The engineer you
need. Not the search

Your team has a gap. Maybe it's a senior React dev, a Rust specialist, or a backend engineer who knows PostgreSQL inside out. We drop them into your sprint — ready to ship on day one.

Senior engineers, 5+ years average
Placed in your team within days
No recruiting fees, no HR overhead

Your team is one hire away from shipping faster.

But hiring takes months. Recruiting fees eat budget. And by the time someone starts, the roadmap has shifted again.

Your senior engineer quit and the remaining team cannot cover the load.
You need a React Native developer but your local market has none available.
The project needs a GraphQL expert for three months, not a permanent hire.
Your CTO wants to try a new tech stack but nobody on the team has used it.
You have budget for one more engineer but HR says the pipeline is dry.
Your last contractor left mid-project and the code they wrote is a black box.
You need someone who can mentor junior devs while shipping real features.
Your sprint velocity dropped because two people are on leave at the same time.

Staff augmentation skips the hiring funnel entirely. You get a vetted engineer who already knows the stack, already writes clean code, and starts contributing in your first sprint. No recruiting fees. No three-month notice period.

Three things that change immediately.

Not a body in a seat. A real contributor who ships.

01

The exact skill you're missing.

Need a senior React developer? A PostgreSQL performance specialist? A Rust engineer for your backend rewrite? We match someone who has done this exact work before. Not a generalist who will learn on your dime.

"We got everything we asked for including a stretch goal."

— Scott Wilson, Head of Product, AEI Music

02

Productive from the first sprint.

No two-week onboarding. No "let me read the docs." Our engineers pull the repo, read the architecture, and ship their first PR within days. They use your tools, follow your conventions, and write code your team can maintain.

"I was impressed with their level of motivation, which I found to be unparalleled in the outsourcing world."

— Vladimir Cvejanovic, StockStudio

03

Flexible engagement, no lock-in.

Three months for a specific project? Six months to cover parental leave? Ongoing to fill a permanent gap? You decide the duration. Scale up when the roadmap demands it, scale down when it does not. No minimum commitment.

"Extending essential functions to Antagosoft has allowed us to take on more internal parallel projects."

How we place the right engineer.

From first call to first commit in under a week.

01Skill Gap Assessment
02Engineer Matching
03Integration & Access
04Ongoing Support

We start with a 30-minute call to understand the gap: what stack, what seniority, what timeline. Then we match an engineer from our bench — someone who has shipped similar work before. They get access to your repos, your tools, and your calendar. Within days, they are in your standups and shipping code. If the fit is not right, we replace them at no cost. We also bring in designers or QA engineers when your team needs them.

"We love the new dashboard; it looks amazing."

— Head of News Company

When staff augmentation might not be the right fit:

  • You need a full team to own a product end-to-end.
    A single augmented engineer works within your team. For a full product team, check our dedicated teams service.
  • You want someone to lead architecture decisions.
    Augmented engineers execute within your architecture. If you need technical leadership, consider product strategy alongside augmentation.
  • You need a one-off project built from scratch.
    Staff augmentation works best when you already have a team and a codebase. For greenfield projects, see our web apps or mobile apps services.

Engineers who shipped. Not just filled seats.

Companies that brought our engineers in to fill gaps and keep shipping.

Healthcare & Wellness

ML engineers augmented a fitness AI app team.

GeniusFit needed engineers with computer vision and on-device ML expertise to build real-time pose estimation. Our augmented engineers brought the model training, on-device inference pipeline, and mobile integration that the in-house team did not have.

Food / AI

Full-stack engineers augmented a sustainable food startup.

EcoEats needed senior engineers to build their AI chatbot, catalog ingestion, and ordering system. Our augmented developers joined their small team, bringing the full-stack expertise needed to ship a working product in months, not years.

Logistics & Transport

Mobile engineers augmented a smart parking platform team.

Smart Parking needed React Native engineers to build their driver-facing mobile app. Our augmented mobile developers joined their team, shipping the parking finder, real-time spot tracking, and payment integration — while the in-house team focused on the backend and IoT systems.

Why augment with us?

Senior engineers, not juniors in disguise.

Every engineer we place has 5+ years of real-world experience. They have shipped production code, debugged gnarly issues, and mentored junior developers. You get someone who contributes from day one.

Matched to your stack, not just available.

We do not send you whoever is on the bench. We match engineers who have worked with your specific stack — React, Next.js, Node.js, Python, Rust, PostgreSQL, React Native. The right skill, not just the right resume.

Replace at no cost if the fit is wrong.

If an engineer is not working out — wrong skill level, bad culture fit, communication issues — we replace them. No questions, no notice period, no cost to you.

Quick answers.

How fast can you place an engineer?

Usually within a week of the first call. We have engineers on our bench who are ready to start. No recruiting lag, no three-month notice period.

What is the minimum engagement?

One month. Most engagements run 3-6 months, but we do not lock you into long-term contracts. You pay for the time you need.

Do your engineers work in our time zone?

We are based in Ukraine (EET) and have worked with teams across US, UK, and APAC time zones. Our engineers overlap with your core hours and adapt to your schedule.

Who manages the augmented engineer?

You do. They report to your tech lead, attend your standups, and follow your process. We handle payroll, HR, and any performance issues behind the scenes.
