NederlandsOne senior, an interim lead, or Team-as-a-Service.
A KODIFY expert who works alongside your engineers, guides and strengthens your team. We place experienced Data & AI specialists for engagements from one day a week to a fully embedded team. Experts who hit the ground running, share knowledge and make an impact from day one.
Not a loose hire, but the strength of a complete team that comes with them.
Secondment at KODIFY is not a standard marketplace model. Every expert we place is part of our permanent team and works according to the same quality standards, tooling and architecture principles. You don't just bring in a specialist — you benefit from the knowledge and experience of the entire KODIFY team.
Whether you need an experienced Data Engineer for a Fabric migration, temporary reinforcement for your data team, or a fully integrated team for a Copilot roll-out, we deliver professionals with proven experience building and implementing solutions in production environments.
You work directly with the specialist assigned to your project. Clear agreements, fixed points of contact and professionals who take responsibility from start to delivery.
A complete team, at your table.
A dedicated team that brings together continuity, collaboration and expertise.
- Delivery Lead Sprint management and quality control.
- Solution Architect Architecture and integration design.
- Data / Platform Engineer Pipelines, data models and foundation.
- AI / ML Engineer LLM applications, RAG and agents.
- Tester / QA Engineer Test automation and quality assurance.
You sign one agreement with KODIFY, not five separate contracts with freelancers. We manage capacity, replacement and quality.
The squad members have delivered together before. No forming/storming — speed from week one.
Need more AI engineering temporarily? We shift within the team. Less work next sprint? Then lower costs too.
The squad works in your cadence, your board, your definition of done. We provide the people, you keep control.
A permanent KODIFY colleague, not a marketplace CV.
Our experts already work within our organisation. Same architecture principles, same toolbox, same standards. The person sits with you; the backing of the entire team comes along. That also means the senior on the intake is the senior on your project.
We work pragmatically and calmly: we deliver people who have demonstrably built in production, from Microsoft Fabric and Azure OpenAI to Databricks and MLOps, and we only send them to you if we'd want to work with that person ourselves.
Who will be sitting next to you?
Ten specialisations, one pool. For every role below we have at least three senior experts available — each with demonstrable production experience.
AI Engineer
LLM applications, RAG pipelines, agents and function calling — production, not POC.
Data Engineer
Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, Snowflake, Airflow. Pipelines that don't quietly fail.
ML Engineer
Classic ML pipelines, MLOps, monitoring and retraining — from training to deployment.
Cloud / Platform Engineer
Azure or AWS, IaC with Terraform, Kubernetes and CI/CD for data & AI workloads.
Solution Architect
Data & AI architecture — landscape design, integrations, governance from day one.
Data Scientist
Forecasting, optimisation, NLP. Models that answer a real business question.
Integration Engineer
CRM, ERP, HRM and custom systems — connections that actually make data flow.
Tech Lead AI
Directs your AI squad, reviews code and translates roadmap into sprint work.
Interim Head of Data / CDO
Temporary solution or permanent delay — we fill the seat with direction and leadership.
AI Strategy Consultant
Roadmaps, business cases and use-case portfolios — pragmatic, with numbers.
Three ways to work with us
From one expert in your sprint to a complete squad at your table — we adapt the collaboration to your organisation's phase.
Secondment — one expert
A senior KODIFY specialist who works on assignment for you. Fully embedded in your team, with the backing of our entire team in the background.
- Senior Data or AI expert (9+ years)
- 1–5 days per week
- Minimum 3 months, max 24
- Weekly quality check by tech lead
- Replacement guarantee within 10 days
Interim leadership
An interim Head of Data, CDO or Tech Lead AI. Direction when you need it most — during a transformation, after a departure, or before the right permanent hire.
- Head of Data · CDO · Tech Lead AI
- Strategy, team and stakeholder management
- Including warm handover to successor
- 4 days p/w standard
- Monthly steering committee with partner
Team-as-a-Service
A KODIFY squad working under your product owner — Solution Architect, Data Engineers, AI Engineer and Delivery Lead. One SLA, one invoice, one team.
- 3–7 person squad, multidisciplinary
- One Delivery Lead as single point of contact
- Start within 4 weeks
- Quality standards guaranteed by KODIFY
- Scale up/down per sprint possible
From intake to start in two weeks.
We are fast because we've already fought the battle for the right person — our pool isn't on marketplaces, and our experts are already in-house.
Briefing & intake
A 45-minute conversation. We listen to the assignment, the team around it and the problem beneath the question.
Match within 5 days
We present 2–3 senior profiles with CV, availability and relevant production cases — not a list of 20.
Introduction
You talk with the candidate from your shortlist. Chemistry and substance. Only people who push back too.
Start assignment
Onboarding package on day one: laptop, accounts, principles. We ask your team to assign a buddy.
Quality assurance
Monthly review with you and the expert. When in doubt, immediate replacement, no lengthy procedure. Permanent tech lead in the background.
KODIFY secondment vs. the usual approach
Secondment has earned a bad reputation. We do it differently — and that's not in the marketing, but in the contract.
The usual approach
- A list of 20 CVs, all 'suitable'
- The senior on the intake became a mid-level on the project
- No back-up — the freelancer sits alone on an island
- Replacement takes weeks; your file gets lost
- Nobody reviews architecture, code or security
KODIFY Interim & Secondment
- 2–3 profiles, pre-screened for your stack and team
- Who you meet is who starts — enforced in the contract
- Weekly internal consultation with our tech lead — knowledge flows
- Replacement guarantee within 10 working days, no cost
- Code review, security check and architecture audit by KODIFY
From scattered data islands to one Fabric platform — embedded.
A Dutch logistics player with 1,800 employees had the roadmap ready, but lacked the capacity to build it. We started with one senior Data Engineer in week two, scaled to a squad of three and handed over neatly after seven months to a new permanent team lead.
No loose freelance construction: one SLA, weekly review, and a complete data platform layer in Microsoft Fabric now running in production — including the first two Copilot use cases on order data.
How quickly can someone start?
After the intake we deliver 2–3 suitable profiles within 5 working days. An introduction and start within two to three weeks is common — for urgent cases we arrange it faster.
What if the match doesn't work out?
No lengthy procedure. If in doubt within the first two weeks we replace at no cost. After that the agreed notice period applies, with our help to organise the handover.
Are experts onboarded by KODIFY?
Yes. Every expert receives an onboarding package with our architecture principles, security baseline and code review template. So you don't just get a person, but the KODIFY way of working.
Rates and contract forms?
Secondment on hourly basis with a monthly ceiling. Team-as-a-Service can also be fixed-fee per sprint or per quarter. For interim leadership we work with a day rate and a hard end date.
Do you also work with freelancers from your network?
Sometimes. Our preference is for permanent KODIFY colleagues (≈80% of placements), but for scarce niches we bring in proven partners — always after our own technical screening and always under our SLA.
What about data residency and security?
EU-only by default. We sign DPA and NDA, use your tenant and your devices where that is the norm, and all our experts are onboarded through a standardised security track.
Build faster, with the right professional beside you.
A 30-minute conversation with our partner. You tell us what you need; we come back within five days with two to three profiles and a plan.
