Why London businesses hire AyTech as their development team

Hiring permanent engineers in London is expensive, slow, and risky. A senior full-stack developer costs £70,000–£100,000 per year in salary alone — before NI, pension, equipment, and management overhead. And if the hire doesn't work out, you're back to square one 6 months later.

Our dedicated team model gives you experienced engineers working on your product, billed monthly, with a 30-day exit clause. No recruitment fees, no probation periods, no bench time.

Frequently asked questions

How does hiring a dedicated software team work?
You get a small, focused team (typically 1–3 engineers plus a technical lead) who work on your product for a fixed monthly engagement. We join your Slack, attend your standups, and work to your sprint cadence. You get the output of a full team without the overhead of hiring or managing individuals.
How much does a dedicated development team cost per month?
Engagements start from £5,000 per month for a single senior engineer. A team of 2–3 engineers typically runs £10,000–£18,000 per month. This is usually 40–60% cheaper than equivalent permanent hires when you account for salary, NI, pension, equipment, and management overhead.
What is the minimum engagement length?
Our minimum is three months. After that, we require 30 days' notice to wind down. Most clients stay for 6–18 months. There is no long-term lock-in beyond the initial term.
How is this different from hiring freelancers?
With freelancers you manage individual relationships, absorb availability gaps, and lose continuity when someone leaves. With AyTech you get a team with bench depth, technical leadership, and code review built in. If one engineer is unavailable, the work continues. You manage one relationship, not several.
Who owns the code written by the team?
You own 100% of all code written during the engagement. All intellectual property is assigned to you. We retain no rights to the code, architecture, or documentation we produce.
