FAQ
-
How quickly can an engineer start?
Engineers can usually be ready to start within two days to one week, depending on the technical skills and number of engineers you need. We confirm availability and start dates once we understand your requirements.
-
Can the engineer work with my existing development team?
Yes. Your engineer can work alongside your internal developers, technical lead, CTO or other technology partners and follow your existing development tools, processes and standards.
-
What if we do not have an internal technical team?
That is also common. Your engineer can help clarify requirements, explain technical options and keep development work visible. When broader specialist input is needed, additional Shinetech expertise can be brought into the engagement.
-
How do we communicate with the engineer?
You communicate directly with the engineer doing the work using the tools agreed with your team. Working hours and communication arrangements are confirmed before the engagement starts.
-
How do you manage development quality?
Engineers follow agreed development practices and project standards, with work reviewed and demonstrated regularly. Additional technical review and specialist support can be provided when the project requires it.
-
What happens if the engineer is not the right fit?
Tell us what is not working. We can discuss the issue with you and, where appropriate, arrange another engineer and an organised handover.
-
Can we increase or reduce engineering capacity later?
Yes, engineering capacity can be adjusted as your requirements change, subject to engineer availability and the terms agreed for the engagement.
-
Who owns the software and code developed?
You own the custom code and deliverables created specifically for your project under the agreed engagement terms. Existing third-party or pre-existing components remain subject to their respective ownership and licence conditions.
