West Bengal · India
TrueLeaf Tech's engineering hub is in Durgapur, West Bengal. We build software products for clients in the USA, UAE, and across Europe — delivering senior engineering talent, clean architecture, and reliable delivery at a fraction of the cost of equivalent Western teams. India produces over 5.8 million software developers. We hire from the top of that pool.

Why India. Why us.
US companies that hire software developers from India save 40–70% on engineering costs compared to equivalent US-based hires — without sacrificing quality when they choose the right partner. The key word is "right." India produces over one million engineering graduates annually, but the difference between the top 5% and the average is enormous.
TrueLeaf Tech's India team is senior, English-proficient, and experienced working with US, UK, and UAE clients. Our engineers have built systems handling millions of daily transactions, led architecture decisions on production platforms, and integrated into client teams so seamlessly that the time zone difference stopped mattering within weeks.
We're not a body shop. We don't staff projects with juniors and add a management layer on top. We give you direct access to experienced engineers who own their work end to end.
Engagement models
We're flexible about how we engage — what matters is that the model fits how your organisation actually works.
Full product build
You bring the idea and the requirements. We provide the engineering team, the architecture, the process, and the delivery. Ideal for founders and product teams who want a trusted partner, not just contractors. Typically 12–24 weeks for an initial product.
Team extension
Our engineers embed into your existing team — attending standups, working in your codebase, using your tools. You get senior engineers without the hiring delay, with clean handoff when the engagement ends. The most popular model for scaling US product teams.
Dedicated squad
A dedicated cross-functional team of 3–6 engineers and a product lead assigned exclusively to your product. They act as your offshore engineering function — accountable, consistent, and fully aligned to your roadmap.
Our technology stack
We reach for proven technology by default. The choices below represent what our India team builds in every day — not aspirational slides from a pitch deck.
Node.js (Fastify, Express), Python (FastAPI, Django), TypeScript. RESTful and GraphQL APIs. Event-driven systems with Kafka and BullMQ.
React, Next.js, Vue.js, Tailwind CSS. Performance-first, accessibility-aware, SEO-ready web applications built for production.
React Native, Flutter, Swift (iOS), Kotlin (Android). Consumer apps and enterprise field tools with offline-first architecture.
MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, ClickHouse. Schema design, query optimisation, and migration strategies for high-volume systems.
AWS, GCP, Cloudflare. Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker. CI/CD pipelines, observability stacks, and on-call runbooks that actually work.
LLM integration (Claude, GPT, Gemini), RAG pipelines, vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate), agents, and evaluation harnesses.
Frequently asked questions
India Standard Time is 9.5–12.5 hours ahead of US time zones. In practice, this enables a follow-the-sun workflow — we ship work overnight, and your team reviews it in the morning. For real-time collaboration, we maintain a 2–3 hour daily overlap window that works for both US East and West Coast teams. Our engineers are used to this and don't treat it as a burden.
Code review is mandatory on every pull request. We run linting, automated testing, and CI/CD checks on every commit. Our engineers are expected to write code that a teammate they've never met could understand and maintain. We don't separate "offshore quality" from "onshore quality" — there's one standard.
Yes. All engagements include standard NDA and IP assignment agreements. You own everything we build. We're happy to review your standard vendor agreements or work from ours.
For team extension engagements, we work with a minimum of one senior engineer for three months. For full product builds, we scope individually — most start at $20,000 USD. We're not optimised for very small one-off tasks; we're built for ongoing, accountable partnerships.
