Service

Team
Extension

Senior engineers who join your team and work as if they were always there. Same tools, same standups, same standards — just more capacity and expertise exactly when you need it.

What you get

Senior engineers,
not capacity units.

Vetted before they arrive

Every candidate goes through a rigorous technical assessment and culture-fit interview. You meet them before they start — and you approve the match.

Embedded, not outsourced

They join your Slack, push to your repo, attend your retros. There's no "Edgeware process" layered on top of yours — they adapt to how you work.

Aligned incentives

Engineers are rewarded for long-term relationships, not placement volume. They care about the product you're building, not the hours on a timesheet.

Timezone overlap

We work with your hours. Whether you're in New York, San Francisco, or London — we schedule for real collaboration, not just async handoffs.

Rapid onboarding

Most engineers are productive in their first sprint. We handle the ramp-up scaffolding so you don't lose two weeks to setup and orientation.

Flexible scale

Start with one engineer, grow to a squad. Reduce back down when the sprint is done. No long-term headcount obligations or HR overhead.

Process

From brief to
first commit — fast.

I

Discovery call

We learn your stack, your team structure, and the skills gap you're trying to fill. Usually 30 minutes.

II

Candidate shortlist

Within 3–5 days we send you 2–3 matched profiles. You interview, you decide.

III

Contract & onboarding

Simple MSA, no lock-in. Your new engineer is set up in your tooling the same week.

IV

Delivering in sprint 1

No six-week ramp. Most engineers are shipping meaningful work within the first sprint.

Engineer at work
"We needed someone who could own the backend architecture — not someone we'd need to manage. Edgeware sent us exactly that person."

Most of our clients stop thinking of extended team members as external within the first month. The goal is always that the seam becomes invisible.

Leadership

CTO-level direction,
without the full-time hire.

Some companies need senior technical leadership before they're ready for a full-time executive. Our Fractional CTO service puts experienced technology leadership in your corner — for as many hours as you actually need.

Our CTOs work hands-on with modern AI models, APIs, and tooling. We help you build with AI where it genuinely adds value — not just where it's trendy.

Common questions

What clients usually ask first.

How quickly can you start?
We typically have a shortlist ready within 3–5 business days of your brief. Once you select a candidate, onboarding takes 3–5 more days. Most clients have their engineer in a sprint within two weeks of the first call.
What if the engineer isn't the right fit?
We have a structured replacement guarantee. If within the first 30 days you feel the match isn't right, we replace immediately at no cost. This has happened twice in eight years — but the policy matters.
How does billing work?
Monthly retainer based on the hourly rate agreed upfront. No hidden fees. Transparent time logging. You scale up or down with 30 days notice.
Who owns the IP?
You do. Full IP assignment is standard in our MSA. The code your extended team writes is yours, completely and unconditionally.
