Work with your engineer
before you decide

The engineer you work with during the free trial is the engineer who can continue working with you afterwards. The trial gives you a week of real development work together, so you can evaluate their technical capability, communication and understanding of your requirements before deciding whether to move forward.

How the 1-week free trial works

01

Tell us what you need

Talk us through your software, current challenges and the type of development support you need. We'll identify a suitable area of work for the trial.

02

Meet your engineer

We'll match you with an experienced engineer based on your requirements. You'll speak directly with the engineer before the trial begins.

03

Work together for one week

Your engineer works with you on agreed development tasks using the same communication and delivery approach you would experience if you continued working together.

04

Decide whether to continue

Review the work, communication and overall fit at the end of the week. If you're happy, you can continue working with the engineer. If not, there's no obligation to proceed.

What can we work on during the trial?

The trial is designed around a clearly defined piece of real work rather than a demonstration or hypothetical exercise.

Depending on your needs, this could include:

A small feature or enhancement
A bug or technical issue
An integration task
A proof of concept
A defined item from your existing backlog

We'll agree on a realistic scope before the trial begins so both sides know what we're aiming to achieve during the week.
