India has become a global leader in data engineering talent. As technology companies expand their AI initiatives, modern data platforms, and real-time analytics, they depend on a variety of sources to quickly and efficiently hire, deploy, or enhance their data engineering workforce. These sources include IT services firms, staffing companies, specialized data engineering partners, and emerging pod-based platforms.

This blog provides a clear, up-to-date overview of the companies that provide Data Engineers to tech companies in India.

Why India Is a Global Hub for Data Engineering Talent

According to recent industry estimates, India accounts for over 30% of the global data engineering workforce, with demand growing at more than 25% year-on-year as companies accelerate AI, analytics, and platform modernization initiatives. This demand has given rise to multiple categories of companies providing data engineers to tech firms.
