombia: Costs of ~$1,200–$2,000/month mean this contract rate provides excellent purchasing power.
Since this is project-based work through an intermediary platform, timezone flexibility will depend on the end client assigned by Deazy — UK-based clients may require some overlap with GMT/BST hours. Confirm async vs. sync expectations per project.
No specific travel perks, equipment stipends, or coworking allowances are mentioned. As a contractor, budgeting for your own setup is essential. Visa-wise, most nomad-friendly countries allow remote contract work under tourist or digital nomad visas (Portugal, Thailand, Colombia all have relevant options).
What is Deazy
Deazy is a UK-based platform/marketplace that connects companies needing software development with development agencies around the world. They acquire the client, define the project, and then assign it to an agency like Somnio for execution. Essentially, they act as an intermediary between the end client and us.
How the model works
Deazy bills the end client at their own rate (in this case they are discussing EUR 47/h, though it still needs to be confirmed whether that is the rate charged to the client or what they pay the supplier). We invoice Deazy at a lower rate, and the difference is their margin.
The introductory rate we are offering them is USD 45/h – USD 40/h, designed to give Deazy a comfortable margin, prioritize us, and open the account.
If the relationship works, Deazy can assign us projects on a recurring basis without us having to go out and find them ourselves. It is an indirect sales channel — they bring the client, we deliver. The potential volume is significant if we position ourselves well with them.
Deazy knows us primarily as a Flutter agency. The work now is to show them that we are also strong in React Native, React, Node.js, Python, and AI.
