Dedicated developer teams

Consider a Viennese software company running a platform for gyms. Its in-house team numbers six, next year's roadmap would need twelve, and experienced back-end engineers are nowhere to be hired. Two obvious routes exist: outsource a project that then gets built without product knowledge, or spend months recruiting. A dedicated team is a third option. Its members work solely on your product, join your meetings and commit to your repository, while remaining employed by Apply. We handle selection, equipment, training and cover; you set goals and priorities. For this to work well you need clear ground rules, and we agree them with you before the first working day.

Everything this covers

What makes up a dedicated team with us, and how you can tell whether it is working.

Settle the details with an engineer

Team make-up

Back end in PHP, Python, Java or .NET, front end in React, Vue or Angular, mobile in Flutter or native code, plus QA and, if wanted, a business analyst or scrum master.

Onboarding plan

The first fortnight follows a concrete plan: access, an architecture tour, an introduction to the domain and small first tickets reviewed by your people.

Fitting your process

The team adopts your sprints, definition of done and review rules. We only introduce new practices if you ask for them.

Visible output

Time logged per ticket, shared retrospectives and a monthly report on throughput, open items and anything unusual.

Continuity

Holidays and sick leave are covered; changes in the line-up are flagged early and accompanied by a handover so knowledge is not lost.

Security

Managed devices with encrypted drives, access only with a second factor and only to what is needed. If you prefer, we work exclusively inside your virtual desktop environment.

Rights to the work

Confidentiality undertakings for everyone involved and a contractual transfer of the rights of use in the code to your company.

Our working method

For mainstream technologies, the gap between first call and first merged pull request is usually a matter of weeks.

01

Defining needs

Roles, seniority, technologies, expected duration and how the team slots into your organisation.

02

Selection

We propose profiles, you hold the interviews and decide.

03

Onboarding

Two weeks by the plan, then a joint review of whether pace and quality are right.

04

Working together

A monthly conversation about size and composition, with adjustments made within the agreed notice periods.

An external team does not replace product ownership. If nobody on your side grooms the backlog and clarifies requirements, even the best team will build the wrong thing. Check beforehand who takes that role. If nobody can, a project with a fixed deliverable is the better choice.

Frequently asked questions

Our model is designed as a service: Apply organises and answers for its own specialists, and you set the functional goals. Where the line to worker placement under the Austrian Temporary Employment Act lies depends on how the arrangement works in practice. Have your legal adviser review both contract and day-to-day reality.

We recommend at least three months, since onboarding does not pay off otherwise. After that the agreed notice periods apply and the team can be scaled down step by step.

Short absences are covered by a stand-in. If someone leaves the team, we announce it, introduce a replacement and plan an overlapping handover. Wiki documentation keeps knowledge from resting with individuals.

By role, seniority and volume, invoiced monthly for hours actually worked. We prepare a concrete quote after the first conversation.

German or English, depending on the team and your preference. Code, commit messages and technical docs are normally in English, while talks with business users happen in German.
