A Solution Architect who works alongside AI from day one

Hiring a Solution Architect from RG INSYS is different from a typical staffing engagement. Every engineer on our bench uses Claude Code, Cursor IDE, and GitHub Copilot daily. That is not a sales line, it is a hard requirement on day one of the contract.

For you that means three things. Faster shipping: the AI handles the boilerplate so the engineer focuses on architecture, edge cases, and your domain. Lower cost: you get senior India-based engineers at the rate of UK or US juniors. Higher quality: AI-generated tests run on every PR before human review.

If the engineer is not the right fit in the first 2 weeks you pay nothing for the trial period and we replace them at no cost. NDAs are signed before any disclosure and full IP is assigned to you, the code lives in your repos under your accounts.

FAQ

Common questions about hiring a Solution Architect

How quickly can a Solution Architect start?

For architect-grade roles we send a 2 to 3 person shortlist within 3 to 5 business days. Engagement usually starts within 1 to 2 weeks.

Can we hire an architect just for a review, not ongoing?

Yes. Two common patterns: a 2-week paid architecture audit (fixed-price), or hourly engagements for RFC reviews and ad-hoc design support.

Do your architects write code, or just diagrams?

Both. Our architects are hands-on enough to prototype the hard parts and write reference implementations. We do not believe in PowerPoint-only architects.

Can the Solution Architect work in our timezone?

Yes. Engineers commit to a flexible 8 hour day with at least 4 hours overlap with your team. UK, EU, US East/West, UAE, and Australia are all supported.

Do you replace the engineer if it's not a fit?

Yes. The first 2 weeks are a free trial. If you decide not to continue, you pay nothing for the trial and we replace the engineer at no cost.

Who owns the diagrams, ADRs, and reports?

You do. All architecture artifacts are assigned to you on payment and lodged in your repository or knowledge base. We do not retain copies after handover.
