Lundi supports compliant employment in Israel for specialist senior hires — Tel Aviv concentrates the senior tech, cybersecurity, and AI talent (Wiz, Monday.com, Checkpoint heritage). One of the world's deepest deep-tech ecosystems at premium cost. For cost-driven scaling, Poland or Romania.
Israel has built one of the world's deepest deep-tech, cybersecurity, and AI talent ecosystems — Tel Aviv concentrates senior engineering, AI/ML, and cybersecurity talent (Wiz, Monday.com, Checkpoint, Palo Alto Networks-Israel, plus extensive multinational R&D presence). Jerusalem adds defense-tech and government-adjacent operations; Haifa concentrates technical engineering. Israeli shekel (ILS) is the local currency. Employer social contributions run ~5–7.6% above gross (relatively low). Premium senior engineering compensation — frequently the highest in Europe/MENA for specific deep-tech specializations. Strong fit for specialist senior cybersecurity, AI, and deep-tech hires. For cost-driven scaling Lundi typically recommends Poland or Romania.
What it costs to employ someone through Lundi.
Lundi's cost is the all-in cost of the employee — gross salary plus statutory employer contributions plus customary benefits — and a Lundi management fee on top. The management fee depends on team size and scope: smaller teams pay a higher per-head rate, teams of 20+ get materially better unit economics, and Build–Operate–Transfer engagements are structured separately.
The alternative paths look like: setting up your own local entity (meaningful months of legal and accounting work, plus ongoing in-country HR, payroll, and compliance infrastructure), engaging a local recruitment agency on contingency (typically a percentage of first-year compensation, paid once, with no ongoing employment relationship), or hiring as a contractor (lower upfront cost, real misclassification risk in most jurisdictions). Lundi is faster than entity setup, structurally different from contingency recruitment, and lower-risk than contractor arrangements.

The length of a notice period in Israel depends on the length of the employee's service, with a maximum of 30 days. An employer can choose to make a payment to the employee in lieu of having them serve out the notice period.
Lundi works with companies building teams of 10 or more across business, technical, and operational functions . Not for one-off hires or individual placements.
EOR platforms employ individuals for you. Lundi recruits, employs, and operates concentrated teams — including day-to-day management, HR, and an optional path to your own entity. It's the operating model for companies that have outgrown the EOR ceiling.
