How we staff engagements

We support founders and engineering leaders who need capacity without a long permanent hire cycle. You get clear timelines, a defined vetting process, flexible engagement options, and pricing before interviews.

Placement speed

2–3 weeks

Role intake, sourcing, and technical screening through to a shortlist you can interview. Typical start within 2–4 weeks after you select a profile.

Vetting process

4-step screen

Stack and experience match, communication check, live technical review with a senior engineer, and reference checks before profiles reach you.

Engagement models

Flexible

Dedicated augmentation, contract staffing, or contract-to-hire. Engineers work in your repositories, tools, and time zones, with IP assigned to you.

Pricing range

Custom bands

Monthly or hourly bands by seniority and stack, quoted before interviews so finance and engineering can align on budget.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to receive a shortlist?

Most roles are shortlisted in 2–3 weeks after intake. Timing depends on seniority, stack rarity, and how quickly feedback comes back on the first profiles.

How do you vet candidates before we interview?

We screen for stack and experience fit, run a communication check, complete a live technical review with a senior engineer, and verify references before profiles reach you.

What engagement models do you support?

Dedicated staff augmentation, contract staffing, and contract-to-hire. Engineers join your tools, repositories, and ceremonies. IP is assigned to your company.

What if the person is not a fit after starting?

We replace in up to 30 days at no extra sourcing fee. Tell us early so we can protect your timeline.

How does pricing work?

We quote monthly or hourly bands by seniority and stack before interviews. That keeps finance and engineering aligned on budget before you invest time in the process.
