Zonos, a leader in cross-border eCommerce solutions, found themselves stretched. Core teams were focused on major product initiatives, but internal platforms and legacy systems still needed love. Hiring a new team for short-term, non-core systems didn’t make strategic sense. What they needed was flexible, elite augmentation—engineers who could plug in and go.
We embedded seasoned developers who immediately got to work. From internal dashboards to backend services, our engineers wrote clean code, stabilized brittle logic, and helped manage the full lifecycle of applications Zonos depended on but didn’t want to staff for. We operated within their stack, followed their rhythms, and proactively flagged issues before they became problems. For Zonos, it felt like we’d always been there.
• Embedded support for key systems with zero onboarding friction • Stabilized and shipped across several legacy codebases • Long-term engagement—14+ months of consistent contribution • Allowed Zonos to avoid permanent hires for temporary needs • Reduced team strain while improving system performance and feature velocity This is what real augmentation looks like—hands-on, high-output, low-noise.
“The CONFLICT team integrated cleanly and delivered from day one. They stabilized systems we didn’t have bandwidth for and kept things running like clockwork. It’s the kind of staff aug you wish you always had.” — Senior Engineering Manager at Zonos Through friction, we engineered team velocity.
