Overview
Individual Experts gives you rapid access to Scrums.com’s global pool of vetted engineers, deployed individually into your existing team. You manage them day to day exactly as you would an internal hire. Scrums.com handles vetting, contracting, onboarding, and HR.
This is the right shape when you have a working team and a specific gap — a stack, a seniority level, or extra capacity.
Choose a different shape when you need a whole delivery unit (Dedicated Teams) or executive leadership (CXO Network).
How It Works
- Define your need — Create a vacancy or tell your Enablement Partner which role(s) you need, the required tech stack, seniority level, and start date
- Receive a shortlist — Scrums.com provides a curated shortlist of matching candidates immediately after you have created a vacancy
- Select your hire(s) — Review profiles and confirm your selection by requesting a meet and greet interview
- Onboarding — Scrums.com handles contracting and HR; the engineer is ready to start within 21 days or less depending on the availability of the resource you have selected
- Integration — The engineer joins your team’s tools, ceremonies, and workflows directly
- Management — You direct day-to-day work; Scrums.com provides performance support and can replace anyone who is not delivering
Core Roles
Software Engineer Responsible for feature development, bug fixing, and technical implementation. Engineers work within the client’s sprint cadence, committing to backlog items and participating in code reviews, stand-ups, and retrospectives.
QA Engineer Responsible for test planning, execution (manual and automated), regression coverage, and release validation. Works closely with engineers and product managers to define acceptance criteria and prevent defects from reaching production.
DevOps Engineer Responsible for CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, deployment automation, and operational reliability. Ensures that the build, test, and release process is fast, stable, and observable.
Product Manager Responsible for backlog prioritisation, requirements definition, roadmap alignment, and stakeholder communication. Acts as the bridge between business goals and engineering execution.
Product Designer Responsible for UX/UI design, prototyping, design system maintenance, and user research. Works closely with engineers to ensure design intent is preserved through implementation.
Data Engineer Responsible for data pipelines, analytics infrastructure, ETL processes, and data platform optimisation. Enables data-driven product decisions and supports AI/ML initiatives.
If a Scrums.com team member is not meeting delivery standards, raise the concern with your Enablement Partner. Scrums.com guarantees a replacement at no additional cost. The replacement process typically takes 15–20 business days and is handled without disruption to ongoing sprints where possible.
