Nearshore engineering in a US-friendly time zoneEngineering for what’s nextMeet SGuard

How we work with you

A 2-week discovery sprint, a fixed-scope project or a dedicated team. NDA, your code and IP, an English contract and time-zone overlap.

Pick your
starting point.

You don’t need everything defined to get started. Most projects begin with a discovery sprint and move to whichever model fits best.

Three ways to start, each with a clear scope and no surprises in the contract.

02 / 03

Fixed-scope project

Deadlines and deliverables set before we start.

What you get

  • Scope, milestones and acceptance criteria in writing
  • Delivery in stages
  • A demo every cycle
  • Scope changes agreed in writing before we build them
  • Documentation and handoff

When it makes sense

  • The problem is well understood (often after a discovery sprint) and you want predictable timing and deliverables

03 / 03

Dedicated team

Ongoing engineering capacity without building a team from scratch.

What you get

  • A monthly squad that works on your roadmap
  • Roles matched to your needs
  • Direct communication with your team
  • Team size adjusted with advance notice

When it makes sense

  • An evolving product
  • A long roadmap
  • An in-house team that needs extra capacity in a compatible time zone

From first call
to go-live.

  1. First call

    A call to understand your business, your problem and your timeline. We sign an NDA first if you’d like.

  2. Discovery

    Two weeks working together to define scope, architecture, estimate and roadmap.

  3. Proposal and contract

    You get a proposal with scope and timeline. Contracts for international clients are in English.

  4. Development

    Short cycles, a demo every cycle, continuous QA and a staging environment for you to review.

  5. Go-live

    Launch checklist, release and close monitoring in the first days.

  6. Support and evolution

    Support and improvements after launch, in the model that suits you.

We work
on your clock.

Our team is in Brazil, 1 to 2 hours ahead of the US East Coast (Brazil doesn’t change its clocks, so the gap shifts with US daylight saving time). That means meetings during your workday, same-day answers and no waiting overnight.

We work in the channel you already use. You get a demo every cycle and a written summary every week.

  • Slack
  • Teams
  • Email
  • WhatsApp

As a client, you also get access to our client portal: invoices, project progress and support in one place.

What we put
in writing.

NDA
We sign an NDA before the first scoping conversation if you prefer.
Code and IP
The code and the project’s intellectual property are yours. The assignment is explicit and written into the contract.
English contract
For international clients, the contract (MSA and SOW) is in English.
Time zone
Time-zone overlap with the US and Europe agreed at the start of the project.
Data
Privacy practices built around LGPD and GDPR.
Acceptance
Acceptance criteria written into the scope before development starts.
