Resource Augmentation
Resource augmentation adds experienced engineers, QA specialists and DevOps staff to your own team. They work in your tools and follow your process, so you gain capacity without the time and cost of hiring, and you can scale the team up or down as the work changes.
What you get
- Engineers, QA and DevOps matched to the skills your project needs
- People who work in your tools, your repositories and your process
- A short start-up period so they are productive quickly
- Flexibility to add or release people as needs change
- A single point of contact for the arrangement
A good fit when
- A deadline needs more capacity than your team has
- You need a skill your team does not have, for a limited time
- You want to extend the team without a long hiring process

Common questions
How is resource augmentation different from outsourcing a project?
With augmentation, the engineers join your team and you direct their work day to day. With project outsourcing, we take responsibility for delivering a defined result. Many clients use both at different times.
Do augmented engineers use our tools and processes?
Yes. They work in your repositories, ticketing and communication tools, and follow your standards for code review and releases.
