A real product team
Engagements start at five engineers for twelve months minimum. The team is sized for continuity, not short tactical coverage.
How it works
Build the team, then run it.
TwinTeams has two phases. Build recruits and prepares your development team. Run is the long-term model: your product, your systems, your extended team, shared governance.
Process overview
Two phases. Build, then Run.
Build is where the engagement is defined, the team is recruited and verified, and the operation is set up. Run is where the team works on your products and improves through a shared delivery rhythm.

The working agreement. Decision rights, access boundaries, escalation paths, delivery cadence, and reporting rhythm are agreed before steady-state delivery begins.
Delivery sequence
Five steps from brief to working team.
The customer stays involved where it matters: defining the team, interviewing candidates, setting operating expectations, and steering product priorities.
- 01
Define
Customer and TwinTeams agree the product stream, team, commercial model, start window, timezone overlap, and success measures.
- 02
Match
TwinTeams sources and screens candidates for technical depth, communication, ownership, AI workflow discipline, and customer fit. Each proposed hire reaches a 60-minute customer-led final interview.
- 03
Onboard
We prepare contracts, equipment, payroll, HR, access, repositories, security boundaries, ceremony cadence, and the joint working agreement.
- 04
Deliver
The team works inside your repos and workflow with a visible delivery rhythm, recorded decisions, demos, review loops, and joint governance.
- 05
Grow
Ongoing support, retrospectives, delivery feedback, and customer success loops keep improving the team after the first operating cycle.
Step one is defining the team. Start there: Build your team.
The setup
One setup covers people, access, and delivery.
Team extension fails when recruitment, access, governance, and delivery cadence are treated as separate problems. TwinTeams handles them as one setup.
Recruited for you
Engineers are selected for the customer engagement, assessed for readiness, and kept to one customer.
Operational model
Access, tools, reporting, escalation paths, governance rhythm, and working agreements are defined before steady-state delivery.
Security boundaries
Customer systems stay customer-owned. Access, IP handling, permissions, and environment hygiene are set up deliberately.
Remote delivery rhythm
Async writing, shared ceremonies, recorded decisions, demos, retrospectives, and review loops keep work visible across locations.
What you commit to
- Define the product stream, team requirements, constraints, and start window.
- Make time for final-round interviews and meeting the proposed engineers.
- Provide access context, codebase orientation, decision rights, and product priorities.
- Stay present in joint governance during Run.
What TwinTeams commits to
- Recruit for the engagement rather than allocating from a generic bench.
- Run screening, technical assessment, operational setup, contracts, equipment, payroll, and HR.
- Keep engineers ring-fenced to one customer with no bench rotation.
- Maintain delivery visibility through working agreements, recorded decisions, and improvement loops.
Next step
Define the first team brief.
Start with the product stream, roles, timing, and the work the team will own. The brief gives us enough context to propose the engineers and roles to start with.
