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.
Named people,
not a queue.
Most staffing arrangements sell you availability. This one sells you a specific engineer, with a name you can put on a standup invite and a review discipline that arrives 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 have carried on-call for products we own.
With a written handover, so nothing depends on us staying.
Seven roles.
One standard.
Embed one engineer or a small pod. Mixed pods are common — a backend engineer and a designer 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. We ship Aurelia on Google Play, so this is not theory.
Applied AI and ML
Grounded assistants, extraction pipelines, and evaluation harnesses. Cost and latency budgets set per call path before rollout rather than after the invoice.
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. Design that ships, not decks that get admired.
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, not to look busy in the first sprint.
- 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
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 the first reply to a brief rather than after three calls. 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. Not hourly, not per ticket, not per story point.
- Minimum term
- 3 months
Anything shorter is spent on comprehension. You would be paying for the ramp and leaving before the return.
- 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 sit inside the allocation rather than arriving as extras.
- Working hours
- IST, with agreed overlap
A fixed overlap window with your team is written into the engagement, including standup time.
The handover is part of the price, not a separate contract
Architecture notes, decision records, and runbooks live in your repository from week one. The final month includes walkthrough sessions with whoever inherits the work. If our leaving would hurt you, we built the wrong thing.
- Documentation written in your repository, not ours
- Decision records naming the option we rejected
- Walkthrough sessions with your engineers before exit
- No transition fee and no lock-in clause
We run the software
we recommend.
Three products are ours. We run their releases, their infrastructure, and the consequence of every shortcut taken in them. That is where the operating standard below came from, and it is what an embedded engineer brings 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
Reviewed
No change reaches production without a second engineer reading it. This applies to our own ventures identically.
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 handed over as deliverables, not favours.
Accessible
Semantic markup, keyboard paths, contrast ratios, and reduced-motion support treated as requirements.
Recoverable
Backups verified by restoring them. A backup nobody has restored is a rumour.
The four refusals.
Stated before the contract rather than discovered during it. If any of these is a dealbreaker for you, we are the wrong supplier and both of us should find that out now.
Volume staffing
We are not a body shop. We will not put ten profiles in front of you and let you pick from résumés. If the requirement is headcount rather than engineering, another vendor is a better fit and we will say 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, not ours. When the engagement ends, your team can continue without a transition contract.
Read the rest
before you commit.
Embedded engineering is one of three models. If your problem is a bounded build or an architecture call, a different shape will serve you better.
Compare all three engagement models
Project delivery, embedded engineering, and technology leadership side by side, including commercial shape and who leads.
The five engineering practices
What our engineers are actually good at, mapped to the registered specification rather than a keyword list.
The ventures we operate
Aurelia, Voyazio, and AxleOne. The products that set the standard our embedded engineers carry into your repository.
Statutory and compliance
Legal entity, LLPIN, GSTIN, and recognitions — the checks your procurement team will ask for.
Tell us the gap and the sprint you are behind on
Send the stack, the role you need, and the date it hurts by. We reply with who is available, what they last built, and the monthly rate — including when the honest answer is that you should hire directly instead.
