Referral partners
You know who needs us.
We make it worth your while.
Who this is for
If your clients have engineering problems you don't solve — we do.
We work with a small number of referral partners — people who regularly advise companies that need engineering help but aren't in the business of providing it themselves.
When the fit is right, we make it simple: you make the introduction, we do the work, and we share the upside with you.
Fractional CTOs & technical advisors
You advise on strategy and architecture. When your clients need execution, you need a partner you trust to deliver.
Management consulting firms
You define the strategy. Your clients need an engineering partner to build what you've scoped. We're that partner.
PE operating partners & deal teams
You work with portfolio companies that need technical due diligence, modernization, or a team to execute the 100-day plan.
Independent advisors & board members
You sit on boards or advise founders. When engineering is the bottleneck, you need someone reliable to recommend.
How it works
Simple by design.
01
You make the introduction
Connect us with a company you think could benefit. A warm intro is all it takes — no formal referral paperwork upfront.
02
We take it from there
We run the qualification, scoping, and commercial conversation. You stay involved as much or as little as you want.
03
We share the upside
When an engagement starts, you earn a referral fee. The exact structure depends on the engagement — we discuss it upfront, before you make the intro.

Your reputation is on the line when you make a referral.
Here's why ours holds up.

Senior engineers, not juniors
The people we put on a project are experienced. Your clients won't be a training ground for someone's first year.
We've worked in their industry
Fintech, capital markets, healthcare, enterprise SaaS, PE-backed platforms — we know the constraints before we start.
We deliver, consistently
"One of the most consistent track records of delivering on time and per expectations — week over week, for seven years." — Former Director, LTSE
We don't compete with you
We're an engineering partner, not a strategy firm. We build systems — we don't advise on business strategy, don't compete for the advisory relationship.
