[ Engagement phases ]

Four phases.
One continuous system.

Four phases.
One continuous system.

Every engagement runs through the same proven structure — from initial discovery through long-term delivery.

Built from 20 years of observations on what makes engineering teams succeed and fail.

Phase 01

Discovery & Team Design

Scope & roadmap

  • Product, stack and roadmap review

  • Internal workflow mapping

Team definition

  • Define team composition & required skills

  • Agree engagement model

Phase 02

Team Build

Sourcing

  • Go to market for required skills

  • Screen & interview candidates

Team assembly

  • Select top-talent engineers

  • Build bespoke team to fit your needs

Phase 03

Squad Launch

Onboarding

  • Roadmap walkthrough,

  • Domain & architecture knowledge transfer.

First 1-3 sprints

  • Founder-supervised standups,

  • Shared backlog & sync/async communication.

Phase 04

Delivery & Iteration

Sprint execution

  • Refinement, estimation, code review,

  • Continuous releases & QA. Reporting & course correction

Reporting & course correction

  • Transparent velocity & blocker reporting

  • Agile re-prioritisation.

[ What makes us different]

What makes us different

Senior-led, small-team execution

We operate with small, senior teams led directly by our founders. Critical technical decisions are made by deeply experienced technologist who have built and run production systems themselves.

Built for complex, long-lived systems

We specialise in software that has to keep running for years. That means clean architecture, proper test coverage, and maintainable code.

Thoughtful use of modern technologies

We adopt new tools and frameworks when they solve a real problem, not because they are trending. Every technology choice is weighed against your team's long-term maintenance burden.

Transparent reporting

You see exactly what the team is doing, sprint by sprint — backlog, velocity, and blockers included.

The model is built on 20 years of observing what causes engineering teams to succeed and fail — across Fortune 100 and FTSE 100 organisations, startups, and everything in between.

learn more about us

Hired for you

We build a bespoke team of top-talent engineers with the specific skills that you need.

100% dedicated

Fully dedicated to your roadmap. The team embeds into your organization and adopts your ways of working and culture — not operating from a separate agency environment.

Domain-onboarded

Every engineer is onboarded with knowledge of your domain, product functionality, and architecture before they touch your backlog. No guesswork, no cold starts.

Self-managed

Trained in the Liquid Labs Product Engineering, Delivery and Quality Process — the team requires minimal supervision from your side. Your PM stays focused on the roadmap, not babysitting.

Continuously coached

Continuous coaching and mentoring from Liquid Labs leadership throughout the engagement — not just at onboarding. Performance, quality, and process compliance are managed from our end.

FAQs

What does Liquid Labs actually do?

We provide technology consulting and dedicated product engineering teams. On the consulting side: new product development, engineering process upgrades, legacy system modernisation, and fractional CTO / COO support. On the engineering side: dedicated teams that embed directly into your organisation to accelerate delivery.

Who do you usually work with?

Technology companies and scaling startups that need either strategic technology guidance or extra engineering capacity — typically founders, CTOs, and engineering leaders managing complex or fast-growing products.

How is this different from typical staff augmentation?

Our engineers are fully dedicated to your roadmap, onboarded into your domain and architecture before they touch the backlog, and overseen directly by our founders throughout the engagement.

How does an engagement work?

Every engagement runs through four phases: discovery (business and technical review), team build (hiring and onboarding), squad launch (supervised first sprints), and delivery (standard sprint cadence with transparent reporting).

What industries do you have the most experience in?

We have the deepest experience in fintech and capital markets, proptech, and foodtech, drawn directly from our founders' backgrounds at the London Stock Exchange Group and Sysco Corporation. That said, our core discipline, senior-led, dedicated product engineering, applies across any domain with complex, business-critical software.

How is pricing structured?

Engagements are typically structured as a monthly fee for a dedicated team, scoped to the roles and seniority you need. There's no markup on individual timesheets or hidden reseller margin — you're paying for a senior, embedded team, not a staffing markup.
