The Tech Partner
Built for Growing Companies.

Forward deployed engineering (FDE) is a model where engineers are embedded directly inside a client's team and product environment — rather than working from a separate agency. Instead of handing off a finished product, FDE engineers work alongside your team, understand your live codebase, and ship features directly into production as if they were an internal hire. Kimshuka uses FDE for AI development engagements, where integrating AI into a real product requires the kind of deep context that can't be handed over in a brief.

We primarily serve companies with under 100 employees and annual revenue under $50 million. Our model is built for organisations that need professional software development, managed IT, or engineering talent but can't justify building dedicated in-house teams for all three. We've worked with companies from 2-person startups all the way to 80-person scale-ups, across India, the US, UK, and Europe.

Yes. Kimshuka Technologies is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified for Information Security Management. Certificate No. UQ-2026042511, valid through April 2029, verifiable at ukcertifications.org.uk. This certification covers our software development, managed IT, and AI development services — meaning your data and our engagements meet enterprise-grade security standards.

For tech recruitment and staff augmentation, we typically present pre-screened candidates within days, not months. Every candidate is evaluated by our own technical team before you see a name, so you only meet strong matches. We offer contract, try-before-hire, and permanent placement options across frontend, backend, DevOps, and QA roles.

In-house IT means hiring full-time employees to manage your company's technology — typically more expensive and slower to set up. Managed IT services give you a full IT team on a monthly arrangement, covering Microsoft 365, device management, cloud infrastructure, and cybersecurity — at a fraction of the cost of building internally. For companies under 100 people, managed IT is almost always more cost-effective than hiring in-house.

Strapi is the leading open-source headless CMS — a content management system that stores and serves your content via API rather than being tied to a single frontend. This means one Strapi instance can power your website, mobile app, email campaigns, and any other channel simultaneously. As an official Strapi partner, Kimshuka builds on Strapi for web applications (powered by Next.js), mobile apps (React Native), and omnichannel content platforms — giving content editors a simple dashboard while developers get a clean, flexible API.

Omnichannel content delivery means publishing from a single source to every customer touchpoint — web, mobile app, email, digital signage, and third-party platforms — without duplicating or manually republishing. Strapi enables this through REST and GraphQL APIs that any frontend or platform can consume. Kimshuka designs the content model and API architecture upfront so editors write once and content appears correctly across all channels automatically.

We serve SMEs across SaaS, hardware and deep tech, food manufacturing, B2B e-commerce, workflow automation, and professional services. Our clients range from 2-person startups to companies with up to 100 employees, across India, the US, UK, and Europe. If you're a growing business that needs professional technology delivery without building everything in-house, we're built for you.

Kimshuka is price competitive with hiring one to two engineers in-house — but instead of a single mid-level hire, you get a full team: senior architects who guide technology decisions and best practices, developers who build and ship, and QA coverage to keep quality high. There are no recruitment costs, no benefits overhead, no management burden, and no months-long onboarding. You also get the flexibility to scale the team up or down as your needs change — something an in-house hire can't offer.
