Engagement model
A dedicated team,
not a queue of contractors.
You get a standing squad of EU engineers who know crypto rails and financial rules. Same people every sprint. One named lead. A cadence your board can plan around. The team works inside your tools and your process, so nothing gets lost at the handover.
- EU-based engineers
- MiCA-ready architecture
- GDPR-compliant delivery
Roster
The roles inside the squad
A digital-asset product needs more than coders. You pick the mix. Every role below can be full-time, part-time or left out.
-
01
Tech lead
One named lead owns the architecture and the release. They answer to you, not to a sales desk.
- Architecture calls
- Code review gate
- Weekly demo
-
02
Backend engineers
Ledgers, matching, wallet paths and APIs. The people who have shipped this stack before.
- Ledger and API work
- Event-sourced services
- Load and failure tests
-
03
Front-end engineers
Trading views, dashboards and back-office tools. Built on the same API your clients call.
- Web and mobile clients
- Admin consoles
- Design-system upkeep
-
04
QA engineer
Money bugs must not reach production. Tests run on every merge and cover the failure paths too.
- Automated suites
- Reconciliation checks
- Release sign-off
-
05
DevOps engineer
Pipelines, secrets, alerts and backups. Your team can ship on a Friday without fear.
- CI/CD pipelines
- Key handling
- On-call runbooks
-
06
Compliance-aware analyst
Rules turn into tickets here. MiCA, PSD2 and GDPR needs land in the backlog, not in a last-minute panic.
- Control mapping
- Evidence trail
- Auditor hand-off
Cadence
How the first quarter runs
A team is only useful when it is predictable. Here is the rhythm from kick-off to a steady release cycle.
Prefer a fixed price and a fixed date? Compare it with a fixed-scope product build.
- 01
Team shaping
Week 1
We agree the roles, the seniority mix and the lead. You interview every engineer first.
- 02
Onboarding
Weeks 1–2
Access, repos, threat model and a shared backlog. The team ships something small in week two.
- 03
Steady cadence
Ongoing
Two-week sprints, a demo each Friday, and a written report you can forward to your board.
- 04
Scale or hand over
On notice
Add roles as the roadmap grows. Or wind down and hand the code to your in-house team.
Control
You keep the steering wheel
Outsourcing fails when visibility drops. So the squad works in the open. Your backlog, your repo, your definition of done.
Work flows from your backlog into a sprint, then review, release and a written report.
Models
When a dedicated team is the right buy
A standing squad suits long roadmaps. Shorter or narrower needs are cheaper another way.
-
Dedicated team
Best for a roadmap that runs for quarters, not weeks. You get a stable squad.
-
Staff augmentation
Best when you own the plan and just need senior depth inside your own team.
-
Fixed-scope build
Best when the scope is settled and you want one price and one date.
-
CTO advisory
Best before you commit. Architecture, hiring and risk guidance first.
Squads ship across the whole stack: exchange builds, payment gateways and core fintech tools.
Questions
Before you brief us
The five things buyers ask first. Ask the rest on the call.
How fast can a team start?
Most squads start within two to four weeks. Timing depends on the role mix and your access process.
Do we interview the engineers?
Yes. You meet every candidate and can decline any of them. Nobody joins your squad without your sign-off.
Who owns the code and the IP?
You do. We build client-owned systems. There is no white-label lock-in and no licence fee at the end.
Can the team shrink again?
Yes. Roles roll off on notice. We hand over docs, runbooks and a live walkthrough before anyone leaves.
Where do the engineers sit?
In the EU. That keeps GDPR-aware data handling simple and puts the team inside your working hours.
