Build High-Impact Engineering Teams with Superior IT Staff Augmentation Services
Sthenos enables organizations to scale engineering capacity quickly by providing access to experienced technology professionals who integrate seamlessly into existing teams. Our IT staff augmentation model is designed for speed, flexibility, and delivery, helping businesses move forward without the delays of traditional recruitment.
We work with companies at different growth stages to supplement internal teams with engineers who bring hands-on expertise, strong ownership, and a product-focused mindset. Whether supporting new initiatives, addressing skill gaps, or accelerating delivery timelines, our teams adapt to your workflows and operate as an extension of your organization.
By partnering with Sthenos, organizations can expand technical capabilities on demand while maintaining control over execution and priorities. This approach reduces operational overhead, improves delivery velocity, and allows leadership teams to focus on strategic outcomes rather than talent constraints.
ROI-Driven IT Team Augmentation Engagement Model
At Sthenos, our staff augmentation model is designed around outcomes, not headcount. We help organizations add the right engineering capability at the right moment—without long hiring cycles or rigid contracts. Whether you need individual specialists or fully aligned delivery units, our engagement models adapt to your pace, priorities, and ROI goals.
Alpha
Highly skilled engineers who plug directly into your existing teams to close capability gaps fast. Ideal for organizations that need deep expertise in specific technologies or short-term acceleration without disrupting internal workflows.
Best for: niche skills, rapid scaling, targeted problem-solving
Squads/Guilds
Small, coordinated groups of engineers aligned around a specific function or domain, working as a natural extension of your in-house team. These units bring consistency, shared context, and faster delivery across critical initiatives.
Best for: sustained delivery, platform evolution, parallel workstreams
Pods
Self-managed, cross-functional teams that own outcomes end-to-end—from design and engineering to testing and release. Each pod operates with clear goals, tight feedback loops, and accountability for results, not just effort.
Best for: product development, modernization programs, innovation initiatives
