Embedded engineers who make your systems — and your AI — observable

AppCreative embeds senior AI and observability engineers in your team. They instrument, monitor and harden your production systems and the AI agents running inside them — in your sprints, your tools and your time zone.

7 Years Outsourcing and Supplemental Staff Experience

Platform-agnostic across Datadog, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Splunk, New Relic, Dynatrace and Prometheus

THE OBSERVABILITY GAP

You have observability tools. You don't have the hours to make them work.

Most teams already pay for two or three monitoring stacks. The alerts are noisy, the dashboards disagree, and incidents still start with someone asking, “Where do we even look?” Now AI agents are in production too, making decisions no one can trace. Your SREs are absorbing all of it without new headcount. That’s the gap we fill.

What AppCreative engineers do

Observability engineering

Unify logs, metrics and traces with OpenTelemetry. Tune alerting so on-call hears signal, not noise. Cut mean time to resolution with correlated, cross-domain root-cause analysis.

AI engineering and LLM observability

Build LLM features and agents, then make them traceable: every prompt, retrieval, tool call, token and failure. Add the audit trail your risk and compliance teams require.

Engineering staff augmentation

Add one specialist or an embedded pod. You interview every engineer, direct the work and own the code.

ENGAGEMENT MODEL

Specialists, not a talent marketplace

We don’t match you with random platform freelancers. We build dedicated, integrated engineering partnerships designed for stability and high performance.

Meet the engineer you get

You interview and approve every person. The engineer in the interview is the engineer on your team. No bait-and-switch.

The same people stay

We plan for continuity, so the context your team builds doesn’t walk out the door. Our retention target per engagement is 18 months.

Platform-agnostic by design

We don’t resell any observability or infrastructure vendor. We recommend exactly what fits your stack and budget.

Embedded, not outsourced

Our engineers join your daily standups, your Slack channels, and your on-call rotation. They report directly to your internal tech leads.

Senior from day one

Engineers who have built, optimized, and run complex production systems at scale. No juniors learning on your active systems.

TESTIMONIALS

What clients say

“Dale and the AppCreative team were a consistent partner on the project who contributed to the evolution of our architecture and our approach to development.”

Our Pipeline

From first call to first commit in 10 days

Tell us the gap

A 30-minute call about your stack, your incidents and what “fixed” looks like.

Meet your shortlist

We send matched engineers within 3 business days. You interview them to ensure a perfect alignment with your roadmap.

Start with a trial

Short paid trials enable you to feel confident in engineer skill and fit without exposing you to large financial risk. If you are not fully satisfied with your matched engineer within the first 14 days, we will source an immediate replacement at no cost.

Scale or stay steady

Add engineers or a full product pod as needed. The core integration team stays put to preserve invaluable institutional knowledge.

Your stack is talking. Let's make sure someone's listening.

Tell us where visibility breaks down — a noisy alert pipeline, a migration to OpenTelemetry, or an AI agent nobody can audit. We’ll reply within one business day with a plan to move you forward.
