For German DeepTech founders, the talent shortage in Munich, Berlin, and Hamburg isn't just a nuisance—it’s a threat to Series A and B milestones. India offers the PhD-level talent required for Robotics, AI, and Quantum computing, but the "compliance gap" often stops German founders in their tracks.
If you are a founder or CTO, you aren't just looking for "cheap code"; you are looking for Institutional Grade infrastructure. Here is how to build it without falling foul of German regulators or jeopardizing your IP.
1. The "German-Audit Ready" Payroll
When hiring in India, many founders settle for simple contractor agreements. This is a risk. To satisfy a German Finanzamt audit or a VC's due diligence, you need a robust setup.
The Solution: Use an Employer of Record (EOR) model that handles local statutory benefits like the Provident Fund (EPF) and Gratuity.
The "Niogod" Edge:
We ensure every Indian employee is onboarded with a contract that mirrors the protections expected by German stakeholders while complying with Indian state-level labor laws.
2. Safeguarding Your DeepTech IP
In DeepTech, your IP is the entire value of your company. German law is incredibly strict about the "chain of title" for intellectual property.
The Challenge: Indian law requires specific "Assignment of Copyright" and "Invention Assignment" clauses to ensure the company—not the individual engineer—owns the output.
The Fix: Our framework ensures that IP rights flow directly from the Indian entity to your German GmbH, creating a seamless legal "bridge" that satisfies both patent offices and future investors.
3. GDPR and Beyond: Data Sovereignty
Hiring outside the EEA (European Economic Area) triggers strict GDPR requirements for International Data Transfers.
The Requirement: You must implement Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and technical measures like full-disk encryption and centralized access logs.
Compliance at Scale: Niogod implements these "Technical and Organizational Measures" (TOMs) by default, ensuring your Indian hub is a secure extension of your Munich or Berlin office.
Why "Global" Platforms Aren't Enough
Generic global platforms are built for "Remote Marketing Managers." DeepTech is different. You need high-trust environments, specialized vetting for niche engineering roles, and a partner who understands that a Quantum Optics hire in Bangalore requires a different compliance profile than a generic developer.
