The right expertise, exactly where you need it
Some challenges are not solved by a project or a managed service contract. A major transformation that needs deep internal involvement. A platform your team has not worked with before. A period of high demand where your internal capacity simply is not enough. These situations call for an engineer who is genuinely part of your team — present, engaged, and accountable — not someone who dials in for a weekly call.
Embedded Engineering is not outsourcing. It is an extension of your team — a named Nomios engineer or architect, working inside your organisation, contributing to your roadmap, your projects, and your operational challenges as if they were your own employee. Backed by the full depth of the Nomios organisation behind them.
Classic outsourcing
- Anonymous resource pool, not named individuals
- Measured in tickets and SLAs
- Separate from your team and culture
- Focused on running existing operations
- Knowledge stays with the supplier
- Difficult to change or exit
Embedded engineering
- A named engineer or architect you choose
- Measured by contribution and outcomes
- Part of your team — present and engaged
- Drives change, transformation, and growth
- Knowledge transfers to your organisation
- Flexible engagement — scale up or down
Named individual or specialist skill — your choice
Two ways to bring Nomios expertise inside your organisation — depending on whether you need a specific person or a specific capability.
- You meet the engineer, you approve the match, and they join your organisation for the duration of the engagement. They attend your stand-ups, contribute to your planning, and build relationships with your team as a genuine colleague. • You select from a shortlist of Nomios engineers • Full-time or part-time — structured around your needs • Continuity — the same person for the duration • Available for cybersecurity and networking disciplines
- When you need a specific technical capability — an engineer certified on a particular platform, familiar with a specific protocol, or experienced in a specialist domain — we match on skill, not just availability. • Matched to your technology stack and challenge • Certified on the platforms you operate • Examples: CCIE, CISSP, OSCP, vendor-specific certs • Backed by Nomios' full engineering community
A specific person, embedded in your team
The right certification for the right challenge
The situations we see most often
Embedded engineering is not the right answer for every challenge — but when the situation fits, nothing else comes close.
Transformation programmes
- A major platform migration, a zero trust rollout, or a network redesign that needs deep, sustained technical involvement from someone who is genuinely inside the programme.
Capability gaps in your team
- A technology your team has not worked with before, or a specialisation that does not justify a full-time hire but is too critical to leave uncovered.
Capacity pressure
- A period of high workload — a merger, a rapid expansion, or a backlog of critical projects — where your existing team needs another pair of expert hands for a defined period.
Bridging a recruitment gap
- A senior engineer or architect role that is taking longer to fill than expected — and where the work cannot wait for the right permanent hire to come along.
Knowledge transfer
- Bringing a new platform in-house and wanting an expert alongside your team as they learn — building internal capability that remains after the engagement ends.
Strategic architecture input
- An experienced architect embedded at a senior level — contributing to technology strategy, design decisions, and vendor conversations as a trusted internal voice.
What you can always expect
You approve the engineer
- We never place someone without your agreement. You meet the candidates, ask the technical questions, and choose who joins your team.
Backed by the full Nomios team
- Your embedded engineer is not alone. They have access to our full community of specialists — so when a challenge exceeds their individual expertise, they know exactly who to call.
Flexible duration and scope
- Engagements can run from a few months to several years — and can scale up or down as your needs change. No rigid long-term contracts that outlast the need.
Knowledge stays with you
- Everything your embedded engineer builds, documents, and teaches becomes part of your organisation's capability — not locked inside a supplier's knowledge base.
Tell us what you need — we'll find the right person.
Describe the challenge, the technology, or the skill gap — and we will introduce you to the right Nomios engineer for the role.
