How we build a team.
No staffing roulette. We build teams that fit the problem, not the org chart.
Why team composition decides everything.
Most IT projects don't fail because of technology. They fail because of team composition.
A senior architect solving the wrong problem is more expensive than no architect at all.
We don't assemble teams from a resource pool. We analyze the problem and select the people who have solved exactly that problem before.
That means: Smaller teams. Faster decisions. Less coordination. More results.
Every team has a Technical Lead who owns the architecture and speaks directly with the client. No telephone game through project managers.
We sell capabilities, not roles.
When a client needs a cloud architect, we ask first: For what exactly? For a migration?
For a greenfield platform? For securing an existing architecture?
Each of these tasks requires a different person. We don't match on job titles, we match on the specific problem.
This works because we know every consultant personally. We know which projects they've done, which technologies they've mastered, and how they work in teams.
We don't put consultants on projects that don't challenge them. And we don't put consultants on projects that overwhelm them.
The result: Teams that are productive from day one.
Every team has a Technical Lead.
No project without technical leadership. The Technical Lead owns the architecture decisions, reviews the code, and is the primary contact for the client.
Usually that's Jannik Frisch, our CTO. On complex projects, he's there from day one and remains available as an advisor even when the team works independently.
Small teams, big impact.
We start projects with 2-4 people, not 12. Small teams make faster decisions, have less coordination overhead, and deliver more per person.
When a project grows, we scale deliberately. But we always start small, prove the value,
and then expand.
We replace ourselves.
The best team is one that makes itself unnecessary. From the start, we build knowledge at the client. Documentation, pair programming, architecture decision records.
When we leave, there's no black hole. Instead, a team at the client that can independently evolve the platform.
What clients notice.
Faster start
No weeks of onboarding. Our teams know the technologies and can deliver from day one.
Less friction
Small teams with clear leadership don't need escalation processes. Problems are solved where they arise.
No vendor lock-in
We document everything. We train your team. When we leave, the system belongs to you, not us.
We build teams that deliver. Not teams that look busy.
