An engineer in your team, on your schedule
You decide the role, the days and the duration. The engineer works in your processes and tools, and your project lead sets the priorities.
-
01
One to five days a week
From one day a week for ongoing verification or documentation work to full time during a qualification campaign or a transfer to production.
-

Questions
Who is the engineer?
The engineer is Filip Jaromczyk; for electronics or a second role a partner engineer from our network joins.
Can we start with one or two days a week?
Yes. Many engagements start with one or two days a week and grow during a qualification campaign or a verification phase.
Who sets the priorities?
Your project lead. The engineer works on your tasks in your team, and Techkrates remains the contact for the contract and for technical questions.
Can the work become a defined project?
Yes. When a work package is clear, for example a test stand or a complete qualification, we can quote it as a project with a fixed price and a fixed delivery date.
