Retained engineering
Predictable monthly capacity for the changes, fixes, and small features that always come up — booked against the team that knows the codebase.
Practice
04 Retainer
Training & support
Software does not stop needing attention after launch. We stay involved through retainer, run the systems with you, and hand them over cleanly when it is time. The same engineers who built it answer the pager.
- Hourly or flat-fee billing
- 14-day payment terms
- Three-month notice on open-ended retainers (per AGB)
In practice
What we actually build. Concrete deliverables we have shipped — not categories we could imagine shipping.
-
01 -
02 On-call coverage
Pager rotations, escalation runbooks, and post-incident write-ups — the unglamorous parts. Available as a retainer, not a panicked phone call.
-
03 Workshops & team enablement
Hands-on sessions on the systems we ship — Docker, the codebase, the deploy pipeline — so your team is not blocked when we are not in the room.
-
04 System handover
Documentation, pairing, and a calendar — so we can step out cleanly when the time comes, and you are not left holding a black box.
-
05 Audits & advisory
Code reviews, architecture reviews, second opinions on hiring and technical decisions — for codebases we did not write.
