Staff augmentation for US companies
Staff augmentation with AI-enabled engineers
Hiring takes months, and contractors come and go. Staff augmentation (or an extended team, or offshore development, whichever you call it) lets you add engineers who join your team, work in your process and stay, while we handle employment, payroll and equipment. Every engineer we place either builds with AI tools under your rules, or builds AI for a living.

FAQ
Staff augmentation questions
Something we haven’t covered? Tell us the role, the stack and your AI tool policy, and ask us directly.
Tell us the role you need →Who employs the engineer?
We do. They are employed by Aalam, paid by Aalam and performance-reviewed by Aalam. You direct their work day to day; you do not employ them. This is the co-employment question, and it is the right one to ask, because the answer decides where the employment risk sits.
Can I interview and approve every engineer before they start?
Yes, by name, before anyone is assigned to you. If you say no, we go back and find someone else. Nobody appears on your team because we decided they would.
How does the paperwork work?
A Master Service Agreement sets the standing terms once: liability, IP, confidentiality, notice and non-solicitation. Each engagement then runs on a short Statement of Work naming the roles, the rates, the start date and the notice period. Adding a second or third engineer later is a new SOW, not a new negotiation.
What is your engineer retention rate?
We are not publishing a figure until we can stand behind one. Our longest-running engagement has had our engineers on it continuously since June 2023, and grew from one engineer to nine over that period. That is the number we would rather be judged on.
