Your roadmap. A team to move it forward.

Hire dedicated developers for your product team

Add engineers who work alongside your team, in your codebase and delivery process. For CTOs, founders, and engineering leaders who need more capacity, UData handles staffing and employment administration while you direct the product work.

Start with the capacity you need

Dedicated developers or a dedicated development team

A missing skill and a multi-role workstream need different setups. We define the right shape with you, then confirm the people and availability for that engagement.

A specific role

Dedicated developers

Add engineering capacity where your team needs it. An individual developer works alongside your engineers on the backlog, codebase, and priorities you already own.

  • Fill a defined skill or capacity gap
  • Keep day-to-day direction with your technical lead
  • Agree responsibilities and allocation for the role

A coordinated group

A dedicated development team

Bring together complementary roles for an ongoing product workstream. We shape a dedicated software development team around the work and agree how it connects with your existing team.

  • Define the skills needed across the workstream
  • Set clear technical leadership and reporting lines
  • Keep product priorities and acceptance with you

From requirements to collaboration

How our IT staff augmentation services work

A clear role, a considered match, and an agreed way of working together.

  1. Define the need

    Share your roadmap, stack, skill gaps, and existing team structure. We agree the roles, experience, allocation, and collaboration requirements to look for.

  2. Discuss candidates

    Review relevant experience and the proposed fit for your team. We confirm candidate availability, evaluation steps, and possible start dates for your specific request.

  3. Prepare to join

    Agree commercial terms, access, contacts, and the first work items. We coordinate staffing administration while your team provides product and codebase context.

  4. Work & review

    Engineers join the agreed delivery rhythm. Your lead directs the work, and we stay involved in staffing questions, feedback, and changes to the engagement.

How engineers join your delivery process

Effective IT staff augmentation starts with clear ownership. Your team leads product delivery; UData supports the people and administration behind the engagement.

Published project experience

Relevant engineering experience

Ongoing product work means understanding the systems behind it. Retail Shake is an example of UData’s engineering work on a data-intensive platform.

Engagement scope and cost drivers

Whether you hire a dedicated development team or an individual developer, pricing follows the people, allocation, and responsibilities agreed for your product. We prepare commercial terms around those requirements.

Bring your stack, upcoming work, current team structure, and preferred collaboration schedule. Together, we can define the roles and discuss the budget.

Discuss your team needs

Team composition
The number of roles and how engineering coordination is organized.
Duration
The expected engagement length and how your needs may evolve.

Choose who owns delivery

Staff augmentation or a managed development project?

Start with the responsibility you want to keep. Adding engineers to your process and asking a partner to manage a defined project are different engagements.

Hiring questions

Who manages the developers day to day?

For staff augmentation, your technical or product lead sets priorities, assigns work, and accepts delivery. Engineers work in your agreed tools and process. UData handles staffing and employment administration. For a multi-role team, we agree technical leadership and coordination responsibilities explicitly before the engagement starts.

What should we prepare for onboarding?

Start with your product goals, stack, existing team structure, and a clear first set of tasks. Name a technical contact and prepare the repository, development environment, documentation, and communication access required for the role. We agree the onboarding sequence and any missing information together.

Can the developers work with our time zone?

Share your team’s working hours, meeting schedule, and the overlap you need. We discuss those requirements when evaluating the fit and agree working hours and communication expectations for the engagement. The arrangement depends on the people and allocation confirmed for your team.

What happens if a developer leaves or is not the right fit?

Raise the concern with your UData contact so we can review the situation and discuss a practical next step. Continuity, replacement arrangements, knowledge transfer, and any applicable terms are agreed in the engagement. We confirm the options and timing for the specific role rather than promising an automatic replacement date.

Can we change the team size or allocation?

Yes, you can discuss changes as your roadmap evolves. We review the new roles or allocation, availability, cost, and handover needs with you. Any notice periods, start dates, and revised commercial terms are confirmed before a change takes effect.

How soon can we hire dedicated developers?

Timing depends on the skills you need, candidate availability, your evaluation process, and onboarding readiness. After reviewing your requirements, we discuss suitable profiles and confirm realistic next steps and start dates. Availability is checked for your request.
