Engineering Services
Build the software your business needs next.
Engineers who work with your team on new features, platforms, and existing systems. We build in your codebase, agree on working hours, and plan the testing and deployment with you.
What we do
Product Development
A team led by senior engineers, with QA and DevOps, to deliver features against an agreed scope and acceptance criteria.
Forward-deployed engineering
An engineer works alongside your team to build software around a real workflow, with feedback from the people who use it.
Platform Engineering
Internal platforms, development environments, and tooling for building, testing, and deploying your software.
Modernization & Technical Debt
Work on the parts of your existing system that hold up changes: dependencies, test coverage, architecture, and integrations.
QA Automation
Automated tests for the user flows and risks that matter to your product, integrated into your delivery process.
Cloud & DevOps
Cloud infrastructure, deployment pipelines, monitoring, and cost visibility, with operating responsibilities agreed with your team.
Staff Augmentation
Senior engineers who join your team under your management, with roles and shared working hours agreed before they start.
Proof
From 2012 to 2019, we worked on Auth0’s product components, Python and Node.js libraries, and extensions. For Influenster, we used user journeys to guide development and helped set up continuous integration and delivery. Our work with CareerVillage began in 2013. In the first phase, we upgraded Django, migrated part of the front end to React, automated deployment, and adapted the site for mobile. For Envio 360, we helped build a multi-tenant planning platform with TMS data uploads, in optimization work that predates LLMs.

How we use AI to build software
We use AI tools to draft code, tests, and documentation. The work still needs to fit your product: what users can do, how data moves, and what happens when something fails.
Engineers review those changes before they are merged. We define acceptance criteria with you, test the relevant behavior, and record technical decisions. When the product itself includes AI, we also agree on evaluation cases and monitoring for production.
What goes into the delivery plan
Scope and acceptance criteria
We document the behavior to build, relevant edge cases, and the criteria for accepting the work.
Tests that check the behavior
Engineers review tests against the requirements, including cases where the feature must reject an action or handle a failure.
Automated checks
We configure build and test checks in the agreed delivery pipeline and define the checks required before release.
Release responsibilities
We agree on who reviews, approves, and deploys changes, and who responds to issues in production.
From the field
How engagements run
We offer fixed-price projects and monthly subscriptions priced on agreed deliverables. The proposal defines the scope, team, duration, review cadence, and how changes or an early end are handled. For staff augmentation, engineers work under your direction. They start with a trial period agreed up front; you pay for that time only if you continue.
FAQ
How is this different from staff augmentation?
For product development, we coordinate engineering, QA, and deployment around agreed deliverables. With staff augmentation, engineers join your team and work under your direction. The proposal defines the responsibilities for the model you choose.
Can you work inside our codebase and standards?
Yes. We review your codebase, development standards, access requirements, and release process before agreeing on the work. Our work inside Auth0’s product from 2012 to 2019 included components, libraries, and extensions.
Can you work on a system with no tests and no docs?
That's the typical patient. Stabilize first, then change.
What happens to the code when the engagement ends?
The code we build belongs to you and stays in your repository. We include tests and documentation in the delivery scope and agree on the operating notes and handover needed for your team to maintain it.
