STAFF AUGMENTATION

Extend your team with
engineers who ship.

Add experienced engineers, or a coordinated delivery pod, across AI, cloud, data, web, mobile and product engineering. You work directly with the people doing the work.

01 / WHO THIS IS FOR

Four situations,
one shape of answer.

Staff augmentation fits when you need capacity quickly, a specialist skill you do not have, or cover for a role you are still hiring for — and you want to keep ownership of the work.

Funded startups

An active roadmap and a deadline that arrives sooner than a permanent hire can. You need senior execution now, without building a department around it first.

Scaling SaaS teams

A growing backlog or a platform initiative that would slow the core team if you absorbed it. Capacity across web, cloud, data or AI, for a defined stretch.

Agencies and consultancies

Client work that needs specialists you do not keep on permanent payroll. We work white-label, behind your brand, with you owning the client relationship.

Enterprise digital teams

An approved programme — cloud, data, AI, modernisation — that needs external capacity working inside your process and your governance.

02 / WHAT WE PROVIDE

From one engineer
to a whole pod.

The right structure depends on the gap, how much management capacity you have, and how long the work runs.

01

A dedicated developer

One engineer who joins your existing team, works in your tools, and takes direction from your leads.

02

Several specialists

Two or more engineers covering related roles — a backend and a frontend, or a data engineer alongside a platform engineer.

03

A delivery pod

A small coordinated team spanning frontend, backend, cloud, mobile, data or AI, working as one unit.

04

White-label engineering

Delivery capacity for agencies and consultancies. We stay behind your brand; you keep the client relationship.

05

Short specialist support

A focused engagement for an architecture question, a platform decision, an audit, or a delivery problem that needs a specific skill briefly.

03 / ENGAGEMENT MODELS

Compare the models,
including where each fails.

The last row matters most. If your requirement sits there, a different model — or a different supplier — is the better answer, and we would rather say so early.

A short engagement will not hold it.
04 / CAPABILITIES

The work we
can actually staff.

We supply capacity in the areas this studio already builds in. If a requirement sits outside them, we will tell you rather than find someone to fit the brief.

05 / HOW IT WORKS

Five steps,
no surprises.

We do not publish start dates before the checks are done. A date that depends on notice periods and access approvals is not ours alone to promise.

1

Share the requirement

Skills, team size, timezone, expected start and duration.

2

We confirm fit

If we can staff it credibly, we share approved profiles or propose a team. If we cannot, we say so.

3

You interview

You meet the people who would actually work with you, and run whatever technical evaluation you normally would.

4

Agree the terms

Scope, commercials, security, access and onboarding, in writing.

5

Start

The engineer or team joins your workflow, with ongoing delivery and commercial support from us.

06 / QUESTIONS WORTH ASKING

The answers
before you ask.

Including the ones most suppliers leave off the page — what happens when a placement is not working, and who owns what.

Can we hire one developer, or does it have to be a team?

Either. An engagement can start with one approved engineer, several specialists, or a coordinated pod. Starting with one and adding later is common.

Who manages the daily work?

Normally you do. You set priorities and the engineer works inside your delivery process. We handle performance, continuity and the commercial relationship. On a pod, coordination is shared.

Can we interview people before starting?

Yes, and we would expect you to. We share relevant approved profiles first, then you run interviews and whatever technical evaluation you normally use.

How quickly can someone start?

It depends on the role, availability, your interview timing, notice periods, contract approval and access requirements. We confirm a date once those are checked rather than before — an early date we cannot keep helps neither of us.

What engagement durations do you work with?

Monthly and longer engagements are the norm. Short specialist support is available for architecture, audits or a specific delivery problem.

What happens if the engineer is not working out?

Raise it early rather than at the end of a sprint. There is an agreed escalation path, and replacement and handover terms are set in the contract before work starts. We would rather resolve it than defend a placement.

What if someone leaves mid-engagement?

Continuity is our responsibility, not yours. The contract sets out the handover and replacement process, including what documentation and context transfers. Specific timelines are agreed per engagement rather than promised in advance.

Who owns the code and the IP?

You do. Ownership terms are set in the contract before any work begins, alongside confidentiality terms.

What timezone overlap can we expect?

We are based in Ahmedabad, India, and work with clients across the Middle East, Europe, the UK, the US and India. Overlap hours are agreed per engagement and confirmed before it starts, because they depend on the person as well as the region.

Do you work white-label for agencies?

Yes. We stay behind your brand and you keep the client relationship. The specifics — how we appear, who communicates with the end client, what goes in writing — are agreed before the engagement starts.

TELL US WHAT YOU NEED

Send the requirement,
get rates and profiles.

The more of this you can answer, the faster we can tell you whether we can staff it credibly — and say so plainly if we cannot.

  1. We read it properly. A person, not a form router.
  2. We confirm fit, or decline. If we cannot staff it well, that is the reply you get.
  3. Profiles and rates. Then interviews with the people themselves.
