Working with us from Japan

Remote, but close to Japan

Time-zone overlap

Japan is three and a half hours ahead of India, so our working days overlap for most of your afternoon, with a stand-up and same-day replies.

Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI)

We design to the APPI: clear purpose of use, security controls, rules for third-party and cross-border transfers, and data hosted in Japanese cloud regions when required. We sign NDAs before work starts.

Billing

Invoices in Japanese yen (JPY) or US dollars. Typical senior rates are $25 to $49 (USD) per hour, or a fixed price for a defined scope.

Data hosting

AWS Asia Pacific (Tokyo, Osaka) and Google Cloud asia-northeast1 (Tokyo), in your own cloud account, so data stays where your rules require.

Process

How it works

1. Free assessment

We review your code, dependencies, infrastructure and data, then give you a written migration plan, risks and a fixed quote.

2. Plan and safety net

We add automated tests and monitoring around what exists today, so every change can be checked against the old behaviour.

3. Migrate in small steps

Module by module, with both versions running side by side where needed. You see progress in a demo every week.

4. Cut over and support

A planned switch-over with a rollback path, then the same engineers stay on to fix, tune and keep it current.
