We're a handful of senior engineers, available for hire.
Senior nearshore and offshore engineers based across Brazil, the UK, and Europe. We've worked together for years, mostly on Go, AI, Node.js, React, full-stack, and CI/CD.
We're not an agency, and we're not after full-time jobs. Just a small group taking on contract work together.
Between us, we've worked at
What we do - What we build
Most of us split our time between backend systems, AI work, and the kind of full-stack glue that holds product teams together. Below is what comes up most often.
- Golang & backend. High-throughput services, microservices, and distributed systems. Several of us spend most of our time here.
- AI & LLM integration. Integrating LLMs into existing products — chat features, summarization, classification, structured extraction. We're builders, not AI researchers; we wire models into pipelines that ship.
- Node.js & React. APIs, full-stack web apps, real-time systems, and the TypeScript that holds it all together.
- Cloud & CI/CD. AWS, Terraform/CDK, deploy pipelines, observability — making sure what we build actually ships and stays up.
Where we tend to ship.
Pick a tab — these are the areas the group has the most reps in.
Golang backend
High-throughput services, microservices, distributed systems.
- Building a Go service that handles real production load — concurrency, careful memory use, and the boring observability work that keeps it running on a Sunday night.
- Breaking a monolith into a handful of services that actually make sense — not microservices for the sake of it, just where the team boundaries already exist.
AI & LLM integration
Wiring LLMs into products. Pipelines, integrations, real features.
- Adding an LLM-powered feature to an existing product — chat, summarization, classification, structured extraction — and making it reliable enough that you don't have to babysit it.
- Building the pipelines and integrations around the model: prompt management, queues, retries, cost monitoring, and the unglamorous plumbing that decides whether the feature lasts past launch week.
Node.js & TypeScript
APIs, real-time systems, server-side rendering.
- A Node API that talks to half a dozen third-party services without becoming a tangle — clear boundaries, real types, tests where they matter.
- Real-time features (chat, presence, collaborative editing) that hold up when more than ten people use them at once.
React & Next.js
Full-stack web apps, design-system work, performance.
- Next.js apps where the server / client boundary is thought through, not just whatever the tutorial happened to do.
- Picking apart a slow React app and making it fast — usually less glamorous than people expect, more about render counts and bundle splits than clever hooks.
Cloud & CI/CD
AWS, Terraform/CDK, deploy pipelines, observability.
- AWS setups that don't fall apart when someone leaves — Terraform or CDK, modular, with the boring runbook actually written down.
- Deploy pipelines that catch problems before production and roll back without a panic when they don't. Logs, traces, alerts that you'll actually look at.
Data & event streaming
Kafka, Postgres, DynamoDB, Cassandra, IoT/MQTT.
- Picking the right data store for the job (and pushing back when a NoSQL was clearly the wrong call) — Postgres, DynamoDB, Cassandra/ScyllaDB depending on the shape of the load.
- Kafka and MQTT pipelines for real-time and IoT — backpressure, retries, dead letters, the unglamorous things that decide whether the system holds up.

Why us - What a small group gets you that an agency can't.
We're not an agency, and that's the point. Here's what changes when you hire the people who actually do the work.
- You talk to the engineer. The person on the intro call is the one writing your code. No account manager, no profiles shuffled around, no bench.
- We've already worked together. The coordination an agency spends months building, we have from years of shipping side by side. We know who's good at what.
- No middleman markup. You're paying for engineers — not a sales team, a bench, and a management layer stacked on top.
- We'll tell you no. If a deadline's unrealistic or a feature's the wrong call, you hear it early. And we're builders, not AI researchers — we wire LLMs into products that ship.
- One contract, one to most of us. Start with a single engineer and scale to a small team without onboarding a new vendor every time the work grows.
- Time zones that actually overlap. Nearshore from Brazil for the US, offshore-friendly from the UK and Europe. Real overlap, not an overnight handoff.
How working with us goes
No discovery phase, no slide deck, no procurement maze. Three steps from the first call to shipping.
- 01
We chat
A 20-minute intro call with an actual engineer — not a salesperson. We figure out the work, the stack, and whether we're the right fit.
- 02
We match
We suggest one or more of us who fit your stack and time zone. You talk to them directly — no account manager in the middle.
- 03
We start
Whoever's joining slots into your tools and cadence. Monthly by default, easy to scale up or wind down.
Frequently asked questions
Anything else? Book an intro call and ask.
How many of you are there?
A small group. We're keeping the exact number off the site on purpose — happy to walk through who's around on a call.
What stack do you work in?
Golang, Node.js, TypeScript, AI/LLMs, React, Next.js, AWS, Terraform/CDK, Serverless, Kafka, MQTT/IoT, Postgres, DynamoDB, Cassandra/ScyllaDB.
How does hiring us work?
Book a 20-minute intro call. We figure out what you need, who fits your time zone (nearshore from Brazil if you're in the US, offshore-friendly from the UK and Europe), and the shape of the engagement. You'll be talking to an engineer, not a salesperson.
Can we hire you as full-time employees?
No — we work as contractors. Project-based or monthly engagements, scaled up or down as the work changes, but not full-time employment.
How you can hire us.
Pricing depends on who, for how long, and the work. We'll scope it on the call.
