IT Staff Augmentation From Empiric Infotech LLP

Empiric Infotech LLP does IT staff augmentation for Australian product teams as a dedicated-developer engagement: a remote developer, or a small dedicated team, added to your existing team full-time and exclusively, working in your GitHub or GitLab org, your tracker, your CI pipeline, and your Slack, with an Australian-afternoon overlap and overnight async delivery - not a staffing-agency or labour-hire placement with a placement fee and a bill-rate markup, and not a part-time freelancer juggling other clients. The developer joins your standups, picks up your tickets, ships into your repo, and a senior team lead reviews and tests what they deliver before it lands. We listen first, then introduce one developer who fits the role and the stack you described - frontend, backend, full-stack, mobile, DevOps, AI/ML, or UI/UX - and every developer on the team has cleared our technical interviews. The engagement is AUD $3,000 per month per developer, with no Fair Work obligations, super, or payroll tax, onboarded in 48 hours, and you scale your team a developer at a time.

What you get when an Empiric Infotech developer joins your Australian team

Not a list of profiles to sift through and not a contractor who disappears at month's end. A full-time, exclusive developer on your team, on an Australian-afternoon overlap, in your stack, code-reviewed by a senior lead, ramped in week one - and no Fair Work, super, or payroll-tax overhead.

A full-time developer, exclusive to your team

160-172 hours a month on your work and only your work - not a fraction of someone's week, not a person juggling three clients. The developer joins your team on an Australian-afternoon overlap, then overnight async delivery, attends your standups, picks up tickets from your tracker, and ships into your repo. From your side it works like adding a person, without the hiring loop.

Working inside your stack, your tools, your process

Your GitHub or GitLab org, your branching and pull-request workflow, your CI and deploy pipeline, your tracker (Linear, Jira, Asana, GitHub Projects), your design tool, your Slack, your standup cadence. The developer adapts to how your team already works; you do not adopt ours.

Senior-lead code review on what they ship

Beyond your own review, a senior team lead at Empiric Infotech reviews and tests what your developer delivers - code review, functional testing, and a check against the agreed scope - before it lands. On a multi-developer engagement that lead also keeps the developers aligned. It is built into the engagement, not a separate billable role.

The roles a product team actually needs

Frontend (React, Next.js, Vue), backend (Node.js, Python with Django, Flask, FastAPI), full-stack, mobile (Flutter, React Native, native iOS and Android), DevOps and cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD), AI and ML engineers, and UI/UX designers. Every developer on the team has cleared our technical interviews; we introduce one who fits the role and the stack you described.

Onboarded in 48 hours, ramping in week one

Once you sign off, your developer has access and a working environment within 48 hours, and ships a real first contribution inside the first week. No multi-week ramp, no waiting on a recruiting cycle - we listen first, then introduce one developer who fits, you talk to them, and they start.

Scale a developer at a time, up or down

Need a second developer when a deadline lands, a third when the roadmap grows? Add one at the same flat monthly rate, in 48 hours, with no re-contracting. Roadmap settles? Drop back down a developer at a time, month to month. You size your team to the work, not to a 12-month contract.

A developer who is still there in month nine

A dedicated engagement is not a gig that ends. The same named developer is on your team month after month, knows your codebase and your domain, and does not get rotated off onto someone else's project. Continuity is the point - the developer who learned your system is the one still extending it next quarter.

How a staff augmentation engagement gets set up

No multi-week recruiting cycle and no twenty-page statement of work. A call, a written role proposal, a conversation with the developer, a trial, then a monthly engagement you can end with 7 days notice.

1

A scoping call

Thirty to forty-five minutes on an Australian-afternoon slot. You tell us the role, the stack, the seniority, your team's process, your timeline, and your constraints. No charge and no obligation.

2

A written role proposal and an introduction

We come back with the developer (or developers) we would put on it - background, stack, seniority - and the flat monthly price in AUD. You talk to them directly before anyone starts.

3

A 7-day risk-free trial

The developer gets access, a working environment, and ships a real first contribution inside the first week on an Australian-afternoon overlap, reviewed and tested by a senior lead. Not a fit by day 7? Full refund, or a no-cost swap inside that window.

4

A monthly engagement, cancel any time

Billed monthly in AUD by bank transfer or card. Seven days notice to stop. No auto-renewal, no minimum term, no Fair Work lock-in. Add a developer when the work grows, drop one when it does not.

Staff augmentation for Australian companies from AUD $3,000 per month, per developer

One dedicated developer is AUD $3,000 per month for 160-172 hours of full-time, exclusive work on your team, in your repo and your tools, with an Australian-afternoon overlap and a senior lead reviewing and testing what they ship. No placement fee, no recruitment fee, no markup over a bill rate. Need more capacity? Add developers at the same flat per-developer rate. Billed monthly in AUD, 7-day risk-free trial.

Talk to us
Most Australian engagements start with one dedicated developer. When the work grows, you add a developer at the same flat AUD $3,000 per month each - in 48 hours, with no re-contracting - and a senior team lead reviews and tests every delivery and keeps the developers aligned. Quality assurance is part of that lead's job, not an extra line item. You size your team to the work, not the other way around.

What the first 90 days look like with an Empiric Infotech developer on an Australian team

A dedicated engagement is rolling, not a fixed contract. Here is the shape of the first three months on a typical Australian engagement.

  1. Week 1

    Access, environment, and the first contribution

    Repo and tool access, a working local environment, the developer in your afternoon standups and your tracker, and a real first pull request reviewed and merged - reviewed and tested by a senior lead. Day 7 is the decision point.

  2. Month 1

    Fully ramped and carrying tickets

    By the end of month one the developer picks up tickets without hand-holding, ships at a steady pace on the afternoon overlap plus overnight async, and slots into your review and release process. Every change shipped has been through your review plus a senior-lead pass.

  3. Month 2

    Owning a slice of the roadmap

    The developer owns a feature area or workstream end to end, joins planning, flags risks early, and is someone your team relies on. If the workload spiked, this is where you add a second developer.

  4. Month 3

    A steady, known quantity

    Three months in, predictable output, knows your domain and your system's quirks, and the engagement is something you adjust month to month. Scale up for a push, scale down when it passes.

Why Australian product teams pick a dedicated developer over a staffing-agency placement

Sydney and Melbourne product teams already know the script: a recruiting agency takes a placement fee of 15 to 25 percent of the first-year salary, or, on a contract basis, a day rate of roughly AUD $700 to $1,400, which puts a contractor in the AUD $13,000 to $30,000 a month range. A full-time Australian hire is roughly AUD $13,000 to $18,000 a month fully loaded once you add superannuation, payroll tax, leave loading, workers' comp, equipment, and recruiting, plus two to four months to fill the seat and a managed process under the Fair Work Act if it does not work out. Empiric Infotech's AUD $3,000 a month per developer is 160-172 hours of full-time, exclusive work on your team, billed monthly in AUD, with no placement fee and no markup - and a senior lead reviewing and testing what the developer ships at no extra cost.

A staffing or labour-hire agency's job ends when the person starts; whether they perform, ramp, and stay is on you. A marketplace freelancer is rarely exclusive and disappears when the gig ends. Empiric Infotech stays accountable for the developer for as long as the engagement runs: a senior team lead reviews their work, we replace inside the 7-day window at no cost if the fit is wrong, and the same named person is on your team month after month rather than rolling off a bench. We listen first, introduce one developer who fits, and every developer on the team has cleared our technical interviews. The developer is not your employee or a labour-hire worker, so there is no Fair Work, super, or payroll-tax exposure.

We have been doing this with Australian clients since 2014 - dedicated developers and small dedicated teams embedded with product companies, agencies, and startups, including Acceleread (a speed-reading training app) and Yield Magnet (a decentralized DeFi marketplace). The depth shows up in the parts a job spec does not capture: a developer who flags a risk before it becomes a fire, who writes code your team can maintain after they roll off, who knows when to ask versus when to ship, overlaps your afternoon for the calls that need to be live, and gives you the honesty to know when the role you described actually needs a different specialist than the brief implied.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

One dedicated developer for 160-172 hours a month, full-time and exclusive to your team, working in your GitHub or GitLab org, your tracker, and your process on an Australian-afternoon overlap, with a senior team lead reviewing and testing what they ship, billed monthly in AUD, with a 7-day risk-free trial. No placement fee, no recruitment fee, no markup, no super, no payroll tax, no Fair Work obligations. Need more capacity? Add a developer at the same flat AUD $3,000 per month each.

A staffing or labour-hire agency charges a placement fee or a marked-up day rate, and their job ends when the person starts. We charge a flat AUD $3,000 a month with no placement fee and no markup, the developer is full-time and exclusive to you, a senior lead reviews their work for as long as the engagement runs, and we swap inside the 7-day trial at no cost if the fit is wrong. The developer is not your employee or a labour-hire worker, so there is no Fair Work, super, or payroll-tax exposure. It is staff augmentation as a dedicated-developer engagement, not a placement.

Yes. Your developer works inside your accounts so personal data stays in your systems, we can keep any data we touch in ap-southeast-2 (Sydney) when residency matters, and because it is a monthly vendor engagement - not employment or labour hire - there are no Fair Work obligations, superannuation, payroll tax, or leave loading on your side.

We do not bill a separate QA seat. Quality control is built into every engagement: a senior team lead or project manager reviews and tests what your developer ships before it lands - code review, functional testing, and a check against the agreed scope. The roles we add to your team are frontend, backend, full-stack, mobile, DevOps, AI/ML, and UI/UX designers; if you run your own QA process, your developer works inside it.

You tell us the role, the stack, the seniority, and how your team works. We listen first, then introduce one developer who fits - background, stack, seniority - and you talk to them directly before anyone starts. Every developer on the team has cleared our technical interviews. It is one fit, plus a 7-day trial to confirm it.

Australian and New Zealand clients get a daily afternoon live window - roughly 2:00 to 5:30 PM AEST (wider for Perth) - for standups, planning, and pair-coding, then overnight async work. The developer is on your tracker and Slack the whole working day, and you review shipped work the next morning.

The first 7 days are a risk-free trial: a full refund if it is not a fit, and a no-cost swap to a different developer inside that window. After that it is monthly billing with 7 days notice to stop - no auto-renewal, no minimum term, no penalty, and no Fair Work process to manage because the developer is not your employee.

Yes, a developer at a time. Add one when a deadline lands or the roadmap grows - at the same flat AUD $3,000 per month, in 48 hours, with no re-contracting. Drop back down when the work settles, month to month with 7 days notice. A senior team lead keeps the developers aligned when there is more than one.

Yes. A dedicated engagement means one named person on your team month after month - not someone who gets rotated off onto another project. Continuity is the point: the developer who learned your codebase and your domain is the one still extending it next quarter.
