Engineering on Demand

Senior engineers from our team, embedded in yours. Integrated, accountable, real teammates.

In short

  • What it is: senior engineers from our team embedded in yours — full-time, accountable, real teammates, including fractional CTO leadership.
  • Who it's for: teams that need senior capacity now, when a permanent hire would take months to land.
  • How it works: month-to-month, productive in week one, scale up or down with no penalty, and we transfer knowledge so the capability stays with you.

What's included

Embedded engineers

Full-time senior engineers who join your stand-ups, your codebase, and your Slack — real teammates, not an outsourced ticket queue. They're accountable for outcomes, the same as your own staff.

Fractional CTO

Senior technical leadership for early-stage teams without a CTO yet: architecture calls, hiring, vendor choices, and the judgement to say no. As much or as little time as you need.

Specialised hires

AI engineers, SREs, data engineers, and frontend specialists for the gap that doesn't justify a permanent hire. Senior depth in exactly the area you're missing.

Team ramp-up

We onboard fast and are typically productive in week one — reading your code, shipping small, and earning trust early instead of billing while we 'get up to speed'.

Flexible duration

Month-to-month or quarterly engagements that scale up or down with no penalty. Add capacity for a crunch, trim it when the crunch passes.

Knowledge transfer

We document, pair, and train as we go, so capability stays with your team. We're built to work ourselves out of a job, not to create dependency.

When to choose this

Good fit if

  • You need senior engineering capacity now and hiring will take 4 months
  • Your team has a gap (AI, data, devops) that doesn't justify a full-time hire
  • You're pre-CTO and need senior technical judgment in the room
  • You want to test what good looks like before you hire permanently

Maybe not if

  • You want body-shop staffing at the lowest possible rate
  • You can't or won't integrate the engineer into your team's daily work

Typical process

Every engagement runs the same transparent way. We agree a tight scope and a committed date up front, then work in short cycles with a live demo each week — so you watch real software take shape instead of reading status reports. You always know what's shipping, what's next, and why. Tap any step below for what actually happens; we adapt the exact cadence to your stage and scope.

We propose one or two engineers matched to your stack and your need. You interview them yourself and pick — or we re-match, no pressure.
