WHO WE ARE

A senior Rails team you can outsource to

FusionHit is where US teams outsource Ruby on Rails without the cost and lead time of hiring in-house. Senior nearshore engineers, fluent in modern Rails, Hotwire, and ActiveRecord performance tuning, work in your time zone as an extension of your team.

\
WHAT WE DO

Ruby on Rails services we provide

One senior team across the full Rails lifecycle, from a new build to a rescue.

Custom Rails application development

Products built the Rails way, so the next team can read them without a tour.

Rails version upgrades

Rails 4, 5, and 6 apps brought to a supported release, one version at a time.

Rails rescue and code audit

Inherited apps with no docs and no tests, mapped and stabilized before any feature work.

API and headless Rails development

Rails as a clean backend for a separate front end or mobile client.

Performance and database tuning

N+1 queries, missing indexes, and backed-up job queues, fixed against real p95 numbers.

DevOps and Heroku exit

Moves to AWS or Kamal when the platform bill outgrows the convenience.

The team has been able to stay as a team for two years now. A single team, with nobody leaving. I've had a really stable team that I've seen grow in strength.

FAQ

FAQs about our Ruby on Rails development services

01

Why outsource Rails development instead of hiring in-house?

The US Rails talent pool has thinned for years while the apps kept running, so senior Rails hires are scarce and expensive. Outsourcing gets you that seniority in days, at 30-50% below domestic rates. If you would rather bring talent onto your own payroll, see hire Ruby on Rails developers.
02

How much does Ruby on Rails development cost?

It depends on team size, seniority, and engagement model (staff augmentation, a dedicated team, or full project outsourcing). Senior LATAM rates run 30-50% under US equivalents, with a line-item estimate on the first call and no hidden overhead.
03

Can you take us from Rails 5 or 6 to Rails 8 without freezing features?

Yes. We upgrade one major version at a time behind a test harness we build first, so each step deploys on its own and the roadmap keeps moving between them.
04

What if our app has almost no test coverage and several abandoned gems?

That is the normal starting point for a Rails rescue. Characterization tests come first on the paths that matter, then gems get replaced one by one: Sprockets to Propshaft, Delayed Job to Sidekiq or Solid Queue.
05

Would you push us to rebuild the front end in React?

Not by default. Hotwire and Turbo cover most Rails product needs at a fraction of the maintenance cost. We recommend a separate front end only when the interaction model genuinely requires it.
06

Can you fix our N+1 queries and backed-up Sidekiq queues?

Yes, with before-and-after p95 numbers rather than adjectives. Query profiling, indexing, caching, and job queue redesign, in the order the evidence supports.
07

Is Rails still a safe bet for a product we will run for another decade?

For most CRUD-heavy business products, yes. Rails 8 shipped a leaner default stack and the framework is actively developed. The real risk is hiring, which is the problem a nearshore team solves.
08

How fast can a Rails team start?

We present matched profiles within days, you approve them, and most engineers onboard in under 2 weeks, compared to the 3-6 months a typical US hiring cycle takes.
