Why founders use this
This is for long-running products, not a two-week landing page. The typical shape is one or more developers, sometimes a designer or QA, overlapping UK hours enough that a question in Slack does not wait until tomorrow.
If you need a one-off build instead, start with our services.
- Speed
- You skip a hiring loop that can run for months for every role.
- Control
- Priorities stay with you. We do not take the product hostage.
- Continuity
- The same people stay on the repo. That is the point compared with a rotating agency bench.
How staffing works
Four steps, no hiring theatre. The engineers work directly with you and take your priorities. We hire them, handle the contracts, and look after performance and training as the team grows.
- 1
The brief30 minutes
Inquire
A call to decide if a dedicated team is the right shape. What you need shipped, how many people, which stack, and when you want them in Slack.
- What the team will own day to day
- UK hours overlap
- Stack and repo access
- Budget range and start date
- Whether you need a lead or individual engineers

The people2 to 4 weeks
Recruit
We source against that brief, not a generic bench. You meet the shortlist. We will not fill a seat with whoever is free this week.
- Sourcing against the written brief
- Technical screen on our side
- You interview the shortlist
- Contracts and a start date
- First-week onboarding plan

In the repoFirst two weeks
Kickoff
They join your Slack and repo and take direction from you. We sort out access, hours and onboarding so they are useful from the first week.
- Access, tooling and hours
- Intro to your product and codebase
- Your priorities from day one
- A contact at Boolet for anything people-related
- A check-in in week two

Scale
Add or drop people as the product changes. We keep checking on performance and arrange training when it helps. You do not restart the hiring loop from scratch.
- Add a specialist when you are blocked
- Reduce the team when it is quiet
- Shift scope without a new round of paperwork
- Keep the same people on the code
- Performance reviews and training
- Stay after launch if you want continuity
One monthly price per person, HR included
We quote it after a call, once we know the stack and the level of experience you need. Usually less than hiring in-house in London once you add recruiter fees, equipment and the time to manage juniors. It is not cheap offshore. It is your own team, without running your own hiring cycle.
What we take off your plate
- Sourcing and a technical screen
- Contracts and holidays handled by us
- Performance check-ins, and training when it is needed
- Agreed overlap with UK hours
- Add or reduce people as the product changes
Where the team sits
Our talent hubs are in London, Colombo and Accra. Offshore or nearshore is fine if the overlap works, and we will not hide where someone sits. If you need people on site, say so on the call.

Dedicated team questions
- Where are the engineers based?
- A mix of the UK and our talent hubs (including Colombo and Accra). You can ask for UK hours overlap. We will not hide where someone sits.
- Do I manage the people day to day?
- Yes. The engineers work directly with you, take priorities from you and sit in your Slack and repo. We handle hiring, contracts and holidays, keep an eye on performance and arrange training when it is needed.
- How fast can a team start?
- A single engineer can often start within a few weeks if the brief is clear. A full squad takes longer because we will not fill seats with whoever is free.
- Is this cheaper than hiring in-house in London?
- Usually, once you add recruiter fees, equipment, and the time to manage juniors. It is not “cheap offshore”. It is your own team, started without a hiring cycle that runs for months, with the hiring and HR side handled by us.

Tell us the product, the stack and how many people you think you need. We will say if that is realistic.
