One senior-led team. From first build to long-term partner.
From validation build to five-year platform: integrations, e-commerce, agentic workflows, and the ongoing tech team to operate them. Same Brisbane senior engineers, same production-grade standard, at any scope.
Who we work with
Four buyer archetypes. One senior team.
We define our clients by investment posture. You want professional software outcomes without hiring and managing your own dev team.
Operators
Mid-sized business. Tech outcomes without scaling headcount.
Core archetype
Founders
Validated idea, capital to invest. Production-grade from week one.
Built to graduate
Product teams
New product line inside an existing company. Startup speed, enterprise safety.
Intrapreneurs
SaaS migrators
Off Bubble / Webflow / hacked-together Rails. Live-to-live migration.
Off no-code debt
Senior-led delivery. Structured for long-term engagements. The same engineers stay on the project from day one forward.
Service offerings
What you can actually order.
Three tiers, twelve deliverables. Named clearly. Every one comes with the same senior team and the same parallel specialist review.
Custom Software Development
The umbrella offering. Production-grade Rails applications built to outlive any one sprint. New products, internal tools, line-of-business platforms.
Systems Integration
Connect the systems you already run: Xero, Stripe, Shopify, Salesforce, bespoke ERPs. Data flows and event streams with no more spreadsheet middleware.
Workflow Automation
Eliminate manual work. Order-to-invoice, compliance onboarding, inventory reconciliation. Wherever staff are re-keying data across tools.
Adjacent capabilities
Legacy Modernisation
Lift-and-shift, migrations, no-downtime cutovers for aging internal systems.
No-Code Migration
Bubble, Webflow, Airtable into production Rails. Live-to-live, users intact.
Team Extension
Experienced engineers embedded alongside your in-house developers, led by a 2RK senior.
Cloud Infrastructure
AWS, DevOps, observability. Production-ready, cost-aware, documented.
Specialist engagements
Security Assessment
Vulnerability scanning, architecture review, compliance readiness.
Marketing Foundations
Technical SEO, content strategy, analytics, for operators who ship.
Rapid Validation Build
Six-week production-grade proof-of-concept. Not a prototype that rewrites.
How we deliver
How six people ship like twenty.
Parallel specialist review on every deliverable. Proprietary internal tooling. Humans make every technical decision.
One-week review cycles compressed into hours. On every deliverable we run parallel specialist review: architecture, security, QA, UX, SEO, performance. The kind of review that takes a larger agency a week, compressed to hours. That’s how a six-person team ships with the breadth and scrutiny of a firm five times its size.
Humans make every technical decision. Our internal tooling accelerates production: code scaffolding, review summaries, regression generation. It does not write your architecture, does not sign off a security review, and does not talk to your stakeholders. Seniority stays in the seats.
01 / Discovery
Discovery call
20 minutes with a senior engineer who’d actually be on your project. We tell you if we can help, and if not, who can.
02 / Scope
Scope & plan
Outcome-first SOW. First 30 days, what could go wrong, real numbers.
03 / Build
Build & deliver
Sprint cadence. Parallel review. Working software, not slides.
04 / Operate
Ongoing operation
Retained for the long arc. New scope without restarting the relationship.
Engagement models
Four ways we work. Pick the one that fits.
We don’t do fixed-price race-to-the-bottom. We don’t do equity-for-work. We do paid senior delivery, structured four ways depending on what you need: from a one-off build to ongoing technical leadership.
By project
A defined build or rescue with a clear start and end. Scoped honestly up front, priced to the scope, delivered by senior engineers. Best when you know what you want built and need it done properly.
Duration Fixed
Billing Per scope
On-demand hours
Request a specific number of senior engineering hours when you need them. No minimum retainer, no fixed blocks. Hours drawn down against real work: bug fixes, investigations, small improvements, or spike work on an existing system.
Duration As needed
Billing Hourly
Team extension
Experienced engineers embedded alongside your in-house developers, with a 2RK senior directing the work. Your standups, your backlog, our seniority on the call.
Duration Ongoing
Billing Per-engineer
Engineering Multiplier
A fractional CTO-style engagement for teams of one or two developers who need to ship faster and avoid expensive architecture mistakes. Senior code review, architecture guidance, and technical mentorship, so your team grows in capability before you grow in headcount.
Duration Ongoing
Billing Monthly
