Engagement Models
Three Ways to Work With Us
Dedicated Monthly
Your specialist, full-time, on your tools and in your standups. Best for continuous roadmaps and brands shipping every week.
From $3,100 / month
- 160 hours per month
- Direct Slack access and daily standups
- Mid-level, senior and lead tiers available
- Monthly rolling, 30 days notice
Part-Time Retainer
A fixed block of hours each month for maintenance, improvements and the small jobs that pile up. Best for stores that are stable but not static.
From $800 / month
- 40 or 80 hours per month
- Prioritised task queue
- Unused hours roll over one month
- Upgrade to dedicated at any time
Project-Based
Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed deadline. Best for migrations, rebuilds and anything with a clear finish line.
From $3,500
- Written scope agreed before work starts
- Milestone billing, not full payment upfront
- 30 days post-launch support included
- Blended rate $25 to $45 per hour
A dedicated seat costs roughly a fifth of the loaded cost of a comparable US hire, with no recruitment fee, no benefits and no notice period. Most brands start on a part-time retainer and move to dedicated once the roadmap outgrows the hours. We will tell you honestly if a project quote serves you better than a monthly commitment.

How It Works
From First Call to First Commit
Scope
A 30-minute call to understand your stack, your roadmap and the gap you are filling. We will tell you which role actually solves it, even when it is a smaller engagement than you asked about.
Match
We put forward specialists from our team with the relevant experience, including work samples from comparable builds. You interview them yourself.
Trial Week
Your chosen specialist works a real ticket from your backlog. If the fit is wrong, you owe nothing and we match again.
Scale
Once embedded, adjust up or down each month as your roadmap changes. No renegotiation, no penalty.
Skills & Stack
Skills and Stack
Shopify staff augmentation from KolachiTech gives you pre-vetted Shopify talent on flexible monthly contracts. Whether you need a developer for a three-month migration, a designer for a theme rebuild, or a full team for a peak season push, our staff augmentation model lets you scale without the recruitment timeline, benefits load, or long-term commitment of a US hire.
Every specialist in our Shopify staff augmentation program is screened by our senior team, has worked on live Shopify stores, and can work in your tools, your process, and your time zone. You manage them directly, or we provide a project manager to coordinate — your choice. Scale up or down with 30 days notice, and stop entirely when the work is done. No recruitment fees, no severance, no bench cost.
