How it works
From first call to a shipping team in four steps
A clear, low-risk process. You meet every candidate and stay in control, while we handle the heavy lifting.
Start with step one- Week 1
Discover
We sit down with you to understand your long-term vision, the roles you need and how your team works today. If something is urgent, our project team can start on deliverables while we build your permanent team.
- Weeks 1–2
Shortlist & interview
We screen our talent network against your brief, run technical assessments and present a shortlist. You run the final interviews and choose who joins.
- Weeks 2–4
Onboard
We handle contracts, equipment, workspace and security, then onboard your engineers into your tools, rituals and codebase. If our project team was helping, we run a structured knowledge transfer.
- Ongoing
Deliver & scale
Your team ships with you day to day, backed by an Itrowin delivery manager. Add roles, swap skills or scale down as your roadmap changes.

From the blog
Thinking from our team
Practical guides on building teams, offshore delivery, hiring costs, data and AI.
Staff augmentation vs dedicated teams: which model fits your roadmap?
Both models give you access to skilled engineers without the cost of permanent hiring, but they solve different problems. Here's how to choose.
IPWhy Sri Lanka is becoming a go-to destination for software engineering
Strong universities, a mature product-engineering culture and a convenient time zone for Europe. What makes Sri Lanka stand out, and what to watch for.
TTWhy your dashboards aren't driving decisions, and how to fix it
Most organisations don't have a data problem. They have a decision problem. Here's how to design reports people actually use.
DPFAQ
Questions, answered
Can't find what you're looking for? Our team is happy to help.
Custom AI applications, AI integrations for existing software, generative AI tools, chatbots, virtual assistants, AI API integrations and autonomous AI agents. Most projects start with a short discovery to find the use case with the clearest return.
We work with OpenAI (GPT models), Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Azure OpenAI and AWS Bedrock, plus open-source models where they make sense. We pick the model for each task based on quality, speed, cost and data requirements, and design so you can switch providers later.
Yes. We use enterprise agreements and private deployments where needed, minimise and redact personal data, apply access controls and log what AI systems do. We document data flows so you can explain them to your customers and auditors.
A focused proof of concept typically takes two to four weeks. A production-ready chatbot, assistant or AI feature is often six to twelve weeks, depending on integrations and the review steps required.
We typically present a shortlist within two weeks of the discovery call. Individual engineers can often start within 2–3 weeks; a full dedicated team within 4 weeks.
With staff augmentation you manage the engineers directly as part of your team. With outsourcing (project delivery), you hand over a scope and we manage the day-to-day delivery. Augmentation suits teams that want to stay hands-on; outsourcing suits teams that want to delegate.
