Build Your Dream Tech Team With Staff Augmentation

Hiring great engineers is slow, expensive and uncertain. Recruiting can take months, and a wrong hire costs even more. Meanwhile, your roadmap waits. Staff augmentation removes that bottleneck by giving you immediate access to experienced engineers who are already vetted, equipped and ready to work.

Our developers integrate directly into your team — attending your stand-ups, working in your repositories and reporting to your leads. You keep full control of priorities and process, while we handle recruitment, HR, equipment and retention.

Staff Augmentation FAQs

What is IT staff augmentation?

IT staff augmentation is a model where you add external engineers to your team on a flexible basis. They work under your direction and process, while the provider handles recruitment, employment and administration.

How quickly can developers start?

You'll typically receive matched profiles within 48 hours, and selected engineers can usually start within one to two weeks.

How is staff augmentation different from outsourcing?

With staff augmentation you manage the engineers and own the delivery. With project outsourcing, the provider manages the team and is accountable for delivering an agreed scope.

Can I interview the developers?

Yes. You interview and approve every engineer before they join your team, including technical assessments if you wish.

What if a developer isn't the right fit?

We offer a risk-free trial period and will replace any engineer quickly if the fit isn't right.

Who owns the code developers write?

You do. All work is covered by NDAs and IP assignment agreements, transferring ownership to you.

What time zones do your developers work in?

We guarantee overlap with your core working hours, and can arrange fully aligned schedules where needed.
