Poland-based • Remote-first • Serving USA & EU

Is your team stuck?
Engineering leadership unclear?
.NET MAUI proving difficult?

niobo helps engineering teams cut through the noise, fix broken workflows, and ship confidently. We bring deep expertise in engineering management, mobile development, and .NET MAUI to teams across the USA & EU.

Three Core Specializations

Problems We Solve

Not generic consulting. Specific expertise in three areas where we deliver real results.

layers

Engineering Management

Your team is working hard but shipping slowly. Sprint planning is theater. Estimates are fiction. Deployment is terrifying.

How we help:

  • Process audits that identify and eliminate workflow bottlenecks
  • Deployment pipeline optimization and release process improvement
  • Team scaling strategies that maintain velocity as you grow
smartphone

Mobile Development

Your iOS and Android apps are fragile, slow, or stuck in refactoring hell. Every feature takes twice as long as it should.

How we help:

  • Architecture reviews and refactoring for maintainable, testable mobile apps
  • Cross-platform development with pragmatic, context-driven trade-offs
  • Performance optimization to improve user experience and retention
code

.NET MAUI

You're building with .NET MAUI and hitting walls. Performance issues. Platform-specific bugs. Architecture confusion.

How we help:

  • .NET MAUI architecture planning and implementation guidance
  • MAUI architecture patterns, performance tuning, and platform handlers expertise
  • Guidance to avoid common MAUI pitfalls and accelerate development
Process Transparency

How We'll Work Together

No vague promises. Here's exactly what happens, what you'll get, and what we need from you.

The Standard Engagement

1

Discovery Call (30-60 min, free)

We ask questions. You explain the situation. We tell you honestly if we can help or not.

You'll get:

  • • Initial diagnosis of what's actually broken
  • • Our honest take on whether we're the right fit
  • • 1-2 quick wins you can implement immediately
2

Deep Dive Audit (1-2 weeks)

We dig into your codebase, talk to your team, map your workflow, and find the real bottlenecks.

Deliverables:

  • • Written audit report (15-25 pages, not fluff)
  • • Prioritized list of fixes (what to tackle first)
  • • Architecture review (for technical engagements)
  • • 90-minute review session where we discuss everything

Your team's time: 3-5 hours total for interviews

3

Implementation Support (ongoing or project-based)

We work together to fix what's broken. We can advise, pair with your team, or handle implementation—depends on your needs.

Common formats:

  • • Weekly advisory sessions (1-2 hours/week)
  • • Embedded sprint work (hands-on coding/architecture)
  • • Implementation support (.NET MAUI, architecture refactors)
  • • Team coaching (process improvement, leadership support)

How We'll Start (Risk-Free)

niobo is a new consultancy, but our expertise isn't new. Here's how we de-risk working together:

  • 1.

    Free discovery call

    Zero commitment. If we can't help, we'll tell you and point you to someone who can.

  • 2.

    Pilot engagement

    Start with the audit (fixed scope, fixed price). If you're not happy with the output, we stop there. No hard feelings.

  • 3.

    Transparent pricing

    We'll send you a clear proposal with scope, deliverables, timeline, and cost. No surprises.

Why Work With Us

We're not for everyone. Here's what you're getting—and what you're not.

  • check_circle

    Brutal Honesty

    If your timeline is unrealistic, we'll tell you. If your architecture is a disaster, we'll tell you. If you need someone else, we'll tell you that too.

  • check_circle

    Real-World Experience

    We've built and scaled systems used by millions, not just studied them. Our team brings hands-on experience from growing engineering orgs and shipping production software.

    Outcome Focus

    Success = your team ships faster and with less chaos. Not the length of our reports or the number of meetings we schedule.

  • check_circle

    Deep .NET MAUI Expertise

    This is a niche. Most consultants talk about MAUI vaguely. We have production experience building MAUI apps and know where the pitfalls are.

    You Want Yes-Men

    If you need consultants to just execute orders without pushing back on bad ideas, we're not it.

  • cancel

    You Want Cookie-Cutter Solutions

    We don't apply the same framework to every company. Your context is unique, and so is the solution.

  • cancel

    You Need a Quick Band-Aid

    We fix root causes, not symptoms. If you need a hack to ship next week and deal with debt later, look elsewhere.

    You Need Proof First

    niobo is new. No testimonials yet. If you need a consultancy with 50 case studies, that's not us—yet.

Questions

Common Questions

What's your approach to working with clients?

We start with a free discovery call where we ask questions and diagnose the situation. If we're not the right fit, we'll tell you honestly and point you to someone who can help.

If we move forward, we begin with a focused audit engagement (fixed scope, fixed price). You see the value firsthand before committing to longer-term work. No 6-month contracts upfront—we earn your trust through results.

How much does this cost?

It depends on scope. Typical ranges:

  • Discovery call: Free
  • Audit engagement: Fixed project fee (depends on company size and complexity)
  • Ongoing advisory: Monthly retainer or hourly
  • Implementation work: Project-based or time & materials

After our discovery call, we'll send you a clear proposal with options. No vague "it depends" pricing once we've talked.

What if we're not happy with the work?

We stop. Seriously. If you're not getting value after the audit phase, we part ways. We'd rather have honest feedback and a clear no than drag out an engagement that's not working.

Do you do hands-on coding or just advise?

Both, depending on what you need. We can pair with your team on architecture, write critical code (especially for .NET MAUI development), or stay in an advisory role. We'll figure out the right balance during the discovery call.

You're in Poland. We're in [USA/EU]. Does that work?

Yes. We work remotely with teams across time zones. For US clients, we can adjust schedules for overlap. For EU clients, we're already aligned.

Most of our work is async anyway (audits, code reviews, documentation). Live sessions are scheduled in advance.

What size companies do you work with?

Best fit: Engineering teams of 5-100 people. Smaller than that, you probably don't need us yet. Larger than that, you might need a bigger consultancy with more hands on deck (or we scope to a specific team/project).

How long does a typical engagement last?

Varies based on scope:

  • Audit only: 2-3 weeks
  • Process improvement: 2-4 months
  • Architecture refactoring: 3-6 months (depending on complexity)
  • Ongoing advisory: Month-to-month, cancel anytime

Let's Talk About Your Situation

Free 30-minute call. No pitch, just questions. We'll tell you honestly if we can help.

Worst case: You get a few quick wins for free. Best case: We work together and fix what's broken.
