Our digital engineering services
We are a full-cycle digital engineering organization with nearshore and onshore teams. Work with us two ways. Bring on engineers who work your hours and take direction from your leads. Or hand us a defined project, and we deliver it for a fixed fee and stand behind the date.

Not sure which fits? Tell us about the work and we will recommend a model.
Flexible and modular
The resources match your needs.
Not the other way around.
Every service is modular. Combine them, move between them and scale each one up or down as the work changes.
Combine services
People and Projects work side by side: a dedicated team on your roadmap, a fixed-fee project for a defined build and managed IT services for what is already in production.
Change models
Start on staff augmentation and move to a dedicated team once the work settles, or hand a finished build to managed services to run.
Ramp up and down
Add engineers or pods as the roadmap grows, and scale down with notice when it settles. Managed IT services start with one service and expand as they mature.

Frequently Asked Questions
unosquare is a full-cycle digital engineering organization with nearshore and onshore teams, and we offer two kinds of engagement. People puts engineers on your work. With staff augmentation, you get individual engineers you pick and direct. With a dedicated team, you get a team or a pod we shape around your roadmap. With managed IT services, we run your production systems against an SLA. With Projects, we own the result. We deliver custom software development, assessments, audits and training end to end, for a fixed fee. Most clients start with one model and add others as the work changes.
Start with who should own the result. If you want engineers on your work, choose People. IT staff augmentation fills a specific skill gap with engineers your team interviews and directs. A dedicated development team starts slower, because its leads come first, then scales faster and takes less of your team’s time. If you have a defined project and a deadline, choose Projects. We can deliver the finished product faster and cheaper than you could recruit and ramp a team for it. Still weighing it up? Tell us about the work and we will recommend a model.
The fastest start is IT staff augmentation. We agree the role on day one, present qualified candidates within 5 to 10 business days and have engineers contributing in 2 to 4 weeks, after your team interviews and approves each one. A dedicated development team starts slower, because we hire the team leads first and they take the most care to choose. Once the leads are in place, each pod stands up in 2 to 4 weeks and the team accelerates quickly. A fixed-fee project starts with scope discovery, then a scope proposal and fee for you to approve, and for software you get a working prototype before the build starts. Managed IT services start with an assessment and a NOC rollout, with the team staffed within 2 to 4 weeks. Tell us your timeline and we will give you a realistic plan.
We work across financial services, healthcare, media and publishing, hi-tech, energy & utilities and non-profits. Most of these sectors are regulated, and our engineers know the rules in each one. They build systems that meet audit and governance requirements from day one. We are SOC 2 and HIPAA compliant ourselves.
Yes. Every service is modular, so you can switch models, combine them and scale each one up or down. Plenty of clients start on staff augmentation and move to a dedicated team once the work settles. Others build a product as a fixed-fee project, hand ongoing development to a dedicated team, then add managed IT services to run the product in production. The resources match your needs, not the other way around.
