Tired of working hard on it alone? Let us help you. Bring in a vetted specialist for a defined scope of work — no long procurement cycle, no full-time headcount. Pick a discipline below, tell us what you need done, and we'll match you with someone who has done it before.

Engagement models

Hire the way that fits the work.

Every specialist above is available under four commercial models. Pick one when you submit a request, or tell us the problem and we'll recommend the fit. All models include a named point of contact, weekly written progress notes, and the option to switch model as the work evolves.

Hourly

Pay only for hours worked. Best for short, well-bounded tasks — a security review, a pipeline fix, an architecture session. Time is logged per task, billed in 15-minute increments, with a weekly timesheet you approve before invoicing. Minimum engagement of just 2–3 hours; unused hours roll over for 90 days.

Dedicated

One engineer, full-time, on your team. 40 hours a week in your time zone, your tools, your stand-ups, your Slack. You direct the work day to day; we handle contracts, payroll, and a replacement if the fit isn't right. Fixed monthly rate, 30-day notice either way. Ideal for multi-month builds and long-running programmes.

Monthly retainer

A reserved block of hours every month. Typically 40, 80 or 120 hours, drawn on as needed across any discipline — pentest one week, Kubernetes the next. Guaranteed availability and response times, one predictable invoice, and a monthly report of hours used. Suited to teams that need ongoing security and platform support without a full-time hire.

Contract-to-hire

Try first, then bring them in-house. The specialist works on a dedicated or hourly basis for an agreed trial period — usually 3 to 6 months — after which you can offer a permanent role. A single conversion fee, agreed up front, and no restriction on making the offer. The lowest-risk way to grow a permanent security or platform team.

What every model includes. A written scope before work starts, a named Qcramai contact, weekly progress notes, NDA and IP assignment to you, and — for any security work — written authorization confirmed before a single request is sent. Rates depend on discipline and seniority; ask and we'll quote within one business day.

Specialists

Choose a discipline, then hit Hire.

Each request goes through a short scoping step — you share a description of the work and, if you have one, an RFP. We come back with a shortlist and rates.

Cyber Security Expert

Cyber Security Expert

Hands-on application security engineers who test your application, API, and infrastructure against real-world attack techniques — findings verified by hand, not just flagged.

Performance & Load Testing

Performance & Load Testing

Engineers who build k6, JMeter, and Gatling scenarios, run soak and spike tests, and trace latency and throughput bottlenecks back to a root cause.

Playwright & Selenium

Playwright & Selenium

Test automation specialists who build stable, CI-wired UI and end-to-end suites with reliable selectors and reporting your team can actually maintain.

Cloud Infra Expert

Cloud Infra Expert

Architects for AWS, Azure, and GCP who design, size, and harden the environment your workloads run on — delivered as reviewable infrastructure-as-code.

Web Application Auditor

Web Application Auditor

Reviewers who audit your web app against the OWASP Testing Guide and hand back prioritised, reproducible findings with concrete remediation guidance.

Infra & Monitor Expert

Infra & Monitor Expert

Specialists who wire up metrics, logs, traces, and actionable alerting — Grafana, Prometheus, Datadog, ELK — so problems surface as signals, not support tickets.

Office Infra Setup

Office Infra Setup

Engineers to plan and stand up office networking, Wi-Fi, identity, device management, and secure connectivity from scratch — cabling diagram to first login.

Cloud Solution

Cloud Solution

Solution architects who translate business requirements into a scalable, resilient, cost-aware cloud design — with a Well-Architected-style review to back it.

Kubernetes Expert

Kubernetes Expert

Operators who set up, secure, and tune Kubernetes clusters — ingress, autoscaling, RBAC, network policy, and GitOps delivery — for production, not just a demo.

Database Designer

Database Designer

Data modellers who choose the right engine and schema from real access patterns and plan migrations to minimize disruption, with restore-tested backups. Cutover timing depends on the workload and migration plan.

Technical Architecture

Technical Architecture

Architects who turn requirements into a system design — service boundaries, data flows, technology choices, and the trade-offs written down — before the first line of code.

DevOps Engineer

DevOps Engineer

Engineers who build the pipeline behind the release — CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, containers, and automated deploys with rollback — so shipping is boring.
