We move your team onto the exponential.

Eigen is a monthly embedded engagement that installs an agentic‑development operating model inside an existing engineering organization. Led by a founder or senior principal of Extreme Scale Solutions.

The exponential function e to the x with a hairline curve steepening through an inflection point labeled Phase 0, Init — the shape of Eigen's effect on engineering output.

Your team isn’t operating with agentic development yet, and most of what you’ve been pitched feels like marketing.

Every engineering organization is being asked to articulate an AI strategy. The available answers tend to be tooling licenses, pilot consultancies, or internal initiatives that consume senior engineers and produce ambiguous outcomes. We are none of these. We are an engineering firm that uses agentic development on our own regulated, safety‑critical work — and we install the same operating model inside teams that want it.

Eigen is not a tool, a pilot, or a strategy. It is a finite engineering retrofit.

A senior engineer installs the operating model inside your team.

For six to nine months — sometimes shorter, sometimes longer — a founder or senior principal of Extreme Scale Solutions is embedded with your engineering organization. They install an agentic‑development operating model: ticketing, deterministic entry points, role‑specific agents, review and feedback loops. Tuned to your codebase. Tuned to your security posture. Tuned to your review culture. The team operating it fluently is the deliverable. The tooling is the artifact.

The operating model is what compounds. The tooling is replaceable.

Four phases. Mathematical in name, finite in scope.

Engagements organize around four phases. They are not rigid timelines; they describe the shape of the work.

Phase 0

Init

Two weeks. A written assessment of the team, code, and workflow. Identifies the three highest‑leverage interventions and the two senior engineers whose alignment determines the engagement’s success.

Phase 1

First Derivative

Velocity. The initial operating model is installed. A measurable slice of work begins moving through the new system.

Phase 2

Second Derivative

Acceleration. The team begins authoring its own agents and extensions under principal supervision. Improvements compound.

Phase H

Hessian

Multidimensional expansion. The operating model spreads across teams or codebases. Ownership is transferred. The engagement closes.

Our day job is writing software that cannot fail.

Extreme Scale Solutions builds safety‑critical and mission‑critical software for regulated industries. The credentials below describe the firm. The Eigen operating model was developed on this work, under the same defect tolerance and review discipline we ship to regulators.

  • Embedded firmware in flight control systems for major defense platforms.

  • FDA‑filed Class II and Class III medical devices, including pacemakers, LVADs, and active implants.

  • Production trading and custody systems at top‑tier U.S. financial institutions, including the largest custodian bank in the world.

  • Embedded systems running electronic frac fleets for a top North American oilfield services company.

  • Wafer‑level and RF work for major semiconductor manufacturers.

  • Distributed deep learning and HPC at DOE supercomputer scale.

  • FPGA inference, homomorphic encryption, and post‑quantum cryptography deployments.

All engineers are U.S. citizens and background‑checked.

Monthly. Paid in advance. Cancel anytime.

Eigen is a monthly engagement. There is no minimum commitment, no maximum, and no prorating. Most engagements run six to nine months.

Founder-led

$300,000 per month.

One of the firm’s founders is your embedded principal.

Principal-led

$150,000 per month.

A senior principal runs the engagement; the founders advise.

No license. No SaaS. No recurring software relationship.

The engagement ends. The capability remains.

At exit, you own the operating model, the runbook, the documentation, and the trained team. There is no license to renew, no platform to depend on, and no part of the work that requires our continued involvement. The system that runs on the last day of the engagement is yours. The capability to evolve it lives in your team.

What survives the engagement is your team’s ability to keep building.

Request a conversation.

Conversations begin with a thirty-minute call with one of the founders. There is no presentation. We will answer your questions and form a view on whether the engagement is a fit.
