Production-ready engineering for Bay Area startups and enterprises: MVPs, platform scaling, legacy modernization, AI productization and staff augmentation, led from San Jose.
Senior engineering for companies that need to ship — without Bay Area agency rates.
From our San Jose office NHZ Global works with startups and established companies across Silicon Valley and the Bay Area — San Francisco, Oakland, Palo Alto, Mountain View, Fremont and the Peninsula. We take products from prototype to production, scale platforms that have outgrown their architecture, modernize legacy systems without downtime, and add senior engineering capacity to teams under delivery pressure.
TypeScript/React/Next.js, Node.js, Python, Go and .NET; PostgreSQL, MySQL and Redis; Kafka and event-driven architectures; Docker, Kubernetes and Terraform on AWS and Azure; Flutter, Swift and Kotlin for mobile. We are pragmatic about tools and rigorous about testing, security and operability.
| Engagement | USD |
|---|---|
| Embedded senior engineer (monthly) | $7,500–$12,000 |
| Squad of 4 with lead (monthly) | $28,000–$42,000 |
| Fixed-price MVP / phase one | $60,000–$200,000+ |
| Architecture or scaling review | $6,000–$18,000 |
Typically within two to three weeks of a signed statement of work, with a two-week onboarding playbook so the first sprint is productive.

Yes — NDAs, IP assignment and US contracts as standard, with code living in your repositories from day one.
Yes. We are based in San Jose and meet across the Bay Area by appointment.
Projects where we've delivered this kind of work.
Local government NHZ Global supplied and customised a mobile device management platform that lets a London borough council's IT team lock down, configure and support frontline Android devices from one console — later licensed to a second borough.
Local government / passenger transport Councils run hundreds of daily home-to-school journeys for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Sendtra gives the transport office one place to plan routes, allocate drivers and passenger assistants, and see every journey happening — with a driver app that replaces paper run sheets.
Trading & distribution Al Shahama Trading replaced spreadsheets and WhatsApp threads with a CRM built around the way their sales team actually works — from first enquiry to quotation to order — hosted and supported by NHZ Global on a monthly plan.
