The engineering work nobody has time for
Bug fixes, upgrades, internal tools, integrations and release testing — in your repo, on your board, at a steady pace, so your core team stays on the roadmap.
- We work in your tracker, your repo
- Your board
- Sprint cadence with a written demo
- 2-week
- Engineers, not an anonymous bench
- Named
What the team actually does
Application maintenance
Bug fixes, dependency upgrades, security patches, performance work and the slow debt paydown that never wins a roadmap argument.
Internal tools
Admin panels, operations dashboards, approval workflows and the small internal apps that a growing company needs and never has time to build.
Integrations
Payment, logistics, CRM, ERP and third-party API integrations — built with retries, idempotency and a monitoring plan, not just a happy path.
QA and release support
Regression suites, release checklists, staging verification and post-release smoke testing on a schedule your team can rely on.
Documentation and handover
Architecture notes, runbooks and README hygiene as part of the definition of done, so the pod is replaceable and the knowledge is not.
Backed by Depra Studios
When a piece of work needs product design, AI engineering or a full zero-to-one build, it moves to the studio team rather than out of the relationship.

Service-level targets
| Metric | Target |
|---|---|
| Sprint commitment met | ≥ 85% |
| Critical bug turnaround | < 48 hours |
| Change failure rate | ≤ 10% |
| Documentation coverage of shipped work | 100% |
Targets, not guarantees. Your current performance is measured in week one and the agreed target is written into your contract.
Questions about this service
If yours is not here, email us. A person answers, usually the same day.
Continuity and cover. A pod has a named lead, a documented handover and a bench behind it, so a resignation or a sick day is not a delivery incident. The documentation requirement is contractual, not aspirational.
That is the common case. The first sprint is a read-only audit: architecture map, dependency and security review, test coverage baseline and a written risk list. You get that document whether or not you continue.

Half an hour to walk through the job, then a written scope with volumes, targets and a price. Yours whether or not we work together.
