Still have questions? Contact us or book a call.
What is staff augmentation?
You add our engineers to your existing team for as long as you need them. They work in your tools, attend your stand-ups and report to your managers — we handle hiring, payroll, equipment and HR.
How quickly can a developer start?
We usually share matched profiles within a few days of understanding your requirements. Once you approve a candidate, onboarding can start straight away.
Can I interview the developers first?
Always. You review CVs, run your own technical interviews and only work with people you approve.
What if a developer isn't the right fit?
Tell us and we'll arrange a replacement at no extra cost, with a knowledge handover to keep your work moving.
Which time zones do you cover?
Our team works with clients across the US, UK, Europe and the Middle East, with guaranteed overlap hours agreed in your contract.
Who owns the code and IP?
You do. All work product and IP belong to you, and every engineer signs NDA and IP assignment agreements.
Can I scale the team up or down?
Yes. Add people as your roadmap grows or reduce headcount with notice — no long-term lock-in.
How is billing handled?
One simple monthly invoice per engineer or team, based on the engagement model you choose. No recruitment fees.
