Deep AI engineering, end to end
From retrieval pipelines to production inference, we build the hard parts of scalable production-grade AI systems.
For Engineering Teams
AI Engineering and software development for large engineering units.
Skip the hiring grind and scale your engineering team the moment you need it. We embed senior, pre-vetted engineers into your team, fully aligned with your engineering stack and principles.
Partnering with the world's leading enterprises















We work inside your codebase, your review process, and your definition of done. Senior engineers that embed into your teams within 2-4 weeks.
You don't win the work and then start recruiting. We staff from a team that is ready in 2-4 weeks, and already worked together on multiple engagements.
Healthcare, fintech, media, logistics and e-commerce. More than 40 engagements have put our engineers inside regulated, high traffic environments, where our teams already have proven experience working with consultancies.
Every engagement planned for longer than 6 months opens with a 2-week free trial. This means that you're de-risking your investment and can see the team in action before committing to a longer engagement.
From retrieval pipelines to production inference, we build the hard parts of scalable production-grade AI systems.
We work inside your rituals. Daily standups, sprint planning, demo days. You always know exactly where things stand.
Our engineers work European hours end to end. For EU teams, we're simply there all day, every day.
Four hours of shared time with US teams, enough for standups, pairing, and decisions that can't wait. We offer a full 8-hour overlap in certain cases.
Compliance is built into how we work: data handling, access controls, and processes that hold up in regulated industries.
Our team owns outcomes for scoping, building, shipping, and standing behind what we deliver.
Engagements planned for six months or longer start with a two-week trial. If we're not the right fit, you walk away owing nothing.
Hiring in-house for engagements that are new and you're not sure how long they could last is a real risk. Discover why hiring our teams de-risks your delivery and keeps your margins healthy.

What engineering leaders usually want settled before outside engineers touch the repo. Not here? Ask us directly.
They work inside your setup: your repos, your board, your standups, your review process. You direct the work the same way you direct your own engineers.
You keep control of priorities. We bring senior hands, not a second process for you to manage.
Two to four weeks from an agreed scope to engineers committing in your repos, whether that is one person or a small team.
Most teams get a first pull request inside the opening sprint instead of waiting out an onboarding quarter.
Every engagement planned for six months or longer opens with a two week trial. The engineers work on real tickets in your repos, so you see the output before you commit to anything longer.
If the fit is wrong, you walk away owing nothing and we look for a better match.
Raw working hours at a fixed rate agreed upfront. You do not pay for holidays, sick days, or the gaps between projects, and there are no recruiter fees or benefits stacked on top.
When the work stops, the cost stops. There is nothing left to unwind.
We bring in a replacement from the same team and cover 30 days of knowledge transfer and onboarding free of charge, so your roadmap does not pay for the handover.
Delivery is backed by an SLA in the contract. Covering a departure is our problem to solve, not something your leads absorb.
Everyone we place is a senior engineer with 7 or more years of production experience, already vetted.
We work to your standards: your linters, your CI, your review process, your definition of done.
You own everything produced under the engagement from day one: code, documentation, infrastructure configuration. No licenses, no lock-in.
We hand over with the context written down, and you are left with no headcount to redeploy and no salaries running against work that has finished.
