60 hours from “we need a senior dev” to the dev on your first task.
Founder-led staff augmentation for small/mid companies.
- 0h Brief received, role & stack confirmed done
- 0.5h Discovery call - 28 min done
- 7h Internal matching, 3 candidates flagged done
- 48h Shortlist of 2 sent, CTO-vetted done
- 55h Contract & clearance running in parallel in progress
- 60h Day 1 standup, first task picked up soon
How the 60 hours happen
Six steps. Each one is a contract, not a marketing claim - this is the actual sequence we run on every engagement.
What the last 24 months look like in numbers
Our services
Staff Augmentation
We handle recruiting and payroll.
Management is on your side.
Best for: companies launching a new product, a new module, or a separate domain that needs end-to-end ownership.
Engagement: 1-3 developers, 1 month minimum, 13+ months on average, Full-time or part-time (min 20h/week).
- Pre-vetted senior developers in 60 hours
- Direct integration with your team (your tools, your processes, your reviews)
- Founder-level escalation on day 1
- Replacement under our 89% first-match commitment
- All HR, payroll, equipment, contracts on our side
- AI tooling built into our developers’ workflow: they ship faster, you don’t pay extra
Relevant cases: AI Voice Agent – ElevenLabs + Voximplant
Dedicated Team
A complete unit: developers, plus a tech lead from our side, that takes a defined scope and runs with it. Weekly demos to you. Architecture decisions in coordination with your CTO.
Best for: mid-size or enterprise companies with a clear roadmap but no in-house team to execute it whether you're rebuilding a platform, infrastructure migration, or launching something from scratch and need a team that owns delivery, not just writes code.
Engagement: 3-7 people, 12+ months on average, full-time.
- Full team built around your scope (engineering + tech lead)
- Alexander (our CTO) involved in architecture and weekly check-ins
- Direct founder-level access for strategic decisions
- Onboarding into our, or your side, you set the goals, we deliver
- Same replacement terms as Staff Augmentation
- Transparent integration into client’s workflow
Relevant cases: AWS DevOps

Key Advantages
Every engagement is run by Founders.
You talk to them, not to an account manager.
You’re not hiring a developer with a sales rep attached.
You’re hiring a developer with a CTO and a product mind on speed dial.
For the same hourly rate.
We don’t dump resumes on your desk.
Pre-filtered Senior Engineers against your codebase, your team’s seniority, and your team’s day-to-day process.
Average acceptance rate after the first match: 97%. Industry benchmark: 22–28%.
In 23 engagements over the last 24 months, we’ve replaced 1 developer.
When a replacement is needed, escalation goes directly to a Founder, not to a support queue.
Average replacement time when it does happen:
2 days, zero client downtime.
A vague ticket isn’t a reason to stop it’s where our Engineers start. When there’s uncertainty around the problem, our engineers dig in themselves: research the context, test assumptions, and keep moving before anyone has all the answers. You feel something’s broken. They go figure out what and why.
Cases with receipts
A case without numbers is a story. Three projects, each backed by a recorded engineer interview and a technical write-up.
SAP Data Engineer - client reports from hours to minutes
AI Voice Agent - ElevenLabs + VoxImplant in 12 weeks
AWS DevOps - one platform, three entities, zero data loss
About AI
We don’t sell “AI Development” as a separate service, because using AI is now a baseline for any modern software engineer. How we actually use AI in our work:
As a draft, not a final.
Our developers use Claude, Cursor, and Copilot daily for boilerplate, refactoring, and first-pass solutions. Every line that goes to production is reviewed by a human. AI accelerates, doesn’t replace, senior judgment.
For exploration and validation.
Our devs use LLMs for quick library comparisons, edge case analysis, and architecture brainstorming. The final decision stays with the engineer.
For productivity gains.
3-5x faster shipping on routine tasks, validated across our recent projects.
AI integration capabilities.
For projects that require AI integration (LLM agents, Voice AI (ElevenLabs + Voximplant), RAG, vector DBs), we have production cases and capabilities available.
If you prefer no-AI workflow.
That’s also on the table. Some teams require it for compliance or IP reasons. We adapt our workflow to your security standards.

Team
Advisor
Philanthropist
Business orchestrator
13 years in B2B sales: telecom, fintech, IT support, software development. The last 5 years in staff augmentation specifically.
He’s the product mind behind “CTO and Product Lead on every project” not just a title, a function. He runs the first call with every client. He owns the match.
Every candidate goes through both him and Alexander before the profile reaches you: Alexander vets the tech stack, Aleksey covers the product context, scope, and cultural fit.
When something goes sideways once your dev is already on the team you reach him directly.
If the 60-hour clock is ticking, he’s the one watching it.
Developer,
Master’s Degree in Psychology,
Economist, Entrepreneur.
Every candidate goes through him before it reaches you. The 95.65% first-match success rate – 1 replacement in 23 engagements over 24 months – is partly his achievement: he vets on stack, architecture thinking, and how the person handles uncertainty.
One thing he specifically screens for: do they wait for a perfect ticket, or do they start digging. The second type is the only type we place.
On every engagement: available for technical blockers within 2 working hours.
On dedicated team projects: in the architecture calls, not just cc’d on them.
