What We Do

We help startups and scaling companies hire the right developers, engineers, and tech leaders, not just those who look good on paper, but who will actually ship, scale, and stick around. Whether you’re building from scratch or backfilling after a hire-gone-wrong, we act as your embedded technical co-pilot to find the real deal.

Why We’re Different

We’re not a recruiting agency. We’re technical operators who’ve hired, led, and fired hundreds of developers, and we know the difference between “can code” and “can contribute.” An actual CTO screens every candidate. We dig into code, ask uncomfortable questions, and send only the ones we hire personally.

How It Works

  • We align with your business goals and team culture

  • We write job descriptions that attract doers, not posers

  • We source, vet, and technically screen all candidates

  • We sit in on interviews, lead technical assessments, and give you final recommendations

 

And if we didn’t hire them for Red Corner, you wouldn’t even see them.

Who It’s For

Founders and hiring managers who are:

 

  • Tired of résumé roulette

  • Not technical enough to confidently vet developers

  • Sick of paying recruiters who don’t understand code

  • Scaling fast and need technical firepower, not guesswork

We Don’t Find You Candidates — We Deliver Teammates.

Because anyone can send résumés. We send reinforcements.

Your Independent Technical Representative

We act as your technical fiduciary — safeguarding your interests, translating the jargon, and holding your development agency accountable every step of the way.

Why You Need
Representation

What We Do

Custom software development is a high-stakes investment, and most business leaders aren’t equipped to evaluate what’s being built, how it’s being built, or whether timelines and budgets are realistic. Development agencies often speak in complex, opaque language, and when no one is watching closely, quality can slip, costs can balloon, and delivery can drift.

 

Red Corner steps in as your independent technical representative. We don’t work for the agency, we work for you. Our role is to protect your business by ensuring technical decisions are sound, contracts are fair, and delivery stays on track.

From the moment you start conversations with a development partner, we act as your behind-the-scenes expert, like a lawyer, but for software.

Here’s how we support you:

 

  • Pre-Engagement: We review proposals, validate technical architecture, assess risks, and help you select the right partner.

  • Active Oversight: We attend stand-ups and check-ins, translate technical updates into clear business language, and ensure accountability.

  • Delivery & Handover: We audit code, test functionality, ensure maintainability, and verify that what you paid for is what you got.

Who This Is For

  • Founders and executives investing in custom software without in-house technical leadership

  • Teams that’ve been burned by past dev agency relationships and want to avoid it again

  • Businesses building internal tools, customer platforms, or digital products that must be right the first time

  • Anyone who needs an experienced, neutral expert to sit on their side of the table

Development Services We Offer

Get Reliable, Always-On Data Engineering Without Hiring In-House

Managing your own data stack is messy, expensive, and full of distractions. With Data Engineering, you get continuous, real-time data flows managed end-to-end without needing to hire, train, or babysit a team. Our fully managed service delivers the uptime, performance, and flexibility growing businesses need to make smarter decisions, faster.

PHP Development and Maintenance Services

If you’re stuck with an aging PHP system that’s slow, fragile, and frustrating to maintain, we get it. Red Corner provides seasoned technical leadership that knows how to bring stability, clarity, and performance back to legacy PHP. We step in where most agencies and freelancers flinch, getting to the root of the problems and fixing them the right way.
No duct tape. No fluff.

Just a serious path forward for your PHP-based assets.

Healthcare Software Built by Proven HealthTech Leaders

We’ve overseen the rollout of HealthTech platforms across Canada’s largest hospitals and thousands of clinics, integrating with government systems, improving workflows, and delivering reliable outcomes at scale. At Red Corner, we don’t just build software; we’ve lived the operational complexity that makes or breaks healthcare technology.

Technical Vendor Management

Most businesses aren’t equipped to technically vet or manage a custom development vendor. That’s where we come in. We help you choose the right dev shop, define your project clearly, ask the tough questions in meetings, and catch problems before they snowball. You’ll have a Red Corner FCTO by your side, keeping things aligned, protecting your budget, and making sure nothing gets lost in translation between business goals and technical output.

CTO-led Application Modernization for Legacy Systems

Your legacy systems aren’t just slow, they’re bleeding money, blocking growth, and draining your best talent. Red Corner brings in a battle-tested FCTO who’s done this at scale. No layers, no delays, just aggressive execution. We modernize like a startup with everything on the line, but with the discipline enterprise demands. Fast results, zero tolerance for waste, and a clear path to ROI.

Python Development and Maintenance

You don’t need more Python developers. You need someone who’s built, maintained, and scaled Python systems for real businesses and knows what breaks when things grow. At Red Corner, your Python assets are led by seasoned fractional CTOs who treat your stack like their own. No fluff. Just sustainable code that moves your business forward.

Independent Advisory for Selecting and Managing Software Agencies

Choosing a dev agency isn’t easy. It’s stressful, high-stakes, and full of unknowns. One wrong move and you’re locked into the wrong team, wrong scope, and wrong spend. That’s why we give you what no agency ever will: a seasoned, impartial CTO who works only for you. We help define the project, select the right team, oversee the work, and de-risk the entire engagement, start to finish.

Custom Web Development - CTO Led

We don’t just build what you ask for, we build what your business actually needs to grow. At Red Corner, we develop web platforms like they’re our own. Then we help you run your engineering team like real partners, not vendors. The result? A faster path from idea to revenue, with fewer tech headaches along the way.

We Fix Broken Software Projects

Over budget. Missed deadlines. A team lost in confusion. We've seen it all - and fixed it. Red Corner CTOs bring calm, clarity, and control to chaotic software projects. We don’t just rescue code - we rescue momentum.

End-to-End SaaS Application Development

You don’t need an army of devs. You need one sharp, experienced FCTO who treats your SaaS app like their own. At Red Corner, your FCTO embeds into your team, or brings in our trusted engineering crew, to build your SaaS product in a “do it with you” or “do it for you” approach. It’s like having a technical co-founder, minus the equity strings.

Shopify Development and Maintenance Services

Most Shopify developers focus on launch. We focus on what happens after performance, integrations, business intelligence, and scalable growth. Red Corner builds and maintains Shopify stores that drive real revenue.

Whether you’re aiming for your next million or planning beyond your next ten, we engineer your e-commerce foundation to scale with you not against you.

Custom Headless E-Commerce Solutions, Designed for Growth

Most e-commerce builds are bloated, slow, and stitched together without strategy. We don’t do that. Red Corner delivers custom headless commerce that actually performs, fast, flexible, and built to scale. Backed by a seasoned Fractional CTO who’s done this before, your stack won’t just work. It will work for your business. Shopify Plus, Magento, BigCommerce, custom APIs, whatever gets results, we integrate it. No fluff. Just real outcomes.

Build MVPs with a FCTO Who Thinks Like a Founder

Most founders think their biggest risk is the tech stack or choosing the wrong dev team. It’s not. The real problem is what happens after the MVP ships, when you’re left alone, holding a product without a plan, no technical partner in sight. At Red Corner, we don’t just build to spec. We help you define the real MVP, the one that validates your core assumptions, and we stay in the trenches with you as your FCTO, shaping the technical path ahead.

DevOps Transformation & Consulting

DevOps isn’t just tooling, it’s how your business ships, scales, and survives. At Red Corner, our fractional CTOs step into your team and untangle the mess behind slow releases, brittle systems, and firefighting ops. We’ve built DevOps from scratch, fixed it mid crisis, and evolved it to support product teams moving at speed. If your engineers are stuck babysitting deployments or scrambling on Slack every release, we can help. And we won’t throw buzzwords at you, we’ll show you what works, what doesn’t, and what to do next.
