Talent strategy
Advisory for engineering and people leaders: workforce planning, capability-gap analysis and market insight, from a team that has built software for 25 years.
When you’d reach for this
Hiring decisions are easier when they sit inside a plan. If you are scaling, restructuring or entering a new market, the question is not just who to hire next - it is what capability you will need, when, and whether to build or buy it.
Planning a scale-up
You are growing and need a workforce plan, not a reactive series of one-off hires.
A capability gap
You suspect the team is missing skills the roadmap will demand, and want it mapped.
Build, buy or borrow
You are weighing permanent hiring against augmentation or a dedicated team, and want a clear-eyed view.
What you get
Workforce planning
A view of the roles and skills your roadmap needs, and the sequence to bring them on.
Capability-gap analysis
An honest map of where the team is strong and where it is exposed.
Market insight
What talent costs, where it is, and what it takes to attract and keep it.
A partnership, not a one-off
Ongoing counsel as the plan meets reality, not a report that gathers dust.
We’ve been on your side of the table.
Pype was born inside Realm Digital, a 25-year-old engineering consultancy. We’ve owned the deadlines and hired the engineers ourselves - so we know what good looks like, and we vet for it.
That’s the difference between a CV-matching service and a technical partner.
Common questions
Is this a standalone service or tied to hiring? +
It can be either. Some clients take advisory on its own; for others it shapes the augmentation, permanent or team work that follows. There is no obligation to hire through us.
Who is this for? +
Engineering leaders, CTOs and people teams making decisions about how to build and structure technical capability.
