Software development for Boston companies

We build software for Boston companies

Compliance and data residency are not obstacles we negotiate around. They are the terms we design inside.

  • When we are actually working

    10:00 to 19:00 IST, 04:30 to 13:30 UTC, year roundMonday to Friday, 10:00 to 19:00 IST, which is 04:30 to 13:30 UTC, all year. India does not change its clocks, so that window never shifts with daylight saving. North American teams sit outside it for most of their day. Work gets scheduled around that rather than pretending otherwise.

  • Where your code and data sit

    Your repositories and cloud accountsCode lives in your Git hosting and deployments run in your cloud accounts. Personal data stays in your tenancy and never crosses a border without your architecture holding it there.

  • Who is in Boston

    NobodyEvery one of our software engineers currently works from India. There is no Boston office, no US entity and nobody on your side of the water.

Tell us what you are building.

You get a reply within one business day, with a technical person on the call.

Start with a paragraph

What it does, who uses it, and what has to be true before you can sign. One business day, technical person on the call.

How we handle what you send is set out in our privacy notice.

They understood the compliance questions before we asked. Code is in our account, audits are straightforward, and six months in we never had that vendor lock-in conversation because it was solved on the first call.

Healthcare software company, Boston, 2023

One engagement, on how it ran. Ownership, audit cooperation and data residency are what they are describing. Take it for what it is, a project that kept its terms and shipped inside compliance.

What this means for your compliance

Three commitments

  • Code ownership

    What we promise

    Every line of production code is your IP from the first commit. Code lives in your repositories and deployments run in your cloud accounts, with code review by a senior software engineer before every merge.

  • Audit cooperation

    What we promise

    We build systems to pass your compliance audits. We do not hold framework certifications ourselves. Your auditors set the bar and we build to it. If your procurement requires vendor certification, we fail that test.

  • Data residency

    What we promise

    Personal data stays in your cloud accounts and your tenancy. You control access and we design to that control. What crosses a border is access, not copies of your data.

What stalls software projects in regulated industries

Boston healthcare tech, biotech, fintech and higher ed companies carry compliance into every vendor conversation. The blocker is usually not the build.

Code ownership

The default under US law surprises most vendors. Without an assignment in writing, the firm keeps the copyright. So the board has paid for code that compliance cannot show you own.

Audit readiness

Compliance asks how the software got built, who touches it now and what happens if there is a breach. A team you cannot describe to an auditor is a team you cannot keep.

Data handling

Personal data in a production database sits inside your tenancy. How a third party reaches it, how long it stays, and what you prove about their access are questions your data officer asks.

Continuity

Vendor lock-in is the fear underneath. What happens if the vendor disappears, or the work has to move, or the contract ends with nobody having documented how to run the thing.

Here is the version to paste

At some point you have to explain this to someone who will never read a supplier's website, and who was not in any of these meetings.

Atyantik Technologies, software delivery supplier summary

  • Supplier. Atyantik Technologies. All developers currently based in India. No US entity, no Boston office.
  • Hours. Monday to Friday, 10:00 to 19:00 IST, which is 04:30 to 13:30 UTC, all year. India does not change its clocks, so that window never shifts with daylight saving. North American teams sit outside it for most of their day. Work gets scheduled around that rather than pretending otherwise.
  • Code ownership. Their position is that from Day 1 the code is our IP. For that to hold, our agreement has to assign future copyright in writing before work starts. Code in our own repositories and deployments in our own cloud accounts, not theirs.
  • Compliance. They build systems to pass our audits. Every production commit is reviewed by a senior software engineer. They hold no framework certifications themselves. If our procurement requires vendor certification, this stops here.
  • Data. Personal data stays in our tenancy. Deployments in our cloud accounts. Access control under our architecture.
  • Change control and first response. Every change request becomes a change note with time, effort and cost laid out before approval. Nothing moves on a re-scope we have not explicitly accepted. First response is one business day, technical person on the call.

What we deliver

Compliance and data residency are not obstacles we negotiate around. They are the terms we design inside. Every line of code is reviewed by a senior software engineer. Code lives in your repositories. Data stays in your tenancy. What you pay for is yours from the first commit.

  • Code ownership transfers to you on Day 1, documented in the agreement before work starts
  • Every production commit reviewed by a senior software engineer against your audit standards
  • Deployments in your cloud accounts, data in your tenancy, architecture under your control
  • Scope agreed in writing before work starts and a change written down before it is accepted
  • One business day first response with a technical person on the call, not a salesperson
  • Documentation: architecture, deployment, CI/CD pipelines, requirements and change notes

Whether to call us

  • You are building or rebuilding a product and want one team on it rather than a rotating bench. You get a core team assigned only to your project, and a lead software engineer you talk to directly.

  • Your compliance team sets the bar and you want a supplier who builds to it. That is the arrangement we are built for.

  • Your legal team is willing to assign future copyright in writing before work starts. That clause is what makes the ownership real.

Where we are the wrong call

  • Your procurement policy requires the supplier itself to hold a compliance certification. We hold none, and we will not argue you out of your own policy.

    Security and compliance work

  • You need somebody reachable across a full Boston working day. Our window sits outside most of it, and we do not offer continuous cover.

    Where we actually are

  • Your compliance officer will not approve any processing outside the US as a matter of policy. The architecture we describe depends on you controlling the data residency.

    How we design data access

  • You want to see delivered work before you talk to anyone. There is a better starting point than a contact form.

    Delivered work

Questions your own process will generate

Where are your developers based?
Every one of our software engineers currently works from India. There is no Boston office, no US entity and nobody on your side of the water. We work with Boston companies from India, on a published window of 10:00 to 19:00 India time, which is 04:30 to 13:30 UTC, all year. India does not change its clocks, so that window never shifts with daylight saving.
Who owns the code we pay for?
You do. Under US copyright law, the author is the first owner unless the agreement assigns it. Our position is that from Day 1 every line of code is your IP. Code lives in your repositories and deployments run in your cloud accounts, not ours. Every line of production code is reviewed by a senior software engineer before it merges.
Can you meet HIPAA or SOC 2 requirements?
Yes. We build systems that pass your auditors' compliance requirements. Our enterprise engagements include regulated finance and healthcare platforms where security audits are regular and downtime is measured in minutes. We implement authentication and access control at the standard those domains expect. We do not hold certifications ourselves, we build systems that satisfy your auditors.
How does data residency work?
Code lives in your repositories and deployments run in your cloud accounts, so data stays in your tenancy. Personal data never crosses a border without your architecture holding it there. Your compliance officer controls data access and we design to that control.
What happens if we need to move the work in-house?
Every project starts with documentation: architecture, deployment, CI/CD pipelines, requirements and change notes. If you choose to move the work, the handoff is a process, not a hostage situation. Freedom to leave is the standing arrangement.

Tell us what you are building

A paragraph is enough. What it does, who uses it, and what has to be true before you can sign.

If the ownership question or the compliance question is what is blocking you, say so in the message. We bring those answers to the first call instead of the third.
