Embedded engineering7 roles available
Our engineers,
inside your team.
Dedicated engineers and designers working in your stack, your standups, and your repository. Capacity without a hiring cycle, under our review discipline. Each allocation is covered by the same governance as a full programme: a named engagement lead, weekly written reporting, and senior review on every change.
What you are actually buying
A named engineer
and a second reviewer.
You get a specific engineer, with a name you can put on a standup invite, and a review process that comes with them.
A named engagement lead accountable end to end
Weekly written reporting and a defined escalation path
Formal change control and senior review on every change
An engineer starts inside a week of the brief, subject to availability.
The author, and a second reader before merge. Our standard, in your repository.
Our engineers build and run the products we own.
With a written handover, so nothing depends on us staying.
Roles available
Seven roles.
One standard.
Embed one engineer or a pod of several. A backend engineer and a designer together often move a roadmap further than two of either.
Frontend engineering
Interface work that holds up under real data. Component structure, state boundaries, accessibility, and the empty and error states most teams postpone.
Backend engineering
Data models, service boundaries, and API contracts. Migrations written to run twice without damage, and queries reviewed against production shapes.
Full-stack engineering
One engineer carrying a feature from schema to screen. Best when your roadmap is wide and the handoff cost between specialists is what is slowing you down.
Mobile engineering
Release trains, store review cycles, offline behaviour and device fragmentation. Aurelia is in beta on Google Play, and we handle its releases ourselves.
AI and machine learning
Grounded assistants, extraction pipelines and evaluation harnesses. Cost and latency budgets are set for each call path before rollout.
DevOps and platform
Reproducible environments, pipelines a non-author can run, observability configured before launch, and a restore path someone has actually tested.
UI and UX design
Interaction structure, design tokens and specifications engineers can build from without guessing.
How onboarding works
Four steps
to a productive engineer.
The sequence is fixed because the failure mode is predictable. Engineers dropped into a codebase without reading it first produce work that has to be undone in month two.
Brief and match
Week 0
You describe the stack, the sprint cadence, and the gap. We name the specific engineer we would put on it and share what they last worked on. If we do not have the right person free, we say so instead of substituting a nearest match.
- Named engineer
- Allocation start date
- Written scope of the gap
Access and read
Days 1–3
Repository, environment, documentation, and whichever channel your team actually argues in. The engineer reads before writing and returns a short note on what looks fragile, what is undocumented, and what they would not touch yet.
- Access checklist
- First-read note
- Local environment running
First increment
Week 1–2
A small, real change taken all the way through your review process and into production. The point is to test the pipeline end to end while the stakes are low.
- Merged change
- Review loop verified
- Deploy path walked
Steady state
Ongoing
Full sprint load under your process, with our internal review sitting on top of yours. One monthly note covering what shipped, what slipped, and what we think you should fix next.
- Sprint participation
- Second-engineer review
- Monthly written report
What it costs
One rate,
per engineer, per month.
The rate depends on role, seniority, and how much of the engineer's month you hold. We state the number in our first reply to your brief. Everything below is the structure around it.
- Unit
- Monthly allocation, per engineer
One rate per engineer per month for an agreed share of their time.
- Minimum term
- 3 months
The first weeks go on learning your codebase. A shorter term would end before that time pays off.
- Notice
- 30 days, either side
Enough time for a handover that leaves your team able to continue the work.
- Recruitment fee
- None
There is no placement fee, no conversion fee, and no charge if you later hire someone directly instead.
- Overheads
- Carried by us
Equipment, leave, insurance and internal review time are included in the allocation.
- Working hours
- IST, with agreed overlap
A fixed overlap window with your team is written into the engagement, including standup time.
The handover is included in the price
Architecture notes, decision records and runbooks live in your repository from week one. The final month includes walkthrough sessions with whoever inherits the work, so your team can carry on without us.
- Documentation written in your repository
- Decision records naming the option we rejected
- Walkthrough sessions with your engineers before exit
- No transition fee and no lock-in terms
The standard that travels
We run the software
we recommend.
Three products are ours: Aurelia in beta, Voyazio and AxleOne in development. We run their releases and infrastructure ourselves. The operating standard below comes from that work, and an embedded engineer brings it into your repository.
Aurelia
Your network, with a memory.
Relationship intelligence · B2B SaaS
Voyazio
The backbone of travel business.
Travel infrastructure · Vertical SaaS
AxleOne
Powering the backbone of Bharat.
Logistics infrastructure · Fintech
The operating standard
Reviewed
No change reaches production without review by a second engineer. The rule is the same for our own products.
Reproducible
Environments defined as code. Any engineer can rebuild the stack from an empty account.
Observable
Logging, error reporting, and alerting configured before launch rather than after an incident.
Documented
Architecture notes, decision records and runbooks are delivered as part of the contract.
Accessible
Semantic markup, keyboard paths, contrast ratios, and reduced-motion support treated as requirements.
Recoverable
Backups are verified by restoring them on a schedule.
What we will not do
The four refusals.
We state these before the contract is signed. If any of them is a dealbreaker, we are the wrong supplier, and it is better for both of us to find that out now.
Volume staffing
We will not put ten profiles in front of you and ask you to pick from CVs. If you need headcount at volume, another vendor will suit you better, and we will tell you so.
Unreviewed code
No change our engineer writes reaches your main branch without a second engineer reading it. If your process has no review step, ours travels with the engineer. This is not negotiable, including under deadline pressure.
Silent substitution
We will not pull an engineer off your work mid-sprint and drop a replacement in. If someone has to change, it happens at a sprint boundary with an overlap period and a written handover.
Knowledge held hostage
Everything the engineer learns is documented in your repository. When the engagement ends, your team can continue without a transition contract.

Tell us the gap and the sprint you are behind on
Send the stack, the role you need and the date you need them by. We reply with who is available, what they last built and the monthly rate. Sometimes the better answer is to hire directly, and we will say so.
