Pick whichever fits how your team actually works.
For a specific bug fix or small feature addition.
Roughly 20 hours a week, good for ongoing maintenance alongside your existing team.
A dedicated developer working your hours, functioning as part of your own team.
Four steps, usually a few days from first call to first day.
A quick call about your application, what state the codebase is in, and how long you expect to need help. No lengthy intake form, just a conversation.
Usually within a few days, not weeks. We're matching from developers we already know and have worked with, not starting a search from scratch.
A short call or technical screen with the actual developer. If it's not the right fit, we find someone else, no extra cost to you.
Working your hours if needed, reporting into your existing tools and project setup, not a separate process on top of what you already use.
Every CodeIgniter developer we place has real experience maintaining and extending existing applications, not just spinning up a fresh install. Comfortable working in an older codebase without a full rewrite.
Familiar with the version differences between CodeIgniter 3 and 4 that trip up developers who've only worked with one or the other. If your application needs a security patch, a PHP version upgrade, or a new feature bolted onto years-old code, that's exactly the kind of work we match for.
It happens sometimes, and it's not a big deal when it does. If a developer isn't working out, tell us and we'll bring in a replacement, at no additional cost during the transition. You're not locked into a bad match for the rest of the engagement.
Good fit for: Maintaining and extending existing CodeIgniter applications, PHP/framework version upgrades, security patches on older codebases, teams needing CodeIgniter coverage without a full outsourced rebuild.
What clients usually ask before hiring a CodeIgniter developer.
Tell us about your application and what state the codebase is in, and we'll match you with a developer who's already worked on real CodeIgniter projects.
