Dedicated Teams
Add a named engineer to your team without hiring
You have a lead, a backlog and one gap, such as mobile, data, DevOps or QA. Brihat places a named specialist who takes your tickets, works in your repositories and answers to your lead.
Roles you can add
- Backend
services, APIs and the databases behind them.
- Frontend
the screens people use in the browser.
- Mobile
apps for phones and tablets.
- Data
pipelines and the tables your reports read.
- DevOps and site reliability
build pipelines, environments and monitoring.
- QA
test plans and automated checks.
Stack detail for web, Python, AI, Flutter and DevOps roles is on the hire page.
Choosing the person
Send us the role, the stack and the kind of code the person will touch. We shortlist against that brief. You interview the candidates and approve one by name, the same as you would for a hire of your own. How soon the engineer starts is agreed at the start of the engagement.
The first days
- 01You give access to the repository, the ticket board and the build pipeline.
- 02The engineer takes a small ticket and opens a pull request.
- 03Your lead reviews it the way they review anyone's.
- 04The engineer joins your planning and team routines.
- 05Ticket size grows as they learn the codebase.
Who manages whom
The engineer reports to your lead, and no account manager sits in between. You decide the priorities, the definition of done and who reviews the code. For notice or replacement you speak to Brihat. A problem the delivery lead cannot settle goes to an architect, then to the founder.
Contract terms
- Minimum
one month.
- Notice
30 days, with no exit fee.
- Replacement
if the engineer leaves, replacement terms are agreed in the contract.
- Size
the number of specialists is agreed at the start of the engagement.
- Hiring them yourself
the conversion fee is nil after six months and prorated before.
One engineer or a pod
One engineer fits when your team already has a lead and a backlog. If the work needs its own lead and its own reporting, take a dedicated pod. If the need is large and steady, look at an offshore delivery centre.
When the placement ends
Your engineer's work is already in your repositories, so the end of a placement needs no handover from us. Give 30 days' notice and the placement stops. Or move the person onto your payroll under the conversion terms above.
Questions buyers ask
It adds outside engineers to a team you already run. You assign the work and set the process. The vendor employs the people.
The difference is that Brihat employs the engineer, replaces them under terms set in the contract, and lets you move them onto your payroll under set terms.
Yes. They work to your board, your reviewer and your definition of done. Brihat handles employment and the contract.
Yes. After six months there is no conversion fee, and before that it is prorated.

The first call is 45 minutes with an architect, usually the founder. It is free, and we will sign an NDA first if you ask.
