Augment your in-house engineering team with the best talent, hand-picked for you. With Eastern Peak’s team extension services, you keep complete control over the extended team: you decide how to organize your resources, plan ahead and keep track of your costs.
We have a long track record of building scalable, efficient development teams for startups and businesses worldwide. With direct access to a large pool of pre-vetted engineers, our IT staff augmentation services help you set up your own extended development team and adjust it to your needs as the project evolves.
IT staff augmentation works when you already run engineering in-house and need more of it, quickly. It is the wrong model when nobody on your side has time to manage the people who join.
Eastern Peak works in three ways. If you are weighing staff augmentation against managed services, the real question is who runs the team.
| Team extension | Managed projects | On-demand services | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who manages the work | Your engineering lead | An Eastern Peak project manager | Eastern Peak, per task |
| Who owns delivery | You | Eastern Peak | Eastern Peak |
| Your involvement | Daily, as with your own staff | Demos, planning and sign-offs | A brief and a review |
| Best for | Adding capacity or skills to a team you already run | Building a product end to end without an in-house team | Design, testing, DevOps or marketing when you need them |
| Scaling | Add or remove people as your roadmap changes | The team is sized to the project | Per request |
Our 250+ engineers cover the roles clients ask for most in software development staff augmentation. You can add one engineer or a whole dedicated development team, and mix seniority levels to fit your budget.
Native iOS and Android, plus cross-platform apps built with Flutter and React Native.
Front ends, APIs, admin panels and the services behind them, for new products and for code you have run for years.
LLM integrations, retrieval over your own data, AI agents and custom models, built into the software you already run.
Manual and automated testing for web, mobile and desktop, working inside your release process.
CI/CD, infrastructure as code, cloud migration and the monitoring that keeps production quiet.
Product designers who work from your design system, or help you build one.
We also provide Salesforce developers, business analysts and project managers. Need a different role? Let us know, and we will find the right specialist in our talent pool.
Some projects need more than extra hands. Our forward deployed engineers work on-site with your team and take a specific business problem from the first conversation to a solution running in production.
They work alongside your people, with time on-site at your office.
They turn loosely defined business needs into working software.
They write production code in your own infrastructure, not in a sandbox.
They stay hands-on until the solution works in production.
A call about the roles, skills and seniority you need, and how your team works day to day.
Candidates from our pre-vetted pool. Everyone has passed our 3-level screening, and we hire 5% of the people we interview.
You interview every candidate yourself and make the final decision on who joins.
New team members get access to your tools, join your standups and work your hours. Most teams start within 2-3 weeks.
Our recruiting team stays with you. Add people, change skills, or replace anyone who is not the right fit.
Bizzabo
Our engineers work as part of Bizzabo’s in-house team. Together they moved the platform from a monolith to microservices, made automated testing and deployment easier, and rebuilt the mobile app. The team started with two engineers and grew to fifteen.

Leaplines
Leaplines needed developers who could go straight into existing code and learn from the in-house team, after a previous vendor could not deliver. In a little over a year the team brought hosting into one AWS setup, refactored the code and strengthened security.
Read the case study“We didn’t have a typical outsourcing structure, by which I would give tasks to Eastern Peak and they’d work on them. The developer was a part of our team, just like any other member.”
“Eastern Peak’s employees integrated seamlessly with the in-house team’s Agile workflow, delivering high-quality work throughout the entire development timeline. They were both trustworthy and dedicated.”
“The best part for me was that I was able to get the guys for the things that I needed, and I was able to make them part of my organization, which is rare in the outsourcing world.”
Every review on our Clutch profile comes from a client Clutch interviewed directly, and the scores below are theirs, not ours.
Our 3-level interview process and recruiting network across Eastern Europe mean we hire only 5% of the candidates we interview. You still interview them yourself.
Our global product managers bring proven project management practices to every engagement. You get a result-oriented team that adapts easily to your internal processes.
The team follows high communication standards, so you have full transparency, just as with your in-house staff. They also adapt to your local hours.
Two minutes on who we are, how we work, and what it is like to build a product with our team.
It works best when you already have a development team that you manage in-house and want to add specific skills or domain expertise that are hard to find locally.
Yes. The team can join your company through staff augmentation, working under your engineering lead, or run as a managed project with an Eastern Peak project manager. Most teams start within 2-3 weeks.
Most teams start within 2-3 weeks of the brief. That includes the shortlist, your interviews and onboarding. Rare skills or large teams can take longer, and we will tell you up front if that is likely.
It depends on the roles, seniority, the rarity of the skills, team size and how long you need the team. Send us the roles you need and we will come back with a cost estimate within one business day.
Every candidate passes our 3-level screening of technical and soft skills before you see them, and we hire only 5% of the people we interview. Then you interview them yourself and make the final call, so nobody joins your team without your approval.
We select engineers for strong communication skills and personality, not only programming skills. If you notice a drop in performance or attitude problems, let us know the first time something feels off, and our project manager will step in and handle it. If that doesn’t help, or you want an immediate replacement, we will replace the engineer with a new candidate. Making sure you are happy with your team is our first priority.
They adapt to your local hours and join your meetings, standups and chat just like your in-house team.
All of our project managers and most of our developers have an advanced level of English.
Yes, for kickoffs and key milestones. Many clients arrange a visit of a week or two at the start so the teams get to know each other. Most of the time, your engineers work remotely from our European engineering hubs under your supervision, with the same tools, procedures and hours as your in-house team. We are happy to put you in touch with clients who work this way.
You do, from the first commit. We sign NDAs before any technical discussion, and IP clauses are written into the contract.
