A remote developer for
businesses across India.
Companies in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, Delhi and elsewhere hire UgeWorks the way they would hire a developer down the road: a call, a written scope, a preview link, a weekly check-in. The difference is the Chennai address and the absence of a metro agency's overhead.
Who hires remotely
Four kinds of company this is built for
A startup that needs a product built
Founders in Bengaluru or Hyderabad with a validated idea and no engineering team yet. An MVP in React Native and AWS in weeks, then iterations as users arrive.
A business that needs a site or app, not a department
A Pune manufacturer, a Mumbai consultancy, a Delhi clinic chain. A fixed-price build with a preview link, launched in your accounts, supported after.
A team that needs one more engineer
You have developers but not enough of them, or none with React Native or AWS serverless experience. Contract augmentation by the month, working inside your process and your repo.
An agency that needs a build partner
Design or marketing agencies anywhere in India that sell websites and apps and need someone to build them, white-label, reliably, without hiring.
The remote routine
What a week looks like
Remote work fails on vagueness and succeeds on rhythm. This is the rhythm.
Engagement models
Choose how you want to work
Fixed-price project
A written scope, a price and a timeline. Best for a defined website, store, app or MVP. Changes are scoped and priced separately so the original number holds.
Monthly retainer
A block of engineering time each month for a product that keeps evolving. Priority on your work, a running backlog you control, no re-quoting for every item.
Contract augmentation
Join your team for a defined period, in your tools, your stand-ups and your repo, as the React Native or AWS engineer you are missing.
White-label for agencies
You own the client relationship and the brand; the build is delivered to your spec under your name. Standard for agencies that sell what they do not build in-house.
Getting started
From enquiry to first commit
Send what you have
A brief, a deck, a Figma link, an existing codebase, or just a paragraph on WhatsApp or email.
A 30-minute call
Free. To understand the goal, the users and the constraints, and to say honestly whether this is a fit.
A written proposal within 24 hours
Scope, price, timeline, engagement model, and what you need to provide. For augmentation: availability, rate and start date.
Accounts and access
A GitHub repo in your organisation, AWS in your account, and a shared channel. First commit usually within the first week.
Where clients and enquiries come from
Anywhere in India
Same time zone, same working day, same GST invoice. The city is not a factor in how the project runs.
Questions
Frequently asked
How is a remote developer in Chennai different from an agency in my city?
You work with the engineer directly rather than through an account manager, the code lives in your repository from the first day, and you are not paying for a metro office and a sales team. The trade-off is that meetings are calls, which for software work has rarely been a disadvantage.
Can you work in our existing codebase and tools?
Yes. Contract augmentation means joining your GitHub or GitLab, your Jira or Linear, your Slack and your stand-ups. Code review and branching follow your conventions.
What time zone and hours do you keep?
IST, Monday to Saturday, 9am to 7pm. Since every Indian city is on the same clock, there is no overlap problem.
Do you sign an NDA and a contract?
Yes. Your NDA or a standard mutual one, and a written agreement covering scope, IP ownership (yours), payment terms and confidentiality, before work starts.
Do you invoice with GST?
Yes, with IGST for clients outside Tamil Nadu. Payment by bank transfer or UPI against each milestone or month.
What if we need more than one developer?
Say so at the start. For larger scopes UgeWorks brings in collaborators it has worked with before, under the same single point of contact, and says so in the proposal rather than pretending to be bigger than it is.
