Compliance-first delivery
Scale your team without the hiring lag
Hiring senior engineers takes months, and specialist skills — Kubernetes, security testing, HL7 and FHIR integration, production ML — are especially hard to find. Meanwhile the roadmap does not wait. Traditional outsourcing can fill the gap but often means handing work to a separate team you cannot see, with knowledge that leaves when the contract ends.
Our staff augmentation places engineers from our own delivery practices directly into your team. They attend your stand-ups, work in your repositories and ticketing system, follow your coding standards and report to your leads. Each engineer is matched to the role after a call to understand your stack and the work, and is backed by the wider practice, so a cloud engineer can draw on our DevOps automation experience and an integration engineer on our Mirth Connect specialists. If you would rather hand over a defined outcome than add capacity, our software development team can deliver the project end to end.
You get productive capacity quickly, flexible terms to scale with demand, and deliberate knowledge transfer so your team is stronger when the engagement ends. For a short senior review before deciding what kind of help you need, start with technology consulting.
- Senior cloud, DevOps, security, integration and AI engineers
- Embedded in your tools, rituals and coding standards
- Matched to your stack after a scoping call
- Flexible terms without long lock-ins
- Documentation and knowledge transfer built in
What's Included
Everything you need, delivered by a senior, security-first team.
Cloud Engineers
AWS, Azure and GCP engineers for migrations, landing zones and operations.
DevOps & SRE
Pipelines, Kubernetes, infrastructure as code and observability.
Security Engineers
Penetration testers, security engineers and GRC specialists.
Healthcare Integration
HL7 v2, FHIR, X12 and Mirth Connect interface engineers.
AI & Data
Data engineers and ML engineers for pipelines, RAG and model serving.
Full-Stack Developers
Node.js, Python, PHP/Laravel and React engineers who ship product features.
Add experienced engineers without the hiring lag
Hiring specialist engineers takes time, and some needs are temporary: a migration, a compliance deadline, a product launch, or covering a gap while you recruit. Staff augmentation lets you add vetted engineers who work inside your team, under your direction, using your tools and processes — on terms that scale up or down as priorities change.
Staff augmentation vs other models
| Model | Who directs the work | Who owns the outcome | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Staff augmentation | You | You | Adding skills or capacity to an existing team |
| Dedicated team | Shared, with our delivery lead | Shared | A product stream you want run end to end |
| Project / managed service | Us, against agreed scope or SLA | Us | Defined outcomes, e.g. a migration or 24/7 operations |
| Freelancers | You | You | Small, short tasks; less continuity and vetting |
| Permanent hire | You | You | Long-term core roles |
If you want an outcome rather than extra hands, our managed services or project-based teams may suit you better.
Roles we provide
- Cloud engineers and architects — AWS, Azure and GCP; see cloud infrastructure.
- DevOps and SRE engineers — CI/CD, Terraform, Kubernetes, observability; see DevOps automation.
- Security engineers — cloud security, IAM, compliance implementation and testing.
- AI and data engineers — data pipelines, MLOps and LLM applications; see generative AI.
- Full-stack and backend developers — TypeScript, Python, Go, PHP and mobile.
- Healthcare integration engineers — HL7, FHIR and Mirth Connect; see Mirth Connect services.
How it works
- Define the need — skills, seniority, responsibilities, working hours overlap, duration and tools.
- Shortlist — we propose engineers whose experience matches, with profiles for your review.
- Interview — you interview and choose; nobody joins without your approval.
- Onboard — access, tooling and an onboarding plan; engineers follow your workflow and rituals.
- Review and adjust — regular check-ins on fit and performance; scale up, down or swap with notice.
Security and IP
Engineers work under confidentiality agreements, intellectual property created is assigned to you, access uses individual accounts with least privilege and MFA, and access is revoked at the end of the engagement. For regulated environments, we can sign a Business Associate Agreement or data processing agreement as appropriate.
Making augmentation work
- Treat augmented engineers as team members: include them in stand-ups, reviews and planning.
- Define success for the first few weeks so ramp-up is measurable.
- Document critical knowledge so it stays when the engagement ends.
- Agree working-hour overlap and communication channels up front.
Common pitfalls
- Using augmentation to fill a role that really needs a permanent owner.
- Giving contractors shared or overly broad credentials.
- No onboarding, so even senior engineers take too long to contribute.

How Staff Augmentation Works
Scope
Call to understand the role, stack, team and duration.
Match
We propose engineers whose experience fits; you interview and choose.
Embed
Onboarding into your tools and process, with a check-in after the first weeks.
Review & Scale
Regular reviews, flexible scaling and a knowledge-transfer plan for the end of the engagement.
Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on the role and seniority. We aim to share suitable profiles quickly after understanding your requirements, and start dates are agreed once you have interviewed and selected an engineer.
Yes. You review profiles, interview candidates and decide who joins. Nobody is placed without your approval.
Usually a monthly or hourly rate per engineer based on role and seniority, with no long-term lock-in. Notice periods for scaling down or replacing engineers are agreed in the contract.
You do. Intellectual property created during the engagement is assigned to you, and engineers work under confidentiality agreements.
Tell us. We discuss the issue and, if needed, propose a replacement and support the handover.
