Can we interview the developers before they join?

Yes, and we encourage it. You receive profiles for the proposed engineers, then hold technical interviews in your usual format, whether that is a live coding session, a system design discussion or a review of a past pull request. Anyone you are not comfortable with is replaced before the engagement starts.

How senior are the engineers you place on US projects?

Engineers placed on US work are senior developers and QA engineers who have shipped production software for years and can work without close supervision. Each team has a lead who owns technical decisions and communication with you. We do not staff client work with interns or use your project as a training ground.

What happens outside the overlap hours?

Engineers keep working on agreed tickets after your overlap window closes, so pull requests, test results and a written end-of-day note are waiting when your team logs on. Urgent questions are raised during the overlap rather than left in a thread overnight, and on-call cover for production issues can be added to the contract.

How do we end the engagement or move the work in-house?

Give notice as the contract sets out and we plan the handover with you: documentation of architecture and deployment, recorded walkthroughs, paired sessions with your new hires and removal of our access on the final day. Because code and infrastructure were in your accounts from the start, nothing has to be transferred back.

Senior engineers, your roadmap

Software development outsourcing for US businesses, with a senior team

Our senior offshore engineers join your product as a dedicated team, as individual developers inside your own squads, or on a fixed-scope project. Every model comes with IP assignment, an agreed overlap window and code in your repositories.

About custom solutions

Three engagement models, and when each one fits

A dedicated team suits a product with a long roadmap: a tech lead, developers and a QA engineer who stay on your product month after month and learn its domain. Staff augmentation suits companies with strong engineering management that need two or three more senior people in existing squads. A fixed-scope project suits a defined piece of work, such as a new module, an integration or a rebuild, priced by milestone.

You do not have to pick one model forever. Many US clients start with a fixed-scope project to see how we work, then keep a smaller dedicated team for the next phase. Switching models is a contract change rather than a new vendor search, and the engineers who built the code usually stay on it.

How a senior team is set up in the first weeks

Our engineering and QA team has worked together since 2015, and the people placed on your work are senior engineers, not trainees learning on your budget. Before anyone starts, you meet the proposed lead and can interview each engineer. We match people to your stack and domain, whether that is a TypeScript SaaS product, a Python data service or a Flutter app.

Onboarding follows a written checklist: accounts in your GitHub, ticket tracker and chat, read access to documentation, a local environment that runs, and a first small ticket merged within the first week. The overlap window with Eastern or Central time is fixed in the contract, typically early morning for you, so standups, reviews and planning happen live while the rest of the work moves forward overnight.

Scaling the team up or down, and leaving cleanly

Team size follows your roadmap. Adding an engineer takes a few weeks of notice, and releasing one follows the notice period in the contract, without exit fees. Code ownership never depends on the relationship: work is assigned to your company under a work-for-hire agreement and NDA, invoiced monthly in USD, and every commit already sits in your repositories.

If you decide to bring the work in-house or move it elsewhere, the exit is planned like any other milestone. We write handover notes on architecture, deployment and open issues, record walkthrough sessions, pair with your new engineers for an agreed period and remove our own access on the last day, with written confirmation for your security team.

Questions

Software development outsourcing: common questions

With staff augmentation, our engineers join your squads and your engineering managers direct their daily work. With a dedicated team, we provide a tech lead who plans and runs delivery against your roadmap and priorities. Staff augmentation needs more of your management time, while a dedicated team needs less but gives you slightly less day-to-day control.
