Hire AI experts who ship in production, not just demos.
Senior, AI-fluent engineers, certified across Anthropic, Google Cloud and Microsoft and vetted through real delivery, integrated into your team in 1 to 2 weeks. Not commodity staff augmentation.
What makes these AI experts different?
Not a CV pile from a body shop. Certified, practitioner, agent-first engineers, proven on real work.
Vetted through delivery
Proven on real shipped projects with evals and production discipline, not interviews alone. The bench and the projects show the work.
AI-fluent by default
They build AI systems and build everything else with AI: agentic coding, evaluation discipline, guardrails and cost control as standard.
Certified across your stack
Anthropic, Google Cloud and Microsoft, so the expert is fluent on the platform you already run, not learning it on your time.
Flexible, low lock-in
Short or long term, scale up or down. No upfront recruitment fees on the augmentation model, and you interview before anyone joins.
Fully supported
HR, legal and accounting handled by us, with replacement covered if the fit is wrong. You get the engineer; we carry the overhead.
What is an AI-Fluent Senior Pod?
A ready-built, senior team embedded in yours, not a stack of CVs to sift. The vetting is done and the people have shipped together.
When a pod beats a single hire
- You need to move on a roadmap now, not in six months
- The work spans AI, back-end and front-end at once
- You want senior judgement, not just extra hands
- You would rather not carry the hiring and HR overhead
What a pod brings
- Senior, AI-fluent engineers, certified across your stack
- Production discipline: evals, guardrails, monitoring
- Integrated in 1 to 2 weeks, supported end to end
How do you want to engage?
Three models, the same vetted people. Pick the one that fits, switch later if it changes.
