// the problem
Hiring in-house software developers in 2026 takes months.
Fierce competition
Every company is fighting for the same shrinking pool of senior software developers.
Months to hire
Internal recruiting cycles take 3–6 months to land a single permanent developer.
Hundreds of hours lost
Tech leadership burns out screening, interviewing, and onboarding candidates.
But you still have roadmaps to deliver and deadlines to meet.

Frequently asked questions
- What does NextGen Coding Company do?
- We're a NYC-based custom software development and staff augmentation company. We embed 100% U.S.-based senior engineers into your product team — full-stack, AI, QA, cloud, and data — or ship fixed-scope Solutions like AI call centers, ERPs, and tax platforms. Over 100 engagements shipped across 15+ industries.
- Are your engineers really 100% U.S.-based?
- Yes. Every engineer on every engagement is U.S.-based, no offshore substitution. Senior leadership and a meaningful percentage of our 75+ engineers are in the NYC metro for in-person work. Delivery runs on EST business hours by default.
- How much does it cost to hire NextGen?
- Monthly engagements: $16,000/mo for a single senior engineer, $32,000/mo for a two-engineer pod, $75,000/mo for a four-engineer enterprise pod with QA. Fixed-scope packages: $1,000 Discovery Sprint up to $100,000+ Enterprise Initiatives. Annual prepay saves 15%.
- How fast can you start?
- Most engagements start within 7-14 days of the scoping call. We keep a pre-vetted bench of 75+ U.S. engineers across every discipline so onboarding isn't gated by recruiting.
- What industries do you have experience in?
- 15+ industries with the deepest track record in financial services, healthcare, tax, legal, compliance, insurtech, manufacturing, and enterprise SaaS. Regulated, complex verticals where senior U.S. delivery matters.
- How is NextGen different from an offshore agency or a freelancer marketplace?
- Offshore agencies compete on rate; freelancer marketplaces compete on speed of hire. We compete on delivery quality — 100% U.S. talent, EST hours, in-person collaboration in NYC, a Delivery Manager on every engagement, and a 5.0 rating from named clients.
