You’re probably here because…

Why teams add our engineers.

You need another developer now, and hiring locally takes months.

An engineer in your stand-up within weeks.

We match an engineer to your stack, they join your tools and they start on your backlog. No recruitment fees.

You have a spike of work but can’t justify a permanent hire.

Monthly, not permanent.

Scale up for the busy months and back down after. Engineers are paid for by the month, with notice agreed up front.

You tried a freelancer and they disappeared.

A team behind every engineer.

You are hiring from an agency that has been running since 2017, not one person. The founders review the work and you can reach them directly.

Your product is live, customers want more, and you have no engineering team.

We become the team.

i-mve has worked with us this way since 2022, growing to 523 companies. We plan, build and ship with the founder, and you set the priorities.

Who you can add

One engineer inside your team, or a team we manage. Each works with AI assistants and reviews what they produce, in the stacks we work in.

Dedicated team

Engineers and a designer who work only on your product. We manage them and own delivery; you set priorities.

How we work with i-mve. See the dedicated team page.

AI-native engineers

Engineers who draft, test and refactor with AI assistants every day and own what they ship, under the AI-tool rules you set.

See the AI-native engineers page.

Software architects

An architect who sets the structure before the team builds on it, or reviews what is already there.

See the architects page.

Full-stack engineers

Angular front ends with Node.js or NestJS behind them: the stack most of our own products run on. React, .NET, Python and others where they fit.

The stack behind i-mve and Sharewear.

Backend engineers

Node.js, NestJS and .NET APIs, integrations and databases, plus Python, Go and Rust where the job calls for them.

Frontend engineers

Angular and React interfaces built from your designs or ours.

UI/UX designer

Screens and prototypes for new features, working with your engineers.

How it works

From first call to engineers working on your product.

  1. Day 1

    A 30-minute call

    Tell us your stack, your process and what the engineer will work on first.

  2. Next

    We propose the people

    One engineer or a small team, matched to your stack and time zone, introduced on a call.

  3. Week 1

    Onboarding

    Slack, your repository and your task board. The team reads the code before changing it, and you tell us which AI tools may see your code.

  4. Ongoing

    Build and report

    Work through the backlog in your order, with updates on Slack twice a week. Rehan checks in with you regularly.

  5. Monthly

    Scale up or down

    Add another engineer, swap roles or step back, with notice agreed up front.

  6. Always

    Your code, your repository

    Everything is committed to your repositories as it is written.

How we price staff augmentation

A monthly rate per engineer, set on a call once we know the role, the stack and the seniority. No recruitment fees.

Dedicated engineerMonthly rateA full-time engineer working on your product, priced per engineer once we know the stack and seniority.
HourlyOn requestFor smaller or irregular pieces of work.
Prefer a fixed project?Fixed quoteA fixed quote for a defined build with an end date.

Included as standard

  • Full-time engineers matched to your stack
  • Team management and code review (dedicated team)
  • Founder oversight and a direct line to us
  • All code committed to your repositories

Not included

  • Your own tools and licences (Jira, GitHub seats, etc.)
  • Graphic design, video and animation

The rate is per engineer per month. Add or remove engineers with the notice we agree at the start. Book a call and we will price the team you describe.

Is this right for you?

We’re a good fit if

  • You need more engineering capacity than you can hire quickly
  • You have a technical lead (staff augmentation) or want us to lead (dedicated team)
  • Your product needs steady work, not a one-off project
  • You would rather pay monthly than recruit permanently

We’re probably not if

  • You have a one-off project with a fixed end (a fixed-quote build suits better)
  • Requests for new features get reported as bugs so they don’t count as scope
  • You mainly need graphic design, video or animation

What I love about Team7 is that they always say: No worries, we can find a solution. This is the mindset of builders, creators, people who do not have fear, the partner you need if you want to excel.
Alfonso G.Founder, Mebag · 🇮🇹 Italy
★★★★★
Working with Mo and his team over the past year has been nothing short of exceptional. I was admittedly sceptical about investing such a large amount, but results exceeded every expectation.
Robert SinclairOwner, i-mve · 🇬🇧 UK
★★★★★
Their responsiveness and willingness to take on our challenging task were impressive.
Lisa RubleLicensed Psychologist, COMPASS for Autism · 🇺🇸 Muncie, Indiana
★★★★★
They are amazing and consistently exceed expectations. They go above and beyond what is asked of them and their communication is top notch, so much so that we joke that they never sleep. The best of the best.

Common questions

Straight answers on cost, hours and quality.

Ask us something else
How much does a dedicated developer cost?

Each engineer has a monthly rate that depends on the role, the stack and the experience you need, so we do not publish a price list. Book a 30-minute call, tell us who you need, and you get the number in writing. There are no recruitment fees, and hourly work is available on request for smaller pieces of work.

What is IT staff augmentation?

You add outside engineers to your own team for as long as you need them. They join your stand-ups, tools and repository, you manage the work, and we handle hiring, payroll and cover. It suits teams that already have a technical lead and need more capacity than they can hire quickly.

What does AI-native mean for the engineers you add?

They use AI coding assistants every day for drafting, tests and refactoring, and they still read, run and own everything they ship. You decide which AI tools may see your code. Our AI-native engineers page covers how we handle quality and security.

What is the difference between staff augmentation and a dedicated team?

With staff augmentation, our engineer joins your team and you manage their work. With a dedicated team, we manage the engineers and own delivery, and you set the priorities. The monthly rate per engineer is the same.

What hours do your engineers work?

We split working hours across the team to overlap with US, UK and Australian clients. We agree the overlap hours for your team before anyone starts.

How do you hire your engineers?

We look at their final-year project and their fundamentals, then give them two months to learn the stack we need. We watch whether they are curious or frustrated when things get hard, and decide from there.

What if it isn’t working out?

Tell Rehan or Nabeel directly. We will talk to the engineer, swap them, or wind down with the notice we agreed.

Who owns the code?

You do. At handover you get the Git repositories and written documentation. There is nothing tying the software back to us, so you can take it to an in-house team whenever you like.

Who will I talk to, and how often?

Rehan, one of our two founders, is your day-to-day contact. You get updates on Slack twice a week and can see the code in your repository at any time. We split working hours between us to cover US, UK and Australian time zones, and we usually reply within an hour, sometimes the next morning.
