Hire dedicated developers: a founder-led development team in India

Hire dedicated developers who own the outcome

A dedicated team is for companies that want software built without building an engineering department first. You bring the goals and the priorities; we bring a team that plans the work, writes the code, tests it, deploys it and reports back. Our founder, Yash Soni, leads every dedicated team and is the person you hold responsible.

If you already have a technical lead and want people to join your process instead, staff augmentation is the better fit, at the same rates.

What a dedicated software development team includes

• A team mix you approve, for example one senior and two mid-level engineers
• Planning: we turn your goals into a backlog and agree the priorities with you
• Build, test and deploy, in your repositories and your cloud account
• A demo and a written changelog every week
• Fractional CTO time from the founder, from $5,000/mo, if you also need technical direction

The code is yours from the first commit.

Dedicated development team vs a fixed-price project

A fixed-price project suits a clear first version: you agree the scope, we deliver it, and the engagement ends. A dedicated development team suits work that keeps going: a product with a roadmap, a platform that needs features every month, or a backlog that grows faster than your hiring. You pay for the team's hours rather than a scope, so priorities can change week to week without a change request.

Offshore software development from India

Our team works from India. That is why the rates are lower than a US or UK agency's, and it is also why we work the way we do: written changelogs so nothing depends on a call, and code in your repositories so you can check progress at any time. We adjust our working hours to your time zone.

We work with clients in the US, UK, Germany, Belgium and Australia, and we invoice in USD. If you are comparing offshore development teams, or an offshore development center in India, ask each one who leads the work and who you can reach when something goes wrong. Here, it is the founder.

Dedicated teams we have run for years

Most of our client work runs this way. United Medical, a German healthcare company, has had a monthly team since August 2023. A pharma enterprise customer has kept a team on its workflow SaaS and AWS infrastructure since July 2024. Basira, an education company, has worked with us over several years on four products that are now live. We have also worked in larger teams: ten people on a vehicle auction company's asset platform, four on a fleet-leasing company's car-lease platform.

How a dedicated team starts

1. 1A discovery call: your goals, your current system and what success looks like in three months.
2. 2A written proposal with the team mix, the monthly hours (minimum 80) and the first milestone.
3. 3Engineers start within 1 week, and the first week ends with a plan you have approved.
4. 4Every week: a demo, a written changelog and the next week's priorities.
5. 5The team grows or shrinks with 2 weeks' notice.

What a dedicated team costs

A dedicated team is billed by the hour at the same rates as single engineers: junior $20/hr, mid-level $25 to $30/hr, senior $30+/hr, and $45/hr for DevOps specialist work. For example, one senior and one mid-level engineer at 160 hours a month each starts from $8,800 a month. See pricing.
