Managed & Dedicated Teams
A stable team that works as an extension of your own — not a rotating cast of contractors. Managed from Vancouver, with engineers who overlap your working hours as needed.
A stable team embedded in your product for the long run. You set direction; we bring the engineering — the same people, sprint over sprint, not a rotating cast of contractors. Starting from $65 CAD/hr.
Senior capacity at sustainable rates, managed from Vancouver, with engineers who overlap your working hours as needed — not a timezone-shifted handoff you find out about the next morning. Starting from $65 CAD/hr.
A team is only as good as how it's run. We own sprint planning, code review, and progress reporting, so you get shipped outcomes to review — not a roster of contractors you have to manage yourself.
For well-scoped work: a defined scope, a firm quote, a delivery date. Best when predictability matters more than flexibility.
Most offshore development goes wrong in the same way: you hire capacity, not a team. Tickets go out, work comes back the next morning, nobody owns the architecture, and six months in you are managing a rotating cast of contractors instead of shipping product. Pacifiq Labs is built to be the opposite of that. We are a Vancouver, Canada engineering firm with more than a decade of production experience, and we run dedicated offshore teams the way an in-house team actually works — the same senior engineers, on your hours, accountable for outcomes.
Being based in Vancouver matters more than it sounds. For Canadian companies, we are a local partner in your timezone, your business culture, and your working day — not a handoff to the other side of the world. For US and international clients, you get senior offshore capacity managed to North American standards on Pacific Time, with engineers who overlap your working hours — some or all of the day, as the work needs — so standups, code reviews, and quick questions happen during your day. "Offshore" should mean sustainable rates and senior talent, not a communication gap you pay for in rework.
AI has already absorbed the routine work offshore teams once competed on — boilerplate, simple CRUD, basic bug fixes. What it has not replaced is senior judgment: system architecture, security, performance, business context, and the discipline to review what AI generates before it reaches production. That is the work our engineers do. When you bring us a problem, we want the business goal behind it, not just a backlog to burn down. The result is software you can build a company on, delivered at a dedicated offshore development team's rates.
A team is only as good as how it is run. We own sprint planning, code review, and progress reporting, so what you receive is shipped, reviewed outcomes — not a group of people you now have to manage yourself. Engagements start from $65 CAD per hour for senior engineers, and whether you need an open-ended dedicated team or a fixed-price contract for well-scoped work, a team can typically be scoped and ramped within two to three weeks.
If you are looking for a dedicated or offshore development team in Canada — or a Vancouver-based partner to extend a US or international team — we would be glad to talk through what you are building. See the case studies below, or start a conversation.
AI has already commoditized the routine work offshore teams used to win on — boilerplate, basic CRUD, simple bug fixes. What hasn’t changed is the need for senior judgment: architecture, security, business context, and reviewing what AI generates before it ships. That’s the work we do. Give us the business problem, not just the Jira tickets.
Craftsman, SimpleSpace, and The Storefront were all built by senior engineers working this way — embedded, accountable, and shipping every week.
A dedicated offshore development team is a stable group of engineers who work exclusively on your product as an extension of your own staff, rather than a rotating pool of contractors picked up per task. At Pacifiq Labs the team is managed from Vancouver, Canada, works on your hours, and stays with you sprint over sprint, so context and quality compound instead of resetting with every new ticket.
We are based in Vancouver, British Columbia, and manage every engagement from here. We work with Canadian companies as a local, same-timezone partner, and with US and international clients who want senior offshore capacity managed to North American standards. Our engineers overlap your working hours — some or all of the day, depending on what the project needs — and delivery, code review, and reporting are coordinated on Pacific Time.
Our dedicated and offshore engagements start from $65 CAD per hour for senior engineers, with full managed delivery included — sprint planning, code review, and progress reporting. For well-scoped work we also offer fixed-price contracts with a defined scope, firm quote, and delivery date. The right model depends on how much predictability versus flexibility you need.
Commodity offshore used to win on cheap, routine work — boilerplate, basic CRUD, simple fixes. AI has largely commoditized that. What has not changed is the need for senior judgment: architecture, security, business context, and reviewing what AI generates before it ships. We staff senior engineers who do that work and manage them for outcomes, not a roster of contractors you have to supervise yourself.
A team can typically be scoped and ramped within two to three weeks. We manage from Vancouver on Pacific Time, and our engineers overlap your working hours — some or all of the day, depending on what the project needs — so standups, reviews, and quick questions happen during your day rather than as an overnight handoff you discover the next morning.
