Teams
Dedicated Development Teams
A team working only on your product, month after month. The value is not the capacity — it is the accumulated knowledge of your domain that a rotating team never builds.
The short answer
What is dedicated developers?
A dedicated team is a long-term arrangement where the same engineers work continuously on your product, rather than being assigned per project. You get predictable monthly capacity and, more valuably, people who understand your domain, your codebase and the reasoning behind past decisions.
It suits products under continuous development rather than one-off builds. If you need a defined thing built once, project delivery is usually a better fit and costs less. Dedicated teams earn their premium through continuity.
Scope
What we build
Product teams
A standing team owning a product's ongoing development and roadmap delivery.
Extended engineering
A unit operating as part of your engineering organisation, in your process.
Platform teams
Ownership of infrastructure, internal tooling or a shared services layer.
Maintenance teams
Continuous ownership of live systems — support, fixes and incremental improvement.
Agency delivery teams
Standing capacity for agencies with continuous client work.
Offshore development centre
A larger dedicated group operating as your India-based engineering function.
Why teams call us
Business problems this solves
If more than two of these describe your situation, the problem is usually structural rather than cosmetic.
- Knowledge lost every time a project ends and the team disperses
- Re-explaining the same domain context to each new engagement
- A roadmap needing continuous delivery, not a single project
- Hiring that cannot keep pace with the product
- A live system with nobody permanently responsible for it
- Delivery capacity that has to flex with demand
How it works
Our process
- 01
Team design
Composition, seniority mix and size, based on the roadmap rather than a template.
- 02
Selection
Profiles for you to interview. You approve every member of the team.
- 03
Engagement model
Monthly commitment, working hours, reporting, escalation and exit terms in writing.
- 04
Ramp-up
A deliberate onboarding period — nobody is productive in a new domain on week one.
- 05
Steady state
Sprint or continuous delivery with regular demos, reporting and planning.
- 06
Quarterly review
Team composition, velocity and priorities reassessed against where the product is going.
What you get

Features
- The same engineers month to month, not a rotating pool
- Accumulated domain and codebase knowledge
- Predictable monthly cost and capacity
- Direct access to the team, not only to a manager
- Ability to adjust composition at review points
- Documented decisions so knowledge survives any individual
- Signed confidentiality and IP assignment

- Docker
- AWS
- CI/CD
Budget
What drives the cost
We do not publish price ranges, because a number given before we understand the work is not a real one. These are the factors that actually move it.
- Team size and the seniority mix within it
- Length of commitment — longer terms reduce the monthly rate
- Whether QA, design and DevOps sit inside the team
- Time zone overlap required
- Whether we provide delivery management or you run the team
After a discovery conversation we give a fixed scope and a fixed number before any work begins.

Services that go with this
Hire Developers
Dedicated developers and extended teams for startups, agencies and product companies — with the working model, code ownership and handover agreed in writing before anyone starts.
Custom Software Development
Internal platforms, portals, dashboards and workflow tools modelled on how your operation actually runs — not on how packaged software assumes it should.
Cloud & DevOps
Infrastructure, deployment pipelines and monitoring set up so that shipping is routine. If releasing makes your team nervous, that is an engineering problem with a solution.
Website Maintenance
Security updates, dependency hygiene, backups, monitoring and the small changes that keep accumulating. A site is a system that is running, not a project that finished.
Questions
Dedicated Developers — frequently asked
How is a dedicated team different from hiring developers?
Mostly commitment and continuity. Hiring individual developers can be short-term and role-specific. A dedicated team is a standing unit with a monthly commitment, retained domain knowledge and its own internal review culture. See hire developers.
What is the minimum commitment?
Dedicated teams make sense over months, not weeks — ramp-up is real and a short engagement never recovers it. We agree a minimum term at the start, and it is usually measured in quarters.
Can we change the team size?
Yes, at review points and with notice. Scaling up needs lead time for selection and ramp-up; scaling down needs notice so handover is orderly rather than abrupt.
Do we manage the team or do you?
Either. Some clients direct the team through their own product and engineering leads; others want us to provide delivery management. We agree which at the start, because ambiguity here is the most common cause of a poor engagement.
What if we want to bring the work in-house later?
That is a legitimate outcome and we plan for it. Documentation stays current, code stays in your repository, and handover is a defined process rather than a negotiation.
How do you keep the team stable?
We cannot promise nobody ever changes — that would not be honest about how employment works. What we do is keep documentation and architecture decisions current, run code review across the team, and overlap any replacement so knowledge transfers properly.
