Senior engineer embedded in your team.
Embedded · Retainer · Senior Engineer
Need a senior engineer embedded in your team — without the hiring overhead, 3-month notice periods, or long-term commitment? Get a battle-tested engineer inside your sprints, your Slack, and your code-base within 48 hours. You scale up when you need to, scale down when you don't.
Transparency First
Covered in our proposal
All engineering, development, integration, testing, and deployment. This is what you pay us for — nothing more.
Your infrastructure costs
Third-party APIs, cloud hosting, and SaaS subscriptions. Licensed directly by you — you own them completely, independent of us.
The examples below are typical for this service type. Your actual requirements depend on your specific project — we'll map every cost out together before any work begins.
Existing Infrastructure
We work inside your existing stack — cloud, hosting, and database costs stay exactly as they are. No new infrastructure is added unless your project requires it.
Communication Tools
Slack, Discord, or Microsoft Teams for daily standups and async communication. All offer free tiers that work well for most engineering teams.
Project Management
Linear, Jira, or Notion to track sprints and tasks. We adapt to whatever tool your team already uses — no migration needed.
GitHub Teams
Required if your repos are private and you need to grant us collaborator access with advanced permissions.
Figma
Design collaboration and handoff. Required if your team has active UI/UX work running alongside engineering. Viewers are always free.
GitHub Copilot
AI coding assistant that improves delivery velocity. Optional — we're fully productive without it, but it accelerates boilerplate and documentation tasks.
Loom
Async video walkthroughs for code reviews, feature demos, and bug reproductions. Eliminates many back-and-forth messages for distributed teams.
1Password Teams / Bitwarden
Secure credential sharing for shared staging environments, API keys, and third-party service accounts across the team.
replaces Jira (expensive and slow for small teams)
Free for up to 3 members. Fast, modern, and used by top engineering teams. We're happy to help migrate your board if you're currently on Jira.
replaces Slack paid plan
No message history limits on free tier, free voice/video channels, and structured threads. Many engineering teams prefer it over Slack.
replaces Confluence (expensive Atlassian add-on)
Documentation, wikis, and meeting notes — all free for small teams. Pairs naturally with Linear or GitHub Issues.
replaces 1Password Teams ($4/user/month)
Open-source password manager with a fully functional free tier. Self-hostable for teams that want full control over credential storage.
replaces Zoom paid plan
Unlimited 60-minute calls free on personal Google accounts. Sufficient for daily standups and sprint reviews without a paid subscription.
✦ These are common examples for this service type — not an exhaustive list. Every project is different and your actual third-party requirements will be scoped and documented in detail during our discovery session.
Our Commitment to Your Budget
We treat your running costs like our own. Before recommending any paid service, we evaluate every free and open-source alternative available. We set up free tiers, help you claim startup credits (AWS Activate, GCP for Startups, Stripe partner deals), and only suggest a paid plan when your product genuinely needs it. You will always know every cost before you spend a rupee — no surprises, no vendor lock-in you didn't choose.
