Scale Your Java Team Without the Hiring Headaches
Get senior Java and Spring Boot engineers embedded in your team within days. We match mission-driven companies with developers who care about what you're building.
When You Need Java Talent Now
Traditional hiring takes months. Your roadmap can't wait. Staff augmentation gives you immediate access to experienced Java developers who slot into your team, adopt your processes, and start shipping from day one.
Bridge Critical Skill Gaps
Need Spring Boot expertise your team doesn't have? Or a Java architect to guide a modernization effort? We place specialists who complement your existing engineers.
How to pick the right partner →Scale Up (or Down) Quickly
Project demands fluctuate. Add senior engineers for a product launch, then right-size your team afterward. Flexible engagements from 3 months to multi-year partnerships.
Why staff augmentation works →Mission-Aligned Developers
We screen for more than technical skills. Our developers understand your domain, ask smart questions, and stick around when requirements get complicated.
What makes a good cultural fit →Senior-Level Java Expertise
Every engineer we place has production Java experience. Spring Boot, microservices, cloud-native development — they've shipped real systems and know what works.
Spring Boot consulting →Seamless Team Integration
Our developers join your Slack, follow your Git workflow, participate in standups. They work the same hours, use your tools, and are indistinguishable from your permanent hires.
Knowledge That Stays
When an engagement ends, we make sure your team retains what was learned. Documentation, code reviews, and pairing sessions ensure lasting knowledge transfer.
How We Work
Discovery Call
We start by understanding your tech stack, team dynamics, and the specific skills you need. We ask about your mission because it matters — developers who care about what you're building perform better and stay longer.
Candidate Matching
We identify candidates from our network of senior Java engineers. You get a shortlist of two or three people with detailed profiles. No spray-and-pray — we only surface candidates we'd put on our own projects.
Technical Interview
You interview the candidates using your own process. We facilitate but stay out of the way. You decide who joins your team — we're confident enough in our matching to let the results speak.
Onboarding & Integration
We help your new engineer get up to speed quickly — codebase orientation, tooling setup, and introductions to key stakeholders. Most engineers are making meaningful contributions within the first two weeks.
Ongoing Support
We stay involved. Regular check-ins with both you and the engineer ensure alignment and catch issues early. If something isn't working, we address it proactively — not when it's already a problem.

From Our Clients
"We needed a senior Spring Boot developer fast. Katyella placed someone who understood our healthcare mission and was contributing real code within the first week. That's rare."

Is Staff Augmentation Right for You?
Good Fit If You...
- ✓
Have an established team that needs specific skills added
- ✓
Need developers within 2–4 weeks, not 3–6 months
- ✓
Have a clear project roadmap but lack the headcount to execute
- ✓
Want flexibility to scale up for launches and scale back after
- ✓
Use Java/Spring Boot as your primary backend technology
Consider Consulting Instead If...
- →
You need a complete team built from scratch
- →
The scope is fixed and you need a full project delivered
- →
You don't have internal technical leadership to direct the work
- →
You need architecture guidance more than implementation bandwidth
