TEAM EXTENSION

Hire Flutter developers
in 48 hours.

Senior Flutter, React Native, and full-stack engineers embedded in your existing team. $45/hr. Daily standups. Direct repo access. No recruitment overhead.

Good for

  • ▸Filling a Flutter or React Native skill gap on your existing team
  • ▸Scale-ups that need more senior Flutter capacity without a months-long hiring cycle
  • ▸Adding capacity to ship a release on schedule
  • ▸Bridging a hiring gap while your full-time search continues
  • ▸Spinning up a new mobile initiative without committing to a full-time hire
  • ▸Senior engineering review of an existing mobile codebase

Stack coverage goes beyond Flutter: the same engineers work daily in Dart, React Native, native Swift and Kotlin where projects demand it, and across the backend in Node.js, TypeScript, Python, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Firebase, and Supabase, deploying to AWS and GCP. If your mobile work spills into the API layer, the same person can follow it there instead of throwing tickets over a wall.

Flutter developers who join your existing team

You already have a product, a codebase and a way of working. Our engineers fit into it rather than asking you to change: they join your standups, your sprint board and your repos, pick up tickets from day two, and report to your tech lead like any other team member.

That's what makes team extension work for scale-ups. You add senior Flutter capacity this week, for exactly as long as the roadmap needs it, and you stop the moment the crunch is over — no headcount, no severance.

How it works

  1. Day 0 — Intro call. 30 minutes. Tell us what you need: stack, scope, timezone, start date.
  2. Day 1 — Match. We propose 1–2 engineers from the team with relevant experience.
  3. Day 2 — Kickoff. Repo access, Slack invite, first standup. They're in.
  4. Weekly. Invoice for hours worked. Pause or scale up at any time.

Expect the first week to look like any good senior onboarding: environment set up on day one, first pull request within the first couple of days, and meaningful ticket velocity by the end of the week. If that's not what you're seeing, you tell us and we fix it — that's what weekly billing is for.

Engagement models

Sprint boost

A release is at risk and you need senior hands for four to eight weeks. The engineer picks up tickets from your board on day two and rolls off cleanly when the release ships — no severance, no awkward goodbye.

Ongoing capacity

A long-running engagement where one or more engineers become a stable part of your roadmap — common for teams whose web product needs a mobile sibling without standing up a separate mobile department.

Codebase rescue & review

Inherited a Flutter app from a previous vendor? We audit the architecture, fix what's dangerous, document what's left, and either hand it back healthy or keep maintaining it at the same hourly rate.

Why extend instead of hire?

Choose team extension when you already manage delivery and need additional engineering capacity. An in-house hire suits a continuing role; an independent contractor can suit a defined assignment. Compare availability, total cost, technical fit and the management your team can provide.

Review the relevant work and responsibilities of the engineers who will join you. Our published experience includes contributions to Amino Move — and the same founder-led quality bar from our delivery process applies: daily syncs, code reviews, and risks flagged early.

Common questions

How are the engineers vetted?

Nobody joins a client team cold. Every engineer has shipped production apps with us, passed technical review by the founder (an engineer himself), and worked inside our delivery process before being placed with a client.

What if the engineer isn't a fit?

Tell us within the first week and we'll swap in a replacement or end the engagement — you only pay for hours actually worked. Billing is weekly precisely so there's no long commitment to regret.

Can a Flutter developer join our existing codebase?

Yes — that's the most common setup. Repo access, Slack invite and the first standup happen on day two, and you should see a first pull request within the first couple of days. If you inherited the app from another vendor, we can review the architecture first.

Who manages the engineer day to day?

You do — they join your standups, your sprint board, and your repos, and report to your tech lead like any other team member. We stay involved in the background for quality and continuity.
