Product Engineering built for HR Tech companies
What is Product Engineering?
We treat engineering as a product function, not a ticket-closing factory. For HR Tech companies, this means navigating GDPR, EEOC guidelines (US) while shipping fast.
Who needs Product Engineering for HR Tech?
- Disconnected ATS, payroll and HRIS systems
- Compliance with multi-jurisdiction labor laws
- Low employee adoption of internal HR tools
- Engineering executing roadmaps with no product input
- Features shipped that customers never asked for

HR software must serve both compliance teams and the employees who actually have to use it daily.

Timeline, investment & compliance
Typical timeline
Ongoing, quarterly engagement
Typical investment
$20,000 - $90,000 per month
Product Engineering engagements in this combination typically need to account for:
- GDPR
- EEOC guidelines (US)
- Local labor law compliance
- SOC 2 for HR data handling
Our Approach
The hardest part of HR Tech work is rarely the feature list — it's disconnected ATS, payroll and HRIS systems while staying inside GDPR. We structure sprints and code review around that constraint rather than treating compliance as a final pass.
