You own the scope. The pod owns the capability.

A dedicated team of senior and mid level engineers takes a workstream off your plate and delivers the outcome. Inside your process, your tools, and your release cycle.

Sized to the work, not to the seat.

A pod is a mix of senior and mid level engineers with one technical lead who is accountable for delivery. Not a seat filled and left to you to manage. We'd rather tell you the right size than the size you asked for.

Clear lines. Nothing left ambiguous.

  • The scope
  • The priorities
  • The roadmap
  • The product decisions
  • Delivery of an agreed outcome
  • Technical approach within your standards
  • Quality gates the team runs itself
  • Documentation that means you are never locked in

Assembled from five capability areas.

A pod is composed from the same team we hire from. The mix depends on the work.

  • AI & Agentic
  • Application
  • Data
  • Platform
  • Security

How it runs day to day.

  • 01

    Your standups, your tooling, your repos

    The pod works inside your process. Not a parallel organisation handing deliverables over a wall.

  • 02

    Meaningful timezone overlap

    We staff with meaningful overlap into your working day, matched to each client rather than fixed by us.

  • 03

    Written weekly delivery notes

    You get a short written note every week on what shipped, what's in progress, what's blocked, and what we're deciding this week.

If the work is a single well defined role you'll keep long term, hire the person.

If you need capacity for six weeks, a pod is too much structure. We'll tell you. There are three ways to engage us, and sometimes the honest answer is a different one.

What people ask us.

  • What is a delivery pod?

    A delivery pod is a dedicated team of senior and mid level engineers that owns a defined workstream and delivers an agreed outcome. You own the scope and priorities; the pod owns the capability, the technical approach and the delivery.

  • How is a pod different from staff augmentation?

    With augmentation you get people and you manage them. With a pod you get a team with its own technical lead that is accountable for delivering an outcome. You direct what gets built; you don't have to direct how.

  • How big is a pod?

    A pod is sized to the work, typically a mix of senior and mid level engineers with one technical lead. We'd rather tell you the right size than the size you asked for.

  • Can a pod work in our timezone?

    Yes. We staff with meaningful overlap into your working day, matched to each client rather than fixed by us.

  • Who owns the code and the IP?

    You do, entirely, from the first commit.

Have a workstream a pod could own?

Tell us about it. We'll scope it honestly, including whether a pod is actually the right answer.
