Dedicated Engineering

Most product teams have more engineering demand than their current capacity can absorb, but scoping a project for every feature creates overhead that slows everything down. Dedicated Engineering is the answer: senior engineers embedded inside your team, working in your tools and process, delivering at the pace your backlog demands.

What this is

One or two senior engineers allocated to your organization on a committed hourly basis. This is not a project engagement with a defined end. It is sustained engineering capacity, on, for as long as you need it.

High-volume, high-velocity, continuous delivery. There is no scoping overhead for individual requests. You don't open a ticket and wait for a quote. Capacity is allocated, work flows in, and software ships.

You get production-grade work at the same quality bar as our fixed-price delivery. The difference is that instead of scoping a discrete project, you're buying throughput.

Who this is for

Organizations with enough ongoing development demand to justify dedicated allocation. If you have a continuous backlog of meaningful engineering work (features, integrations, improvements), dedicated capacity removes the friction of scoping each item individually.

Ideal profiles:

  • Product companies that need sustained feature velocity without growing headcount
  • Fast-growing SMBs whose internal team can't keep pace with demand
  • Organizations mid-transformation that need engineering throughput while a permanent team is being built

This is not the right fit for teams that need infrastructure ownership rather than engineering throughput. If that is what you are looking for, take a look at our Ongoing Partnership offering instead.

How it works

You commit to a monthly hour volume. We commit to delivering those hours at a rate based on the volume you've locked in. Billing is monthly, in advance.

Engineers work inside your environment: your tools, your repos, your communication channels. You add them to your Slack, your Jira, your GitHub organization. They attend your standups. They are, for all practical purposes, part of your team.

  • Your tooling: We adapt to your stack and workflow, not the other way around
  • Your process: Sprint planning, backlog grooming, code review. We plug in wherever you need us.
  • Your standards: We bring our quality bar with us, and we raise the level of the work around us

The engagement scales. Need more hours next month? We discuss and adjust. Need to pause? We give you runway to wind down cleanly.

How this differs from Project Delivery

Project Delivery is defined scope, fixed price, defined end. You know what you're getting, what it costs, and when it's done. That model is the right choice when you have a discrete system to build.

Dedicated Engineering has no defined end. It runs for as long as you need the capacity. There is no SOW per feature, no scoping overhead before each piece of work, no change orders when requirements evolve. You have engineers on your team. You direct the work, we deliver it.

The two models complement each other. A Dedicated Engineering engagement is a natural continuation after a delivered project, when the product needs to keep moving but a new scoped engagement would add too much overhead for the pace you need.
