LLM Feature Engineering
OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini. We build AI features into your product.
What we build
Two ways Kambda brings AI to your engineering
AI tooling accelerates how we code. LLM feature engineering puts AI inside your product.
LLM API Integration
Connect your product to OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini. We handle prompt engineering, context management, token optimization, and API cost control. OpenAI · Anthropic · GeminiRAG Pipelines
Retrieval-Augmented Generation over your own data, documentation, knowledge bases, tickets, or product content. Grounded answers, no hand-waving. Embeddings · Vector DBsAI Chatbots and Assistants
Conversational AI embedded in your SaaS product for customer support, internal assistants, onboarding flows, and in-app copilots with memory and context. LangChain · StreamingDocument AI
Intelligent processing of PDFs, contracts, reports, and forms. Extraction, classification, summarization, and structured output ready for your database. Extraction · OCRSemantic Search
Replace keyword search with meaning-based retrieval across your product content, data, or users using embeddings and vector similarity. pgvector · Weaviate · QdrantAI-Augmented Code Delivery
Every Kambda engineer ships with Cursor, Copilot, and Claude Code active. Faster test coverage, cleaner PRs, and higher throughput on your existing roadmap. Cursor · Copilot · Claude CodeSprint velocity

How we compare
AI-augmented vs. traditional nearshore
What changes when your nearshore team works with AI tooling by default and can build AI features, not just consume them.
| Traditional Nearshore | Kambda AI-Augmented | |
|---|---|---|
| Uses AI coding tools daily | Varies / optional | Standard on every engagement |
| Can build LLM-powered features | Rarely included | Core capability |
| Sprint throughput vs. comparable seniority | Baseline | 2 to 4x higher on common tasks |
| Test coverage on deliverables | Often skipped or minimal | AI-generated test suites as standard |
| Time zone overlap with US | Varies by region | Full CST overlap, year-round |
| Onboarding time | 2 to 6 weeks typical | 5 to 10 business days |
| RAG / vector search experience | Not standard | Available on request |
| Code documentation quality | Inconsistent | AI-assisted inline docs |
The process
From call to first AI-powered commit
Getting started with an AI-augmented Kambda team follows the same engagement model as our standard work, just faster than any US hire.

Common questions
What engineering leaders ask us
Do all Kambda engineers actually use AI coding tools, or is this marketing?
It is standard practice, not a pitch. Kambda engineers use GitHub Copilot, Cursor, and Claude Code on every engagement. Before placement we confirm that a candidate is actively using these tools, not just claiming familiarity.
Can Kambda engineers build LLM features, or just use AI to code faster?
Both. Using Copilot is about how we code. Building RAG pipelines, chatbots, document AI, or semantic search is about what we build. Kambda has engineers with hands-on experience in both.
Does my team need to change how they work to support AI-augmented developers?
No. Kambda engineers integrate into your existing workflow, sprints, review process, and tooling. The AI tooling lives on the developer side. You notice the output, not the process overhead.
What AI models and APIs do your engineers have experience with?
Our engineers have production experience with OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini, plus Pinecone, Weaviate, Qdrant, pgvector, LangChain, and LlamaIndex where relevant.
How does pricing work for AI-augmented engineers compared to standard staff augmentation?
The engagement model and pricing structure stays the same: from $30 per hour per developer, with the final rate depending on seniority and stack. AI tooling licenses are included in the engagement.
