STAFF AUGMENTATION

Hire Data Scientists

Turn the data you already hold into decisions you can defend.

notice period, no minimum term

What a data scientist does here

A data scientist finds out what your data actually supports — which is often narrower than what was hoped, and occasionally more interesting. The deliverable is a defensible answer with its uncertainty stated, not a dashboard.

We staff this role where the question matters more than the model: what drives churn, whether a segment is real, which intervention moved the number and which one merely preceded it.

What they are good at

Exploratory analysis and hypothesis framing
Statistical inference and uncertainty quantification
Experiment design, A/B testing and sample sizing
Causal inference where a randomised test is impossible
Cohort, retention and survival analysis
Forecasting and demand modelling
Communicating a result to people who will act on it
Knowing when the data cannot answer the question

What they build

Decision analyses

A specific business question answered with the confidence interval attached, and the assumptions written down.

Experiment frameworks

Test design, power calculation and readout, so results survive scrutiny later.

Forecasts

Demand and capacity models with error bars, backtested against the period you actually care about.

How you can engage them

Dedicated

Full-time on your product, in your standups and your repository. The right shape when the work is continuous and context compounds.

Extended team

Part-time capacity alongside your own engineers, for a specific workstream or a gap you are hiring against.

Project

A defined scope with an agreed outcome and end date. Best where the requirement is clear and unlikely to move.

We do not publish rates, because the honest number depends on seniority, duration and notice. Tell us the budget you are working with and we will tell you what it buys — or say plainly if it does not buy enough.

How it actually starts

Scoping call

48 hours

What you are building, which skills it needs, and whether we are the right answer. Sometimes we are not, and you will hear that.

Profiles

3–5 days

CVs and code samples of the specific people available, not a generic capability deck.

You interview

your process

Technical interview with the actual engineer. Reject anyone you are unsure about — that costs nothing.

Trial period

first 2 weeks

Real work in your repository. If it is wrong, you stop, and there is nothing further to pay.

Onboarded

week 3

Shipping in your process, with a written record of decisions from the first day rather than the last.

Working across time zones

We are in Bangalore. That is an advantage for some of your working day and a constraint for the rest, and we would rather state the number than imply there is no gap:

London

5 hours of overlapping working day

Dubai

8 hours of overlapping working day

Singapore

7 hours of overlapping working day

New York

No natural overlap — async handover before your morning

San Francisco

No natural overlap — async handover before your morning

Sydney

5 hours of overlapping working day

Contract, ownership and exit

You own everything

IP assigns to you from the first commit. Work happens in your repository under your licence.

Two weeks notice

No minimum term past the first month, no exit fee, no penalty clause.

No lock-in by design

Standard tooling, documented decisions, no proprietary layer that makes leaving expensive.

Confidentiality

NDA before the scoping call if you want one, and we will sign yours rather than insisting on ours.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a BI analyst?

A BI analyst tells you what happened; a data scientist tells you why, how confident you should be, and what happens if you change something. Both are useful and they are not substitutes.

What if the answer is inconvenient?

You get it anyway. A analysis that only ever confirms the plan was not worth commissioning.

Who owns the code they write?

You do, from the first commit. Work is done in your repository under your licence, and the contract assigns IP to you outright. We keep no rights over what we build for you and no dependency that makes leaving expensive.

What if it is not working out?

Two weeks written notice, no penalty, no minimum term beyond the first month. An engagement that needs a contract to hold it together has already failed — we would rather you could leave easily and chose not to.
