Build with us
like you'd build in-house.

Hire hybrid app developers who join your team, your repo, and your standups — backed by a 44-engineer hybrid organization that maintains your Apache Cordova / PhoneGap apps, optimizes WebView performance, ships hot-fixes for unsupported Cordova plugins, and ports your hybrid app to Capacitor or Flutter/RN when you're ready to leave the legacy stack.

On your team, day 1

Engineers join your Slack, your Jira, your sprint board. No layers, no PM filter — they pair with your hybrid team like senior in-house hires.

Direct git access

They open PRs straight into your repo. You see every commit, every screen, every test, every release branch.

You manage the work

You set product priorities and sprint goals. We handle hiring, retention, payroll, benefits, upskilling, and laptops.

Hiring Process

From "we need a hybrid app dev"
to onboarded — in 2 weeks.

4-step process pulled straight from how we work. 48 hours to first profile. 2 weeks to a hybrid developer joining your standup.

01
Day 1-2

Requirement Analysis

We begin by understanding your business goals, technical requirements, project scope, and timelines to ensure the right hybrid development approach for your team.

02
Day 3-5

Choose a Resource

Based on your needs, we shortlist and recommend the most suitable hybrid developers with relevant experience and skill sets — 3-5 profiles in 48 hours.

03
Day 6-10

Start an Interview

Interview the selected hybrid developers to assess their technical expertise, communication skills, and project fit before final selection. Live coding, system-design — your call.

04
Day 11-14

Onboarding

Once approved, the developer is onboarded quickly and starts working as part of your team with complete transparency and regular updates. First PR by day 14.

Client Voices

What companies say
about hiring from us.

"
★★★★★

We had a 9-year-old PhoneGap app that stopped building on Xcode 15. Three agencies told us to rewrite from scratch. WebSenor migrated to Capacitor in 8 weeks without a single feature regression.

VI
VP IT, enterprise services co
"
★★★★★

Our hybrid app's WebView took 4.2 seconds to load on cold-start. Their performance engineer brought it to 1.1 seconds. App Store rating climbed 0.8.

HM
Head of Mobile, retailer
"
★★★★★

Cordova plugin maintenance is a niche skill. WebSenor's lead has been doing it for a decade and it shows — our app still ships on the latest iOS and Android.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need
to know before hiring.

Should I migrate off Cordova / PhoneGap?
Probably yes, but not always urgently. Capacitor is the natural successor (same WebView model, modern toolchain). We help you decide: phased Capacitor migration if your JS app is reasonable; full Flutter/RN rewrite if your UX needs a refresh anyway. Our discovery call gives you a written recommendation — free.
Can you maintain my Cordova app if no one else will?
Yes. We have engineers who've been writing and forking Cordova plugins for 10+ years. We fix App Store rejections, port plugins to new iOS/Android APIs, and keep your build green on the latest Xcode + AGP.
What's the typical migration path?
Cordova → Capacitor is the lowest-risk: keeps your JS/web code, swaps the native shell and plugins. Cordova → Flutter / RN is a bigger rewrite but pays back in performance + DX. We map dependencies and write the migration plan in week 1.
What does the 14-day SLA actually mean?
From discovery (day 1) to a hybrid app engineer shipping their first PR or migration spike by day 14.
How does the replacement guarantee work?
5 business days notice, 2-3 replacement profiles within 48 hours.
Do you write custom Cordova plugins?
Yes. Objective-C, Swift, Java, Kotlin — we author plugins for biometrics, BLE, custom hardware, In-App Purchase, and one-off native APIs. We also fork + maintain unmaintained community plugins.
What about IP, NDAs, and source code?
100% source code authorization. All custom plugins authored by us are assigned to you. Standard MSA.
How do you vet hybrid developers?
5 steps: resume + portfolio (real Cordova apps, ideally migrations), technical screen with our hybrid lead, live coding test (90 min) debugging a Cordova plugin issue + a WebView CSP problem, system-design round on migration strategy, culture-fit + references.
