STAFF AUGMENTATION
Hire Mobile App Developers
iOS and Android apps that survive review, offline, and the next OS release.
notice period, no minimum term
What a mobile developer does here
A mobile developer ships to a platform you do not control: a review process, a fragmented device population, a network that disappears in a lift, and an OS that changes annually whether or not you are ready.
We staff both cross-platform and native depending on what the app actually does. A content and forms app rarely justifies two native codebases; something leaning on camera, background processing or platform SDKs frequently does. That call gets made on your requirements, not on our preference.
What they are good at
- Cross-platform delivery with a shared codebase
- Native modules where the platform API demands it
- Offline-first data and conflict resolution
- Push notifications and background processing
- App Store and Play Store submission, review and staged rollout
- Deep linking, in-app purchase and permissions handling
- Performance on low-end devices, not just the latest flagship
- Crash reporting and release monitoring
What they build
Customer apps
Accounts, payments, notifications and offline behaviour that does not lose the user's work.
Field and operations apps
Built for intermittent connectivity, where sync correctness matters more than animation.
Companion apps
A mobile surface onto a platform that already exists, sharing its API rather than forking its logic.
The stack
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We do not publish rates, because the honest number depends on seniority, duration and notice.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
React Native, Flutter or native?
Cross-platform for most content, commerce and forms applications — one codebase, two stores. Native where you lean hard on platform SDKs, background execution or sustained graphics performance. We recommend on the requirements and explain the trade-off rather than defaulting.
Do you handle store submission?
Yes, including the review rejections, which are routine rather than exceptional. Signing, provisioning and staged rollout are part of the work.
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.
