.NET + React engineering pod for an Indian software firm scaling its SaaS
A mid-stage Indian B2B SaaS company needed parallel feature capacity without diluting equity or losing engineering control. We assembled an embedded three-person pod working inside their sprint cadence.
Outcome
Three-person embedded pod, daily standup and shared backlog with the client team
Context
The client is a mid-stage Indian B2B SaaS company that had reached product-market fit and faced the usual problem — the product roadmap was outpacing engineering capacity, and the existing six-engineer core team could not ship roadmap items and pay down accumulated tech debt at the same time.
Challenge
Classic outsourcing was off the table — they wanted to keep engineering ownership in-house. Hiring six more full-time engineers on a permanent basis felt like an over-commitment for a twelve-month capacity bump. They needed something between the two: extra hands that worked like an in-house team, but with a different commercial structure.
Approach
We put together a three-person pod — two senior .NET engineers and one senior React engineer — sourced and screened from our existing vetted pool.
The pod operated inside the client's sprint cadence, not alongside it:
- Daily standup with the client's tech lead
- Same Jira backlog, same code review rules, same definition of done
- Pull requests reviewed by the client's senior engineers
- Quarterly retrospectives and capacity reviews jointly
The structural separation was commercial, not engineering. From a delivery standpoint the pod is indistinguishable from the rest of the team.
Outcome
The pod has been with the client since January 2026. Their internal team now spends more of its time on architecture and customer-critical features, while the pod handles parallel feature streams that previously had to wait for the next quarter.
The engagement is reviewed quarterly. The structure makes it easy to scale up or down as the roadmap shifts.
Every candidate is background-checked before they reach you
Vetting is a standard part of every staff-augmentation placement — not an add-on. The same five checks run on every candidate before the client sees their profile.
- 01
Reference checks
Direct conversations with at least two prior managers or team leads at the candidate's most recent employers — covering scope of work, performance and reason for departure.
- 02
Employment history verification
Dates of employment, role and reporting line cross-checked with each prior employer named on the resume. Gaps reconciled with the candidate.
- 03
Identity & right-to-work verification
Government-issued photo identity and right-to-work documentation reviewed and recorded before any client-facing interview.
- 04
Background check
National criminal record check (Indian police verification or jurisdictional equivalent) plus public-record review for adverse findings.
- 05
Education & credential verification
Degrees and any cited professional certifications verified directly with the issuing institutions or certification authorities.
