Questions, answered.

Every engineer is reviewed by senior Rails engineers — system design, Hotwire and PostgreSQL fluency, background-job patterns, and test discipline — plus an English and communication check. It is not a generic multi-stack coding quiz.

For a clear request, we typically share a curated shortlist within a few days and arrange first interviews within 7–10 days.

We compute the daily hours your business day intersects each engineer's working day, accounting for both time zones, and show that number on every shortlist card. With US teams it is usually 6–8 hours.

No. Clients see curated, anonymized shortlists of two or three matches per request. A small hand-vetted bench means curation is the product, and it protects the engineers' details until you choose to interview.

Both. Hourly contracts suit project work and trials; dedicated full-time engagements suit owning a product surface over quarters. You can move between them as the work changes.

Approved timesheets roll into a single monthly invoice in USD, with a PDF. We pay the engineer locally in their currency — you never run foreign payroll or open an entity abroad.

Tell us early and we'll re-curate. Because we place senior engineers we've personally vetted, mismatches are rare — but we'd rather fix one than leave you stuck.

Ruby on Rails and its ecosystem — Hotwire (Turbo + Stimulus), PostgreSQL, background processing, and the Rails 8 Solid Queue / Cache / Cable stack. We deliberately do not staff other languages.
