Dedicated Development Team
A cross-functional team built around your product and codebase.
Tech lead, engineers, QA, and DevOps working exclusively on your product. Long-term ownership of architecture, sprint cadence, and deployment—not one-off deliverables.

Why a dedicated team
One team owns the product end-to-end. Context compounds with every sprint.
Unlike staff augmentation, a dedicated team includes a tech lead who makes architecture decisions and coordinates engineers, QA, and DevOps. Your involvement stays at the product and priority level—typically 4 to 6 hours per week.
Team composition
Every role on the team. One accountable tech lead.
01
Role
Tech Lead
Architecture + decisions
The tech lead owns the architecture, makes technology decisions, conducts all code reviews, and runs sprint planning. They are the single point of technical accountability on your product and the interface between product goals and engineering execution.
Architecture decisionsCode reviewSprint planningTechnical roadmap
02
Role
Engineers
Feature delivery
Senior engineers build features, maintain code quality, and participate in code review. Team size scales with your product complexity and roadmap velocity. Each engineer is matched to your exact technology stack.
Frontend / BackendFull-stackFeature builds
03
Role
QA Engineer
Quality gates
The QA engineer builds and maintains the automated test suite, reviews test coverage, and validates each sprint's output before deployment. Manual testing is eliminated by automated gates, not replaced by manual checklist review.

04
Role
DevOps
Infrastructure + continuous integration/continuous
deployment
The DevOps engineer owns the infrastructure, continuous integration/continuous deployment pipeline, deployment process, and monitoring. Zero-downtime deploys, environment management, and infrastructure as code. Your product ships reliably every sprint.

05
Your role
Product Lead
Goals + priorities
Your involvement is at the product and strategic level. You set goals and priorities. The dedicated team handles all technical execution. Your time investment is typically 4 to 6 hours per week: sprint review, priority setting, and async feedback on key decisions.

B2B / E-commerceDedicated Team Engagement
A B2B promotional products company operating with complex catalogs, customer-specific pricing, and approval-based purchasing workflows required a dedicated team to rebuild their platform on a headless architecture. The engagement combined advanced analytics, custom e-commerce architecture, and deep enterprise resource planning integration to enable scalable growth and operational clarity. The same team that started the engagement understood the system well enough to make every architectural decision that enabled the growth from $14M to $90M.
A project-based model would have reset institutional knowledge at each handoff. A dedicated team compounds context with every sprint. The architecture decisions made in month 4 built on context from month 1. The decisions in month 12 built on everything before. That compounding knowledge is what enabled a platform that could handle the revenue growth it was asked to support.

Pricing summary
Most dedicated teams: $20,000 to $80,000 per month
Fixed monthly rate for the full team composition. 6-month minimum term. Scoped before the engagement starts.
A dedicated development team is a cross-functional group of
engineers, a tech lead, QA, and DevOps assembled specifically
around your product. Unlike staff augmentation where individual
engineers join your existing team, a dedicated team owns the
product end-to-end: architecture decisions, sprint cadence,
code quality, and deployment. The team works exclusively on
your product for the duration of the engagement.
Staff augmentation adds engineers to your existing team who
work inside your processes. A dedicated team replaces the need
for an in-house team, or complements a small founding team, by
taking ownership of the technical execution. The dedicated team
has a tech lead who makes architecture decisions and
coordinates the engineers, QA, and DevOps. Staff augmentation
puts management on you; a dedicated team puts it on us.
Dedicated team pricing is a fixed monthly rate for the entire
team, scoped before the engagement starts. The rate covers the
tech lead, engineers, QA, and DevOps for your agreed team
composition. Most dedicated team engagements fall between
$20,000 and $80,000 per month depending on team size and
seniority. Pricing is fixed for the term and does not change
unless the team composition changes.
Dedicated team engagements have a minimum term of 6 months.
Most engagements run 12 to 24 months. The team is structured
for long-term product ownership, not short-term project
delivery. Shorter projects are better suited to project-based
development or staff augmentation.
Your involvement is at the product and strategic level. You
define goals and priorities. The dedicated team handles all
technical execution: architecture, sprint planning, code
review, QA, deployment, and infrastructure. Your time
investment is typically 4 to 6 hours per week: one sprint
review, one priority session, and async feedback on key
decisions.
