What we offer

Vetted engineers who work under your direction

We supply vetted engineers who work inside your team for as long as you need them, while your leads keep day-to-day direction of the work. We handle sourcing, vetting, employment, payroll, equipment and retention from our own secure facility in Cebu Business Park, Philippines, under US management from Nixa, Missouri. Your engineers join your standups, work in your repositories and tools and follow your process. You own all code and IP from day one.

Capacity without the hiring cycle

Staff augmentation adds capacity and keeps control in-house

Staff augmentation closes a skills gap, clears a backlog or adds capacity for a release without adding permanent headcount. The outside firm employs the people and you manage the work. That differs from IT outsourcing, where a provider manages delivery of a whole function, and from a dedicated development team, where the provider assembles a complete standing team around your product. The model flexes in both directions: add a seat when the roadmap grows and step down when it settles.

What you can expect

Everything behind each engineer you add

Sourcing, employment and support are handled, so the only thing left for you is directing the work.

Vetted Talent

Add engineers who passed a vetting process that about 1 in 20 applicants clears, including skills tests and an in-person interview.

Fast Team Start

Go from a signed agreement to a full team working in 2 to 4 weeks.

Employment and Payroll

Add capacity without adding payroll, benefits or HR administration to your own books.

Secure Onsite Facility

Keep work inside a PCI and HIPAA compliant facility in Cebu Business Park, on triple-redundant fiber with full-building backup power.

Retention and Replacement

Replace an engineer who is not the right fit at no additional cost.

Onsite Account Support

Reach an account manager, an operations manager and a site director, all onsite and included with every engagement.

Who it is for

Built for teams that already have technical leadership

Staff augmentation works best when you have an engineering lead or CTO who sets priorities and reviews code, and you want that direction to stay in-house.

CTOs With Growing Backlogs

Your backlog grows faster than you can hire locally, and every open role takes months to fill. Augmented engineers join your standups within weeks and start on the work your leads assign. You clear the queue without adding permanent headcount.

Teams Missing a Skill

A project needs React, PHP, DevOps or QA skills nobody on your team has today. Adding one specialist fills the gap without retraining or a long search. Your team keeps its process and gains the skill it lacked.

Release Crunch Periods

A launch date is fixed and the current team cannot cover the scope in time. Extra engineers add capacity for the release and step down when it ships. With no term contract, you keep the seats only while you need them.

Product Companies Scaling Up

Your roadmap is expanding and you want people who stay on your product for months, not a rotating bench. Augmented engineers learn your codebase and keep that knowledge on your team. You can add seats one at a time as the work grows.

Ecommerce Operators

Online retailers need engineers who understand production commerce systems that run every day. eComia engineers run the technology behind US retailers like Mass Depot, HiFi Soundconnection and VHC Brands. You add people who already work in that environment.

Cost-Conscious US Businesses

A US software developer earns well above $130,000 a year in median salary before benefits and overhead, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. Staff augmentation with eComia saves up to 70% all-in at a flat monthly rate per role. There are no setup, screening or equipment fees, ever.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can augmented engineers start?

Usually within 2 to 4 weeks. We take you from a signed agreement to a full team working in that window, because sourcing and vetting are already done. You review and approve each candidate before they start.

Who owns the code and IP?

You do. All code, credentials and intellectual property are yours from day one, delivered into your own repositories under contractual IP assignment.

Is there a minimum contract term?

No. There is no term contract and the minimum is one seat, so your risk is one seat for one month. We work that way because your success is ours.

How many engineers can I add?

As many as the work needs. Our teams typically range from 2 to 100 people, and you can start with a single seat and add more as the work grows.

Is your facility secure?

Yes. Our operations are PCI and HIPAA compliant, and every engineer works 100% onsite in our Cebu Business Park facility on triple-redundant fiber with full-building backup power.

What is the difference between staff augmentation and IT outsourcing?

With staff augmentation you manage the people and the work, and we employ them. With IT outsourcing you hand us a function or outcome, and we manage delivery and answer for the result. Choose augmentation when you have leadership in place and want control of daily priorities.

Do your engineers work US hours?

Yes. We operate 24/7 for clients, with full coverage of US business hours. Engineers work onsite in our Cebu facility and join your meetings in real time.

What happens if an engineer is not the right fit?

We replace them at no additional cost. Retention and replacement are our job, so a bad match does not become your problem.

How is staff augmentation priced?

Each role has a flat monthly rate, with no setup fees, no screening fees and no equipment fees, ever. With eComia you save up to 70% all-in compared to a comparable US hire.

Who manages the engineers day to day?

You direct the work: priorities, sprint process, code review and acceptance. We handle employment, payroll, equipment and retention, and every client gets an account manager, an operations manager and a site director, all 100% onsite in our Cebu facility.
