Not a body shop

What changes when engineers do the vetting.

Most agencies sell hours from a CV database. Here is the same placement, point by point.

  • The body shop:

    CVs matched on keywords.

    A recruiter screens for stack names and never sees the work.

    Bespoke IT:

    Vetted by engineers.

    The people who build our own products review every profile we put forward.

  • The body shop:

    A margin on every hour.

    Often through a chain of subcontractors you never see.

    Bespoke IT:

    One contract, no agency layer.

    You deal with us, and we answer for the engineer we place.

  • The body shop:

    A miss means starting over.

    A new search and a new onboarding, and you pay for both.

    Bespoke IT:

    We bring in the next engineer.

    If the fit isn't right, say so. The replacement terms are in the commercials below.

  • The body shop:

    Their process, their hours.

    Another ticket system, and a status call to translate it.

    Bespoke IT:

    Your tools, your rituals.

    Your repo and your stand-ups, during Düsseldorf business hours.

What helps us match

  • Stack and tools

    Languages, frameworks, cloud, and anything unusual in your setup.

  • Seniority and team

    Who they would report to, and who they would work beside.

  • Start and length

    When they should start, and for how long. Engagements run 3 months or more.

Your industry

Engineers for the problem your team is solving.

Pick your industry. This is the problem we usually hear first, and the engineer who joins to help.

Healthcare and clinics

The problem

The front desk spends the morning on reminder calls and rebookings. Patient records sit in one system, invoices in another, and nobody sees which patients have quietly stopped coming back.

Who we place

Senior engineers who join your product team and build within the rules that health data brings.

Usually connects to

Tell us who you need

Every patient, every site, one view.

Professional services

The problem

Senior people spend their evenings on time sheets, engagement letters and status reports. Knowledge lives in inboxes, so every new case starts from a blank page.

Who we place

Engineers who join your internal tools team and keep to the confidentiality your clients expect.

Usually connects to

Tell us who you need

The firm's memory, finally searchable.

Manufacturing

The problem

Orders arrive as PDFs and emails and get typed into SAP by hand. Planning runs on a spreadsheet that one person understands.

Who we place

Engineers who work inside an SAP landscape and the integration layer around it.

Usually connects to

Tell us who you need

Orders that reach SAP without a keyboard.

Retail and e-commerce

The problem

Customer service answers the same twenty questions all day. Returns are processed by hand, and by Friday the shop, the stock and the books disagree.

Who we place

Engineers who join your e-commerce team for a season of growth or a platform move.

Usually connects to

Tell us who you need

Shop, stock and books that agree on Friday.

Logistics and travel

The problem

Bookings, changes and documents arrive by email at all hours. The team types them into three systems, and customers call to ask where things stand.

Who we place

Engineers who join your product team for booking, routing and integration work.

Usually connects to

Tell us who you need

The customer knows before they ask.

Finance and insurance

The problem

Applications and claims arrive as documents and get checked by hand against rules everyone knows by heart. Every audit means a week of collecting evidence.

Who we place

Engineers who join your platform team and work within your security and compliance processes.

Usually connects to

Tell us who you need

An audit trail written while the work happens.

Software and SaaS

The problem

The roadmap is full, support tickets keep pulling engineers off it, and the internal tools are scripts nobody owns.

Who we place

Senior engineers who join your squads, work in your repo and ship on your release cycle.

Usually connects to

Tell us who you need

Engineers back on the roadmap.
