Why outstaff Ruby engineers instead of direct hiring? Because every extra week without the right talent costs lost revenue and delayed releases. Smartbrain’s augmentation model plugs pre-vetted, senior Ruby specialists straight into your Shopify Plus-Oracle backlog—in days, not months. You skip recruitment fees, payroll taxes, and long-term liabilities while keeping full technical control. Flexible, month-to-month contracts scale up or down with demand, so CAPEX turns into OPEX. Our engineers are embedded, join your Slack, follow your sprints, and arrive with domain experience in ERP, eCommerce, and high-throughput API integrations. The result: faster delivery, lower risk, and a happier in-house team that can focus on roadmap, not onboarding.
