Scale Your Backend Fast With Forward Deployed Engineers

Get backend engineers embedded in your team via staff augmentation. We deploy Node.js, Python, and DevOps specialists to handle your data pipelines.

What Does a Forward Deployed Engineer Do For Your Backend?

We embed an engineer (or a tiny pod) inside your repos, CI/CD, cloud, and observability to design and implement solutions that cut incidents, reduce MTTR, and raise deploy frequency.

It’s the same forward deployed pattern popularized by Palantir: engineers work directly with customers on production outcomes, not slideware. This forward-deployed approach focuses on the intersection of engineering and business impact.

The service is designed for teams facing integration backlogs or slow releases — startup or enterprise. If you’re operating at the forefront of a fast market, a forward deployed pod is a an execution accelerator for your roadmap.
