Engineering alongside your team: capacity and depth, without hiring for it.

Senior Ignition engineers working inside your project, to your standards, your backlog, and your schedule. Most of what Artek does.

Who this is for

Your team owns the system. We add the capacity and the depth.

The pattern is the same everywhere: a capable internal team, more backlog than people, and one or two areas (MES, a migration, historian design, an ERP interface) nobody on staff has done at this scale. Hiring for that takes months. We put senior Ignition engineers inside your project instead.

  • Surge capacity for a go-live, migration or multi-site rollout
  • Depth in one area, without a permanent hire
  • A second senior opinion inside the team
  • Continuity after a build, so the people who commissioned it stay reachable
  • Cover for a key departure while you recruit
How it works

Inside your project, on your terms

Our engineers work in your repository, to your standards, in your process. Your team keeps ownership throughout.

  • StandardsYours — structure, naming, conventions, review
  • ProcessYour backlog, your cadence, your release gates
  • OwnershipYour system, your repository, your documentation
  • ShapeWeeks of surge, or a long-running arrangement
  • SenioritySenior Ignition engineers, not general contractors
What you get

What comes with them

  • Engineers who know where Ignition breaks
  • Work reviewed to the standard we hold our own projects to
  • Judgment on the decisions that are expensive to reverse
  • Knowledge that stays in your repository and docs
  • An escalation path into the rest of Artek when something odd comes up
  • The option to hand over a whole subsystem later
On AI-assisted teams

Many internal teams now move fast with AI help, and that's good. What tends to fall behind is a consistent architecture across a growing system, and responsibility for behavior under load and failure. That's the gap our engineers close, working alongside your people. How we think about AI →

If you want the read before the resource

Some teams want an independent read of what they've built before adding people. Start with a free Ignition MRI. If the structure is the constraint, an Architecture Blueprint. If the project has already gone wrong, a Project Rescue.

Questions

Before you call

How is this different from hiring a staffing firm?+

A staffing firm sends whoever is available. We send senior Ignition engineers who have built these systems for a living, several from Inductive Automation itself, and they arrive already knowing where the platform breaks. We stay responsible for their work. Our name is on it.

Do your engineers work to our standards or yours?+

Yours. We adopt your structure, naming, tag conventions, review process and release cadence. If those aren't settled yet, we can help define them.

What sort of commitment is involved?+

Anything from a few weeks of surge through a migration to a long-running arrangement. We'd rather start small and grow on the strength of the work.

What happens to the knowledge when the engagement ends?+

It stays with you. Our engineers work in your repository and your documentation, and we aim to leave your team more capable than we found it.
