What we are
A consultancy with a pool behind it
The people who diagnose your gap work in the same organisation as the people who fill it. Nothing is thrown over a wall to a delivery partner you never met.
Where the demand is, we hold the engineering capacity.
FetchSeed is a consultancy-led resource pool. Europe is where most of our work sits, but we engage wherever you operate. We start by diagnosing where the technical gap actually is, then place the specific engineers, AI, data, cloud, software, QA, design, who close it. Partnership first; headcount is the output, not the pitch.
The Method
Diagnose the gap before anyone is placed.
Most capacity problems are described as a hiring problem and are actually an architecture, tooling or process problem. We separate the two first in writing then staff against what we found.
From first conversation to measurable impact
Listen
Sessions with your engineering and business leads. What is late, what is manual, what nobody owns, what your roadmap assumes you can hire.
Map the gap
A written capability map: skills you hold, skills you lack, and which of those are worth buying versus building. Delivered whether or not you engage us further.
Compose the team
Named engineers from the relevant pool, interviewed by your leads against your standards. Small teams with a technical lead, not a bench of CVs.
Run and review
Agile cadence inside your tooling, with a periodical review that re-tests the original gap. Scale the pool up, down, or hand it over as a captive centre.
Who we are
A South Asian engineering core, and no layer in between.
How we contract
SL registered, EU-comfortable
fetchseed LTD is a limited-liability company registered in the United Kingdom. Contracts, invoicing and IP assignment sit under a jurisdiction.
Where we sit
Inside your stack
Your repositories, your cloud accounts, your ticket queue, your data-governance rules. We integrate with the environment you have rather than proposing one we prefer.
Capability pools
Six Pools. Composed to fit the gap.
Each pool is a real practice with its own leads, tooling and review gates - not a service page. Teams are usually drawn from two or three of them at once, and resources move across pools as your demand shifts.
Artificial Intelligence
Turn data into insight
Deep learning and computer vision built for production constraints labelled-data pipelines, training and evaluation, quantised inference at the edge, LLM extraction and retrieval over your own documents, drift monitoring after release.
Data Engineering
Build intelligent solutions
Warehouse and lakehouse design, ingestion and change-data-capture, feature stores, forecasting and optimisation models, and the analytics layer that lets an operating team act on the output.
Cloud & Platform
Enable agility and scale
Corporate network, on-premise data centre and cloud footprint — architected, implemented and troubleshot. Containers, infrastructure-as-code, observability and network-security hardening across hybrid estates.
Software & Embedded
Turn data into insight
Web, mobile, IoT and embedded systems, with the project management to keep a distributed team honest. Large-scale delivery experience rather than first-time offshore.
Quality Assurance
Build intelligent solutions
Test strategy rather than test ticket automation suites in your CI, API and performance testing, release regression, and model-behaviour evaluation for the AI work. QA engineers who can read the codebase they are testing.
UI / UX Design
Enable agility and scale
Product designers and researchers who work in the same sprint as the engineers flows, design systems, accessibility, and the interface work that decides whether an internal tool actually gets used.
Proof, not promises
Get more into Partnership
One partnership, four production workstreams.
A standing engagement is easier to describe by what actually shipped than by what we promise. Here is one of them, in full.
HM Precious Metals
A trusted partnership spanning over five years, built on shared expertise, resource collaboration, and successful project delivery, from software architecture to UI/UX design and quality assurance.
Lanka Labs
Through Fetchseed’s partner pool, Lanka Labs provides specialist cybersecurity and GRC solutions to protect client businesses, digital platforms and data. Their expertise in cybersecurity, SOC operations and cloud security adds a dedicated security layer to Fetchseed.

Tell us the constraint, not the buzzword.
Tell us the constraint, not the buzzword.
Send the problem a bottleneck, a dataset you cannot use, a roadmap you cannot staff. You will get a technical response from an engineer, not a sales sequence.

Registered in the LK.Staffed from South Asia.Working wherever you are.
fetchseed LTD is a limited-liability company registered in the United Kingdom, formed to provide technology consultancy and to facilitate off-shore services — captive and otherwise — for organisations that need engineering capacity they cannot hire locally.
Accountability line
Contract → delivery → handover
Each stage has one named owner on the call sheet - a handover is a conversation between two people, not a ticket dropped in a queue.

Background
Where the expertise comes from
Our partners have built off-shore cost and research centres in South Asia, run large-scale software project management, and shipped deep-learning and computer-vision systems into production environments.
Alongside that sits cloud services, information-technology security, legal-process outsourcing and financial-process outsourcing — the operational disciplines that decide whether an offshore arrangement survives its second year.

Principles
How we behave in a partnership
Diagnosis before proposal
You get the capability map even if you never sign anything. If the gap does not need us, we say so.
Named people
Engineers are introduced by name and interviewed by your leads. No silent substitutions mid-engagement.
Your IP, from day one
Code, models, documentation and data assignments are yours under the UK contract, not held hostage to renewal.
An exit that works
Every engagement has a documented path to either transfer the team to you as a captive entity or wind it down cleanly.
Four shapes of engagement. Same diagnostic front door.
Every engagement starts with the technical gap review. What it turns into depends on what the review finds.

- Interviews with engineering and business leads
- Architecture and process review
- Buy-versus-build call per capability
- Yours to keep, engagement or not
Model B
Embedded pool team
Engineers drawn from the relevant pools, working inside your cadence and tooling as part of your team.
- Named engineers, your interview loop
- Technical lead included
- Scale up or down quarterly
- 4.5 hours of daily CET overlap
Model C
Captive centre
A cost or research centre in Sri Lanka — fully owned by your European entity, or operated on your behalf.
- Entity, premises, hiring, compliance
- Security posture and tooling set up
- Defined path to full ownership
- Your standards, your brand
Model D
Shared cross-pool capacity
Fractional specialists drawn across pools for the weeks you need them, instead of a full-time hire you cannot justify.
- QA, design or platform on part allocation
- From 0.5 FTE, reviewed monthly
- Reallocated as the bottleneck moves
- No contract renegotiation to switch
In their words
Typical gaps we are asked to close
Phrased the way clients actually phrase them on the first call.
“We have had an ML engineer role open for nine months and the roadmap depends on it.”
“We are sitting on years of data and cannot get a usable signal out of it.”
“The AI pilot worked in a notebook and nobody knows how to put it in production.”
“Delivery is slowing down and we cannot tell whether it is people, process or platform.”
“We need to keep the roadmap and reduce the run-rate without losing quality.”
“Releases keep slipping on regressions and we have no automated test coverage worth trusting.”
R&D centres, run at South Asian cost and European standards.
Research capacity is the hardest thing to justify locally and the easiest thing to lose. We host it — machine learning, robotics, blockchain and fintech — as a dedicated centre attached to your organisation.
Research loop
Continuous, not a one-off sprint
Most R&D stalls after the first paper or prototype. We keep a standing weekly cadence so a result either earns its way into the production pool or gets retired — nothing sits on a shelf for a quarter waiting for someone to revisit it.

Research tracks
Three tracks, one attached centre
Track 01
Machine learning R&D
A standing team that runs experiments against your data - new architectures, distillation for cheaper inference, evaluation harnesses - and hands the winners to the production pool with a reproducible pipeline.
Track 02
Computer vision & robotics
Perception work where the constraint is physical: inspection and defect detection on a line, tracking in a warehouse, models small enough to run on the hardware you already installed.
Track 03
Blockchain & fintech
Distributed-ledger work where provenance and settlement genuinely matter - smart-contract engineering, auditability, and integration with the payment and reconciliation systems already in place.
Set-up
How an R&D centre is set up
01
Research charter
What the centre is allowed to explore, what it must ship, and how success is judged each quarter.
02
Data & compliance path
Lawful basis, residency and access controls agreed before any dataset moves.
03
Team & supervision
Researchers and engineers hired against the charter, reporting into a lead you meet.
04
Transfer window
A pre-agreed point at which the centre can become your wholly owned subsidiary.

Start the conversation
Want to become a standing partner?
The same model — embedded, accountable, one team — is available for any platform with a real backlog.
Work on systems across Europe and beyond, without leaving Sri Lanka.
You join a pool, not a project queue. That means depth in one discipline, exposure to several client stacks — pools share people when demand shifts — and a technical lead whose job is your progression rather than your utilisation.
Six pools
Pools we recruit into
Select a pool to apply to it directly.
Process
How hiring works
- 01
A technical conversation, not a quiz — we talk about something you actually built.
- 02
A practical exercise close to the work in your pool, time-boxed and paid for if it is substantial.
- 03
A conversation with the pool lead about where you want to be in two years.
- 04
For client-embedded roles, an introduction to the client's engineering lead.
Speculative applications
No open role that fits?
Send your work — repositories, papers, systems you have run. We read speculative applications properly because pool depth is the product.
