Benefits
Why teams use us for team extension
Hiring is hard. Scaling is harder. We make it easy.
Ramp up in days, not months
Most team extension engineers are productive in week 1. We match the right engineer to your stack and culture.
Direct communication
No middleman account manager. You talk to your engineers directly. Slack, Linear, your tools, your workflow.
Flexible engagement
Month-to-month, scale up or down with 2 weeks notice. No long-term contracts, no "exit fees".
Augment, not replace
We work with your team, not instead of them. Knowledge transfer is part of the engagement.
Predictable pricing
Fixed monthly rate per engineer, no surprise overage bills. Transparent scope of what each role covers.
Case study
Proof: Confidential fintech (Series A startup)
Fintech — 3 engineers for 9 months
The challenge
A Series A fintech needed to ship 4 product features in 6 months but had 2 in-house engineers and couldn't afford to hire 3 more full-time. They needed experienced React/Node devs who could hit the ground running.
What we built
Matched them with 3 senior engineers (2 React, 1 Node) within 2 weeks. Engineers joined their Slack, pair-programmed with the in-house team, and shipped all 4 features on time.

FAQ
Team extension questions
How fast can you match us with engineers?
+
Typically 1-2 weeks. We pre-vet engineers, understand your stack, and match by timezone + culture. If you have an urgent need, we can sometimes start in 3-5 days with a slightly narrower match.
How does pricing work?
+
Fixed monthly rate per engineer, based on seniority and stack. Rates range $8k-$18k/month per engineer. No setup fees, no minimum commitment beyond 1 month, no hidden costs.
What if the engineer isn't a fit?
+
We replace within 2 weeks, no questions asked. We aim for 95%+ match quality; if it doesn't work, we make it right quickly.
Do you sign NDAs and IP agreements?
+
Yes — your standard NDA, your IP assignment agreement. We sign what you need before any code is written.
How do you handle time zone overlap?
+
We staff engineers with at least 4 hours daily overlap with your timezone. For US-based teams, our engineers are US Eastern or Central. For EU teams, we have engineers in EU/UK.
Can we convert team extension to a full project?
+
Yes. If your needs evolve from staff augmentation to a project with defined scope, we can transition the same engineers. They know your codebase, your team, your culture.
