Hiring AI talent in Orlando?
There is a better way.

AI specialists in Orlando cost ~$120,000-$180,000/year (typical) and get scooped by defense contractors near UCF before you can make an offer. Rendai gives you a dedicated AI team for starting at $2,500/mo. No hiring. No turnover. No six-month ramp-up.

The Problem

Hiring AI talent in Orlando is brutal.

UCF produces AI talent. Lockheed Martin, L3Harris, and SAIC hire them before graduation. The talent that remains commands enterprise salaries that small businesses cannot match.

Six-month hiring cycles

Post the job, screen 200 resumes, interview 20 people, make an offer, wait for them to start, then spend three months onboarding. By the time they are productive, six months have passed.

Enterprise salary expectations

AI engineers in Orlando expect $120,000-$180,000 base plus equity and benefits. That is $150,000-$220,000 fully loaded. For most small businesses, that is not realistic.

Retention is a gamble

Even if you hire someone, defense contractors and big tech are always recruiting. Average tenure for AI engineers is ~18 months (typical). You invest in training, they leave for a bigger offer.
