Engineering process
Four phases, the same for every project
Scope, Build, Harden, Operate. Not because it's a nice diagram, but because skipping one of these is how projects go wrong.
Scope
We turn ambiguity into a written plan before any code gets written.
3-10 days
- A written scope document
- A fixed-price or time-and-materials estimate
- An explicit list of what's out of scope
Build
Weekly working demos against a shared backlog, not a black box until launch.
Varies by scope, reviewed weekly
- A working demo every week
- A shared, visible backlog
- Direct access to the engineer writing the code
Harden
Load testing, security review and edge cases get handled before launch, not after your first incident.
1-3 weeks depending on scope
- A load test report
- A security review checklist
- A documented rollback plan
Operate
Support and iteration after launch, with an agreed response time, not an open-ended promise.
Ongoing, month-to-month
- A monitoring dashboard
- An agreed incident response time
- Monthly iteration based on real usage
Communication
How you actually hear from us
A weekly call
Same time every week. You see a working demo, not a status slide.
A shared channel
Async questions get answered same-day, not routed through a ticket system.
A visible backlog
You can see what's in progress and what's next without asking.
