Dedicated Engineering
Senior engineers embedded on your team — same Slack, same repo, same sprint.
Staff Augmentation, Done Right
Let's be honest about what most "staff augmentation" looks like: you get a developer who's juggling 3 clients, half-attends your standups, and writes code that nobody on your team can maintain after they leave.
That's not what we do.
When we embed engineers on your team, they're fully dedicated. One team, one codebase, one mission. They use your systems, follow your conventions, and attend your retros. The goal is that after a few weeks, you can't tell the difference between our engineers and yours.
How It Works
Matching
We don't just throw warm bodies at your problem. We match engineers based on:
- Technical fit: does their experience match your stack, your domain, and the specific challenges you're facing?
- Seniority fit: do you need someone who can lead architecture decisions, or someone who can execute against a clear spec?
- Team fit: will they work well with your existing team's communication style and pace?
We'll do a technical deep-dive with your team before proposing anyone. If the fit isn't right, we'll tell you rather than force a placement.
Onboarding
We handle onboarding seriously because the first two weeks determine whether an embedded engineer will be productive:
- Week 1: Codebase walkthrough, architecture overview, local dev setup, access to all systems and environments. Pair programming with your existing engineers to understand patterns and conventions.
- Week 2: First pull requests. Small, well-scoped tasks to build context and trust. Your team reviews everything.
- Week 3+: Full velocity. Owning features, participating in design discussions, and contributing like a permanent team member.
Day-to-Day
Our embedded engineers:
- Join your daily standups and sprint ceremonies
- Use your Slack (or Teams, or whatever you use)
- Work in your repository with your CI/CD pipelines
- Follow your code review process
- Write tests to your coverage standards
- Document their work in your wiki
They don't report to us during the engagement. They report to your engineering lead. We check in periodically to make sure things are going well on both sides, but day-to-day management is yours.
Knowledge Transfer
Every embedded engagement includes knowledge transfer as a first-class concern:
- Detailed PR descriptions and commit messages
- Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for significant technical decisions
- Documentation for any new systems or patterns introduced
- Pair programming sessions with your junior engineers
- Handoff document at the end of the engagement
What You Get
Senior Engineers
Everyone we embed has at least 5 years of professional experience. They've shipped production systems, debugged outages at 2 AM, and know the difference between "technically correct" and "actually useful."
Our team has deep experience in:
- .NET / C#: APIs, microservices, Azure Functions
- React / Next.js: SPAs, SSR, complex frontend state
- Angular: enterprise frontends, complex forms, RxJS
- Flutter / React Native: cross-platform mobile
- Azure / AWS: cloud infrastructure, DevOps, serverless
- SQL Server / PostgreSQL: data modeling, query optimization, migrations
Flexibility
Need 2 engineers for 6 months? Need 1 engineer for 3 months and then scale up to 4? Need someone for a specific project and then wind down? We can accommodate.
Typical engagements are 3-12 months, but we've done shorter sprints for specific projects and longer relationships for companies that found it worked well.
No Lock-In
We don't create dependencies. Our goal is to make your team stronger, not to make you dependent on us. If after 6 months you want to hire your own engineers and phase us out, we'll help make that transition smooth.
Who This Is For
Growth-stage companies that need to move faster than their current team size allows. If you have product-market fit (or you're close), and you need to ship more features than your current team can handle, we can help.
Common scenarios:
- You need to double your engineering output before your next milestone
- You have a strong technical founder but need more senior hands to scale the codebase
- You're entering a new vertical (mobile, enterprise, regulated industry) and need specialized expertise
- Your existing team is stretched thin and you need breathing room while you hire
If you're spending more time in recruiting pipelines than in code, we can bridge the gap while you build your permanent team.
