Build Your Dream Development Team in Weeks, Not Months

Dedicated teams work exclusively for you as an extension of your in-house team, typically on long-term projects (12+ months). They integrate deeply with your processes, attend all meetings, and build institutional knowledge. Staff augmentation provides individual specialists for shorter durations (3-12 months) to fill specific skill gaps. Dedicated teams offer better continuity, deeper product understanding, and stronger team cohesion. Think of dedicated teams as your remote office, while staff augmentation is more like hiring specialized contractors.

We typically assemble dedicated teams within 2-4 weeks from kickoff. Timeline breakdown: Days 1-3: Requirements gathering and candidate selection. Days 4-10: You conduct interviews with shortlisted candidates. Days 11-14: Contract finalization and onboarding preparation. Weeks 3-4: Team onboarding and initial sprint. For common tech stacks (React, Node.js, Python), we can move even faster. For niche technologies or very large teams (15+ people), allow 4-6 weeks. Our talent pool of 500+ pre-vetted developers enables rapid team formation while maintaining quality standards.

Pricing depends on seniority and role: Junior developers (2-3 years): $3,500-$5,000/month. Mid-level developers (4-6 years): $4,500-$6,500/month. Senior developers (7+ years): $6,000-$8,000/month. Tech leads/Architects (10+ years): $7,000-$12,000/month. QA engineers: $3,000-$6,000/month. UI/UX designers: $3,500-$7,000/month. DevOps engineers: $5,000-$9,000/month. Example team costs: Startup team (3-5 people): $15K-$25K/month. Product team (6-10 people): $35K-$60K/month. Enterprise team (15+ people): $80K-$150K+/month. All pricing includes overhead, benefits, office space, and infrastructure—no hidden costs.

Our rigorous vetting process includes: Technical Screening (coding tests, system design, architecture discussions). Only top 1% pass our technical bar. Experience Verification (portfolio review, reference checks, GitHub profile analysis). Communication Assessment (English proficiency, clarity of thought, collaboration skills). Cultural Fit (work ethic, adaptability, team dynamics, timezone flexibility). You conduct final interviews to ensure alignment with your specific needs and culture. We also provide 30-day trial period where you can replace team members if expectations aren't met. Our 95%+ retention rate demonstrates the quality of our matching process.

Absolutely! This is a key advantage of dedicated teams. Process: 1) We provide 2-3 candidates per role with resumes, portfolios, and technical assessments. 2) You conduct technical interviews (we can provide interview frameworks if helpful). 3) You can include coding challenges, system design sessions, or take-home assignments. 4) You make final selection decisions. 5) If you're not satisfied with any candidate, we provide additional profiles at no extra cost. You have complete control over who joins your team. Many clients involve their existing tech leads or engineers in the interview process to ensure technical and cultural fit.

Seamless integration is our specialty. We adapt to your setup: Tools & Processes: Teams use your project management tools (Jira, Asana, Linear), communication platforms (Slack, Teams), code repositories (GitHub, GitLab), and CI/CD pipelines. Ceremonies: Teams participate in your daily standups, sprint planning, retrospectives, and demos. Working Hours: Flexible schedules with 4-6 hours of timezone overlap for real-time collaboration. Code Quality: Follow your coding standards, PR review processes, and quality gates. Reporting: You manage teams directly—assign tasks, review work, provide feedback just like in-house staff. We provide a dedicated account manager for administrative support, but day-to-day management is yours.

We maintain 95%+ retention, but have robust contingency plans: Replacement Process: If a team member leaves, we provide replacement within 2 weeks. Knowledge transfer period ensures continuity. No additional recruitment fees. Performance Issues: If performance doesn't meet expectations, we first work with you to identify root causes (unclear requirements, communication gaps, skill mismatch). We provide coaching and support to improve performance. If issues persist after 30 days, we replace the team member at no cost. Notice Period: Team members have 30-day notice periods, giving us time to find replacements and ensure smooth transition. Backup Resources: We maintain bench strength of developers who can step in quickly if needed.

IP protection is built into our engagement from day one: NDAs: All team members sign comprehensive NDAs before project discussions begin. IP Assignment: All work product, code, and deliverables are 100% owned by you. IP assignment clauses in all contracts. No Work for Competitors: Team members cannot work for your competitors during and after engagement. Secure Development: Dedicated secure development environments, encrypted communications, access controls, and audit logging. Compliance: We maintain ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certifications. Regular security audits and penetration testing. Data Protection: GDPR-compliant data handling. Secure data centers with physical and digital security. Legal Framework: Contracts governed by your jurisdiction. Enforceable agreements with remedy clauses.

Yes, flexibility is a core benefit of dedicated teams: Scaling Up: Add new team members within 2-3 weeks. We maintain warm candidates who can onboard quickly. Seamless onboarding with existing team members mentoring new additions. Scaling Down: 30-day notice for team reduction in most contracts. Can reduce during natural breakpoints (end of quarter, project phase completion). Gradual reduction helps with knowledge transfer. Flexible Models: Some clients maintain core team year-round and add specialists for specific phases. Mix of full-time and part-time resources based on needs. We help forecast capacity needs based on roadmap to plan proactively and minimize disruption.

We recommend minimum 12-month engagements for dedicated teams, though we offer flexibility: Why 12 Months? Teams need 2-3 months to fully ramp up on your codebase and domain. ROI improves significantly after 6+ months as team gains deep product knowledge. Longer engagements enable better cultural integration and team stability. Shorter Options: Some clients start with 6-month pilot programs. After 6 months, most clients extend indefinitely as teams become indispensable. Month-to-Month: After initial 12-month period, many contracts convert to month-to-month for flexibility. Average Tenure: Our average client engagement is 2.5+ years. Many clients have had same teams for 4-5 years. Some clients have grown from 3-person teams to 50+ person offshore divisions over time.
