GitLab Consulting Services
Outsource senior, on-shore GitLab developers
Outsourced GitLab DevOps services to plan, create, verify, package, release, configure, monitor, and secure software. We approach all our engagements through a DevOps lens, and our resources will have no trouble integrating into your team and maintaining cohesion throughout the entire development lifecycle.
GitLab Services You Can Trust
We’re engineers, not recruiters who understand that successful software development projects are agile ones. We know exactly what skill sets are needed to effortlessly blend development and operations, and we take that into account when curating your team.
Other reasons to partner with ProDev for GitLab development include:
Our team of on-shore Gitlab engineers are located in the United States and Canada, ensuring seamless communication and unmatched reliability.
Get the right type of staffing you need at each phase of your project. Finished with development? Swap for a Software Development Engineer in test (SDET) instead.
If you’re not completely satisfied with your GitLab developer, consultant, or any resource, within the first 40 hours, let them go and we won’t charge you a cent.
Get access to more than just GitLab DevOps talent. We staff for Software Development, Data Engineering, Q/A, Project Management, UI/UX Design, and Business Analyst positions too.
We offer bi-weekly invoicing and postpaid billing for most clients, ensuring pay-as-you-go flexibility. Plus, we include detailed timesheet reports.
We match your pace, but you drive the engagement with the control to order a zero-notice stand-down or termination.
Our GitLab Development and Consulting Services
Our GitLab engineers are well-versed in using DevOps tools to construct, verify, and deploy applications seamlessly. Whether you need Source Code Management (SCM) or CI/CD pipeline implementation, or efficient project planning and management we’ve got you covered.
Our GitLab services include but are not limited to
Source Code Management
Our developers can help you manage your codebase using GitLab’s robust source control capabilities, ensuring your code is organized, version-controlled, and accessible. We’ll assist in setting up a collaborative coding environment, and guide you in implementing effective branching strategies, enabling your team to work on different features or fixes simultaneously without disrupting the main codebase.
CI/CD Implementation
Our developers leverage GitLab’s powerful CI/CD tools to streamline your development process. We can set up automated pipelines to integrate changes and deliver quality code faster. With our expertise, you’ll get a seamless flow from integration to deployment, ensuring that your software is always release-ready. We also help in automating testing procedures, allowing for quicker detection and resolution of bugs or issues, thereby enhancing the overall quality of your application.
Project Planning & Management
Our engineers help optimize project workflows using GitLab’s comprehensive project management tools. From issue tracking to task assignment, we’ll assist you in organizing and managing your development work effectively. We can guide you in setting up milestones and sprints, helping your team stay focused and aligned with project goals. Additionally, we can help you leverage GitLab’s built-in Kanban boards for visual project management, enabling efficient tracking of task progress.
How Our Outsourced GitLab Development Services Work
Whether you’re initiating a new DevOps project, need help with intricate CI/CD pipeline setups, or are looking to expedite your application’s deployment process, we’re ready to assist. From staffing a single engineer to assembling a fully-equipped DevOps team, we offer three flexible engagement models to meet your specific GitLab needs.
GitLab Staff Augmentation Services
Best when managing the project in-house and combining our resources with internal staff
Whether you’re looking to strictly hire developers and/or need pre/post-dev support, our staff augmentation services are designed to help you temporarily expand your team quickly and reliably. We’ll work with your project managers to get you GitLab support plus any QA or other talent needed to take your project to the finish line.
GitLab Software Development Outsourcing
Best if you need project management support in addition to staff augmentation services
You may have limited or potentially no internal resources to assist with your development project. When you partner with us for outsourced GitLab consulting services, not only do you get access to a complete software development team, we’ll manage the entire project from start to finish.
Project Ideation and Product Design
Best if you’re not ready for development yet and need some help getting your project started
If you have an idea for a software application, but you need guidance getting it off the ground, let us support you with product ideation and design services. Once complete, you can take your project and get development launched, or you can get started right away with staff that’s already familiar with your project.
Our 5-Step Process
Regardless of the engagement model you’re interested in, every ProDev partnership follows a 5-Step Process
Request a discovery call and we’ll schedule time to talk through your project, your goals, and your staff augmentation needs.
The Master Services Agreement lays a foundation for the relationship and enables the candidate-screening process – it in no way obligates you to continue nor is there any payment due at this stage.
We will match candidates to your needs and present them to you – or if you like we can just make what we think is the best assignment and proceed.
Once the team is defined, one resource or several, we capture the team details and effort scope in an SOW. This simple and short document attaches to the MSA and we can add SOW’s downstream as needed.
Next up is a kickoff call and then the magic starts to happen. We absolutely do not simply throw bodies over the wall – we stay engaged closely with you as the work proceeds through regular communication and reporting. You get to see and test deliverables as they evolve.
Common Questions About GitLab Development Services
For clients looking to build their GitLab development team over time, we are open to conversion conversations after a resource has been engaged for at least one year.
Good GitLab developers are busy developers, so it might take us up to 1-2 weeks to present candidates; that said, we work in a dynamic landscape and sometimes we can deploy within a few days.
Our GitLab developers remotely telecommute, but typically they are willing to meet in person to launch an engagement and to participate in periodic on-site reviews.
Yes, our GitLab developers will adopt a schedule friendly to your teams and offices.
In addition to DevOps, we can staff for Software Development, Project Management, and QA positions.
