Seven years embedded inside an Australian media group

Seven West Media is one of Australia’s largest multi-platform media companies, with a history across broadcast television, publishing and digital content. Competing in that market means shipping continuously, which means having more senior engineering capacity than any one company can hire on demand.

That is the whole brief. Since 2019 our engineers have worked inside their teams, on their processes, under their technical leadership.

How the engagement actually runs

Every engineer goes through a dual onboarding — our own business orientation, then Seven West’s technical onboarding — so that by the time someone joins a standup they understand both the company they’re serving and the systems they’re touching. Performance reviews and planning run jointly.

The work has spanned software development, digital media and content streaming, including the technology behind their coverage of major live events such as the FIFA Women’s World Cup.

What we can and can’t say

The specifics belong to Seven West Media, not to us, so this page carries none of them.

What we can tell you is the part that matters to anyone considering the same arrangement: it has been running for seven years, and it has grown rather than shrunk. In staff augmentation that is the only metric that isn’t marketing — clients renew people they trust and quietly stop renewing people they don’t.
