Software/ Product Development

Full builds handled by a product-centric squad that can stay on to run it or transfer it to your team—your call.

Who This Is For?

  • Solo or seed-stage founders who need a fractional CTO + squad to build and run their app.
  • Enterprise product or innovation teams launching a new line while core staff stay focused on the core business.
  • Organizations tackling deep-tech problems (robotic fleets, computer-vision pipelines, real-time data backbones) that typical dev shops avoid.
  • Teams requiring full US-time-zone overlap but without the Bay-Area burn rate.

Common Pitfalls We Help You Avoid

  • Vision-execution gap between big ideas and tickets engineers can ship.
  • Patchwork freelancers that churn and leave ownership holes.
  • Pilot code that can't scale—missing tests, CI/CD, or infra-as-code.
  • Lost learning because product and engineering operate in silos.

How We Work (Build-Operate-Transfer or Grow)

Discovery Sprint

1-2 weeks to map risks, interview stakeholders, and spike the one hard thing.

Dedicated Pod

Product Lead, Eng Lead, and 2-5 full-stack engineers (designer/SRE optional).

Agile Delivery

Two-week sprints, weekly demos, and a living RFC log keep everyone aligned.

Operate & Improve

Solo founders: we stay on as your ongoing product & engineering team. Enterprises: we run prod for 30 days before transfer or extension.

Transfer or Extend

For enterprises we pair, document, and hire with you—or keep the squad month-to-month if velocity matters more than head-count.

Confidentiality & IP

  • NDA before access - all code lives in your repos; you own 100 % of IP from commit #1.
  • Client-controlled hardware - most teams ship locked-down laptops we image & secure.
  • MFA + SOC-2 tooling - single-tenant repos, no subcontractors.

Engagement Snapshot

  • Duration 3-9 months typical (solo founders roll monthly after launch).
  • Squad Size 3-6 FTEs (Product Lead, Eng Lead, engineers; designer/SRE optional).
  • Overlap 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Central (Chile = US-Eastern + 1 hr DST).
  • Cadence Weekly demo + exec brief; Slack & GitHub daily.
  • Deliverables Live product, infra-as-code, docs, runbooks; ongoing ops or hand-off pack.

Why We're Effective

  • Operated by two-time CTOs—our squads have shipped 600-robot fleet platforms, 20 MM ft² CV analytics, Twilio/Stripe-driven marketplaces, and private Airbnb-style booking systems.
  • University pipeline: Clark's professor role taps top CS grads and alumni first.
  • In-person Santiago culture accelerates knowledge sharing and code quality.
  • Quality you can see: peer review, automated tests, and observability hooks on every PR.

Pricing

Typically we operate a flat monthly squad rate—no hourly surprises, but we can adjust for special projects/requests.
