Offshore software engineering
A dedicated engineering team in your time zone — at a fraction of the cost.
Missan builds software for businesses in the US, UK, Australia, Canada and India: dedicated pods, fixed-scope projects and staff augmentation. Product and SaaS engineering under NDA with full IP assignment, delivered by a 20+ year technology company.
Engagement models
Three ways to add engineering muscle.
Choose the shape that fits your stage. Start with one and move between them as your needs change.
Dedicated pod
A ring-fenced team — engineers, QA and a lead — that works only on your roadmap, in your time zone, as a true extension of your business. You direct the work; we run the pod.
- Stable, long-term team
- Reports into your roadmap
- Scales up or down with you
Project delivery
A defined scope, delivered to a fixed outcome. Ideal when you have a clear brief — an MVP, a module, a migration — and want it built, tested and handed over.
- Clear scope & milestones
- Fixed outcome
- Built, tested, handed over
Staff augmentation
Drop vetted engineers into your existing team to add velocity or a specific skill. They work in your tools, your standards and your sprint cadence.
- Vetted, ready engineers
- Slot into your team
- Your tools & process
What we build
From MVP to production product teams.
Whether you are validating an idea or scaling a platform, we bring the engineering to match the stage you are at.
Product & SaaS engineering
From MVP to production multi-tenant platforms — web apps, APIs, dashboards and the backend that holds it together.
Web & application development
Customer portals, internal tools and line-of-business applications built to last and built to maintain.
Integrations & automation
Connect your systems — payments, CRM, ERP, third-party APIs — and remove the manual glue between them.
Cloud & DevOps
CI/CD pipelines, containerised deployments and cloud infrastructure that ships reliably and scales sensibly.
Tech stack
Modern, maintainable, proven in production.
We pick tools for longevity and team availability, not novelty. The result is software your own engineers can pick up and maintain long after we have handed it over.
The offshore cost advantage
A dedicated pod typically costs a fraction of the equivalent in-house hire in the West — without compromising on engineering discipline. See the like-for-like numbers for yourself.
Calculate my savingNDA, IP & overlap
Your code, your IP, your hours — all protected.
Offshore should never mean losing control. We build the guarantees that matter into every engagement from day one, so you get the cost advantage without the trade-offs.
- Every engagement under NDA with full intellectual-property assignment
- All code, repositories and credentials belong to you from day one
- Meaningful daily overlap with US, UK, Australian and Canadian hours
- Your tools and cadence — Jira, Azure DevOps, GitHub, Slack, Teams
- Named engineers and a lead you work with directly, not a black box
- A 20+ year engineering company, not a marketplace of strangers
Full IP assignment, in writing
Everything we build is yours — code, repositories, documentation and credentials — assigned to you under NDA from the first commit, with nothing held hostage.

Straight answers
What teams ask before they build with us.
Who owns the code and IP we pay for?
You do — entirely. Every engagement runs under NDA with full intellectual-property assignment, and the code, repositories, documentation and credentials are yours from day one. We build it; you own it, with nothing held back.
How do you handle the time-zone difference?
We build meaningful daily overlap into the working day so you get live collaboration with US, UK, Australian and Canadian teams, not a 12-hour delay on every question. Stand-ups, reviews and planning happen in hours that work for you, with the rest of the day used to keep shipping.
Which engagement model should we choose?
A dedicated pod suits an ongoing roadmap and a stable team. Project delivery suits a clear, fixed scope. Staff augmentation suits adding velocity or a specific skill to a team you already have. We will recommend the right fit for your stage — and you can move between them as you grow.
How do you keep quality high offshore?
The same way good teams do anywhere: code review, automated testing, CI/CD, clear definitions of done and a named lead accountable for the work. You work in your own tools and standards, with full visibility into the repository and the board — never a black box.
What about the cost advantage — is it real?
Yes. An offshore pod typically costs a fraction of the equivalent in-house hire in the US, UK, Australia or Canada, without sacrificing engineering discipline. Our offshore-cost-calculator gives you an honest like-for-like comparison rather than a marketing figure.
Can a pod work alongside our AI automation projects?
Yes. Many clients pair a dedicated pod with our AI automation work — building the product and wiring AI agents and automations into it. The same engineering team can carry both, which keeps delivery joined-up.
