FAQS

How long does it actually take to hire a senior software developer?

The industry average is 4.2 months. That covers sourcing, screening, interviewing, offer negotiation, and notice periods. It does not cover onboarding, or the additional 30 to 90 days before a new hire reaches meaningful productivity. For a company with a build on a deadline, that timeline is not a process problem — it is a strategic risk. Cherry Blossom Tech eliminates it. The team is already assembled, already senior, and ready to begin.

What is the difference between a dev agency and staff augmentation?

Staff augmentation means adding individual contractors to your existing team — sourced separately, onboarded independently, with no prior working relationship with each other or with your product. You coordinate them. You absorb the alignment cost. A development agency brings a pre-formed team with its own structure, standards, and dynamic. Cherry Blossom Tech works this way: the team arrives as a unit, takes technical ownership of the build, and delivers without requiring management overhead on your side.

When does it make sense to bring in an external dev team instead of hiring?

When the build has a defined scope and a real deadline, when the skill set required is broader than one or two hires can cover, or when the risk of a mis-hire is too high for the current stage — an external senior team is the faster, lower-risk path. Internal hiring makes sense when the work is open-ended, highly proprietary, and the company has the runway to wait. If the build cannot wait, the hiring cycle cannot either.

How much does a senior development team engagement cost?

Project engagements at Cherry Blossom Tech range from $20,000 to $200,000. The lower end covers focused, scoped builds with a defined deliverable. The upper end reflects complex product builds — multiple sprint cycles, architecture decisions, production infrastructure — where senior technical leadership is the primary variable. Monthly retainers for ongoing development support start from $3,000. The right structure depends on whether the build has a defined endpoint or is ongoing. The scoping call is where that gets established.
