Where do you need us?
Staff Augmentation
Product teams
Staff your team
- What you get — Vetted senior engineers who plug into your stack, standups, and sprints. You direct the day-to-day; we deliver inside your cadence.
- Real-time, not offshore — Full US-hours overlap from Brazil. Same-day collaboration, not async hand-offs.
- Scale on demand — Add or drop engineers as projects flex, without breaking delivery.
- Agency-ready — White-label by default. Your client sees your team; they never see us.
How it works: a short matching call → engineers onboarded into your repo and tools → they ship in your sprint cadence with clear reporting.
Pricing: from ~$32/hr per embedded engineer; senior/architect at $50–60/hr — month-to-month or committed.
A team for your product
- What you get — A self-managed pod (tech lead, engineers, and design) that takes the vision from discovery to launch and owns delivery end to end.
- AI-accelerated scoping — Spec-driven discovery on our own AI framework, so the work is scoped precisely before a line of code.
- Built to scale — Architecture designed to grow from 100 to 1M users.
- Transparent by default — Weekly demos, clear milestones, no black boxes. White-label delivery for agencies.
How it works: discovery → we assemble the right team → we build in sprints with demos and milestones → launch and iterate.
Pricing: fixed-price by scope, or a monthly team retainer.
Our tech stack
Top Brazilian talent — and we can prove it.
"Senior" gets thrown around a lot. Here's exactly what it means at ByteNana — every engineer, no exceptions:
- 5+ years building production software
- C1-level English, fully client-facing
- Passes our technical assessment before they ever touch your repo
- Architecture-capable — consultants first, coders second
We hire from the top of the LATAM talent pool. We don't send you people to manage into shape; we send you people you'd have hired yourself.
Senior US calibre. Half the cost.
Same seniority, full US-hours overlap. You just stop paying for the overhead.
US senior hire

per engineer, per year.
No US overhead
Pay for engineering, not benefits and a recruiter's cut.
Cheaper, not cheap
Same vetting bar. The savings are geography, not a lower standard.
AI-capable, not buzzword.
Most shops list a few AI tools and call it a day. We bring our own AI engineering framework and a spec-driven approach to scoping and building.
Our own framework
A spec-driven AI engineering approach to scoping and building — not a few tools bolted on.
Real LLM stack
We build with RAG, GPT-4 and other LLMs, LangChain, and n8n — production AI, not demos.
AI-powered discovery
We scope the work precisely with AI before a single line of code, so estimates hold up.
Fast prototyping
Rapid AI prototyping for your product — validate ideas in days, not sprints. And we level your team up on it.
Verified, not self-proclaimed.

We've removed the friction from tech outsourcing by focusing on the four things that matter most.
Real-time, not offshore
Brazil sits in full overlap with US business hours. Same-day collaboration in your standup — not async hand-offs twelve hours behind.
Consultants first, developers second
A small, hand-picked team that solves the business problem, not just closes the ticket.
Built to scale
Architecture designed to grow from 100 to 1M users, delivered in agile sprints with constant iteration.
Transparent by default
No black boxes. Full visibility into the work, the progress, and every line of code.
From discovery to launch — no overhead.
We've refined our workflow to get your project from the first call to a successful launch without the friction.
Questions, answered.
The things founders and CTOs ask us right before they book a call.
Staff augmentation or a product team — which one do I need?
If you have a roadmap and a team but need more senior hands in your stack, that's staff augmentation — our engineers embed in your standups and sprints, and you direct the work. If you have a vision but no team to own it, that's a product team — a self-managed pod takes it from discovery to launch. Not sure? Book a call and we'll tell you straight.
How does working with a Brazil-based team actually work day-to-day?
Brazil sits in full overlap with US business hours. Your engineers are in your standups live, replying in real time — not handing off work twelve hours behind like traditional offshore. Same tools, same repo, same Slack, same day.
What does it cost?
Embedded engineers start around $32/hr; senior and architect-level engineers run $50–60/hr. A senior ByteNana engineer lands near ~$100k/yr all-in versus ~$195k for a comparable US hire — roughly half, with no recruiter fee, benefits, or payroll overhead. Product builds are fixed-price by scope or a monthly team retainer.
How senior are your engineers, really?
Every engineer has 5+ years shipping production software, C1-level client-facing English, and passes our technical assessment before touching your repo. They're architecture-capable — consultants first, coders second. We send people you'd have hired yourself, not people you have to manage into shape.
How fast can someone start?
Most engagements begin with a short matching call, and engineers are onboarded into your repo and tools within days — not the weeks or months a direct US hire takes.
What if my needs change — can I scale up or down?
Yes. Staff augmentation is month-to-month or committed, and you can add or drop engineers as projects flex without breaking delivery. You're not locked into a headcount you no longer need.
Who owns the code and IP?
You do — fully. All work product, code, and IP belong to you, and we'll sign your NDA and MSA. Transparency is the default: full visibility into the work, the progress, and every line of code.
What does "AI-native" actually mean here?
It's not a tools list. We bring our own spec-driven AI engineering framework and use it to scope work precisely before a line of code, and we build production AI — RAG, LLMs, LangChain, n8n — not demos. We'll also level your team up on it.
