Staff augmentation
Drop senior engineers into your existing team — with your process, your standards, and your codebase — to unblock or accelerate a specific effort.
What comes with staff augmentation
Direct, low-overhead engineer placement into your existing team — with none of the parallel-tooling drag.
Individual senior hires
One engineer, or a handful — placed as individuals into your team, not delivered as a self-contained pod.
Direct integration with your team
Engineers join your squads, your standups, and your PR reviews — treated like any other teammate.
Your process, your standards
We use your Git flow, your linting, your test bar, your release process. We do not impose ours.
Your codebase
Engineers work directly in your repositories. No parallel forks, no proprietary internal tools between us.
Flexible ramp-up
Start with one engineer this week, scale to three next month if it's working. Ramp on your terms.
Simple monthly billing
One monthly invoice per engineer, one clear rate. No PO gymnastics, no hidden overhead, no minimum billable hours.
From skill-set brief to engineer on your team
A four-step flow tuned for speed — engineers on your team inside a week, not a hiring quarter.
Skill-set brief
A 30-minute call to define seniority, stack, and the specific work the engineer will pick up in the first two weeks.
Engineer shortlist in 48 hours
Two or three matched engineer profiles delivered within 48 hours, each with recent shipped work you can review.
Interview & select
You interview the shortlisted engineers with your normal rubric. Fit and technical bar are decided by you, not us.
Start within the week
Selected engineer joins your Slack, repos, and standups. Contract, invoicing, and onboarding paperwork handled by us.
Where staff aug is the right fit
Staff aug is the right model when the process is yours, the team is yours, and what you need is more senior capacity fast.
Fill an urgent skill gap
A specific gap — a Kubernetes SRE, a Solidity engineer, a React Native lead — where hiring internally would take a quarter.
Cover a hiring backlog
When the recruiting pipeline is slow and headcount approvals are stuck but the roadmap can't wait.
Ramp for a launch push
Time-boxed capacity to hit a launch date, with engineers rolling off cleanly once the release stabilizes.
Specialist expertise (e.g. GPU inference)
A narrow specialization your team doesn't have full-time need for, but does need done right the first time.
Regulated environments (US-based)
US-based, background-checked engineers for environments with residency, clearance, or compliance constraints.
Short-term parallel workstreams
A second workstream in flight alongside the roadmap — where the internal team stays focused and augmented engineers ship the parallel work.
Any stack we match to yours
We match engineers to whatever you already run — these are the categories we place in most often.
What you get from staff augmentation
The advantages of individual senior placement over a self-contained vendor pod.
Start in 48 hours
Shortlist back in two business days, engineers on the team within the week — not a hiring quarter.
Senior-only engineers
Every engineer we place has real production experience in your stack. No juniors on the invoice as seniors.
Direct engagement, no layers
You interview, choose, and manage the engineers. We stay out of the day-to-day and handle the paperwork.
Cancel monthly if needs change
30-day notice, month-to-month terms. Scale down or roll off cleanly when the need ends.
AI capacity delivered through staff aug
AI engineers embedded into a client team to accelerate a production RAG rollout.

A senior bench, direct engagement, and the discipline to slot into your process without importing ours.
Learn more about us →Senior-only engineers
Every engineer we place has shipped production work in your stack. Vetted for judgment, not just résumé.
We fit your process — you don't adapt to ours
Your rituals, your Git flow, your review bar. We come in as senior teammates, not as a vendor with its own methodology.
Direct access to the engineers
You interview, choose, and work with the engineers themselves. No account manager between you and the work.
Honest replacements, on us
If a placement isn't working, we replace them within two weeks at our cost. Fit issues stay ours.
