Build engineering teams

Named engineers on your roadmap in week one, with a pilot you can walk away from.

01 · The situation

What this looks like from your desk

You are not buying an hourly rate. You are buying whether these specific people can perform on your specific stack — and nothing in a standard hiring process tells you that before you commit.

The roadmap has dates on it and the team doesn't have the capacity. Hiring takes a quarter you don't have. Agencies send CVs that don't match the stack. Contractors need three weeks of context before they commit a line of code that matters.

So the dates slip quietly, or you hire in a hurry and spend the next year managing the consequence.

The real thing you are pricing is not the rate. It is whether these specific people can perform on your specific stack — and almost nothing in a standard staffing process tells you that before you commit.

    This is you if
  • Your roadmap has dates on it that the current team cannot reach.
  • You have received twelve CVs and done the screening the network was paid to do.
  • A contractor billed three weeks of reading documentation before committing code that mattered.
  • You hired quickly once and spent the following year managing the consequence.
  • Nobody you are speaking to has run the kind of system they are proposing to staff.
02 · What the status quo coststo hire one senior engineer

Three months of search, interview loops and notice periods before a line of code exists — while the dates on the roadmap do not move. The alternative is not a faster search; it is capacity that was assessed before you needed it.

03 · What changes

After the record is shared

01You get named engineers matched to your stack, working to your roadmap, shipping in week one. NDA first, hand-selected proposals second, then a two-week pilot you can end at no cost.
02The vetting happens before you see anyone, which is the part that makes week-one delivery possible at all.
03The performance question is answerable here in a way it usually isn't: the same network staffs EDMA's own engineering, so you can inspect the products it built before signing anything.
04 · The path

How an engagement runs

What happens, in order, with the timeline stated rather than implied.

01Scope the gapOne conversation about the roadmap, the stack and what is actually blocking it.
02Sign the NDABefore proposals, so the conversation can be specific about your architecture.
03Assess the engineersHand-selected proposals matched to your stack. You interview; you choose.
04Run the pilotTwo weeks, risk-free. Long engagement only if the work speaks for itself.
Week 1Scope and NDAOne conversation, then an NDA so proposals can be specific about your architecture.
Week 2Proposals and interviewsHand-selected profiles matched to the stack. You interview and choose.
Week 3–4The pilotTwo weeks of real work on the real roadmap, at no cost if you stop there.
Week 5+EngagementContinue, scale, or convert to full-time on your side. All three are normal outcomes.
The roadmap and the blockerWhat is committed, and which part of it the current team cannot reach.
Your stack, honestlyIncluding the parts you are not proud of. Matching against the real codebase beats matching against the intended one.

07 · Questions

What buyers ask

What does risk-free actually mean?Two weeks of work at no cost to you if you decide not to continue. No notice period, no termination fee.
How fast can someone start?Typically within days of the proposal being accepted, because vetting is already done before you see a profile.
Do they work as contractors or become employees?Either. Some engagements stay as augmented capacity; others convert to full-time hires on your side.
Are you engineers yourselves?Yes, and it is checkable: roughly a hundred engineers from this network build the group's chain, products and marketplaces.
What happens if the engineer isn't working out after the pilot?You stop, at no cost. If you want to continue but with someone else, we replace rather than argue — the vetting failed, not you.
Can they convert to our payroll?Yes. A number of engagements end that way and we don't penalise it — a conversion is a successful outcome, not a lost account.
08 · Where this doesn't apply

When we are the wrong answer

Qualifying out early is cheaper for both sides than discovering it in month three.

You need one junior developer for a short task. The model is built around senior capacity on a live roadmap.

You want the lowest hourly rate available. Vetting costs something, and it shows up in the rate.

You need on-site presence in a specific city. The network is global and works remotely.

You want a fixed-price project delivered to a specification you've already written. This is capacity, not agency delivery.

NEXT STEP

Two weeks costs you nothing.

Tell us what is blocking the roadmap. If we don't have the right people, we will say so rather than send an approximation.
