Why companies choose Qualabs for their video tech teams

When speed, knowledge, and accountability matter most

If you’ve ever been responsible for building or scaling a product in the media space, chances are you’ve felt the pressure. Deadlines tightening. Performance issues piling up. Internal teams overloaded. Or simply not having the specialized video knowledge to move forward confidently.

So you look for support. But not just ANY SUPPORT.

You don’t need a handful of developers with some video on their resumé. You need a team that can integrate fast, grasp the real challenge behind the backlog, and deliver meaningful progress—because they already understand how these systems work, where they break, and what it takes to make them scale.

What you really need is a partner that thinks with you. A team that doesn’t just write code—but helps you define the right solution, reduce friction across teams, and keep the product moving forward, without micromanagement.

We’re deeply specialized in video

We partner with top-tier companies whose products depend on video—not as an add-on, but as a core technology! Our teams are fully embedded into their engineering organizations, helping them evolve, scale, and deliver exceptional experiences under real-world conditions.

Our teams are built to integrate quickly and contribute across the full delivery pipeline. We're deeply specialized in video across the end-to-end video workflow, covering everything from live and on-demand streaming to backend architecture, playback, infrastructure, and advanced media R&D.

We understand video not just as a set of technologies, but as a living system that must perform, scale, and evolve. And we bring the experience, structure, and mindset to make that happen—without friction.

We build dedicated teams that feel like your own

When we start working together, we don’t just match you with devs. We design and assemble a team tailored to your product, challenge, and context.

These are not just engineers with the right skills. These are squads that are self-managed, strategically aligned, and fully embedded into your day-to-day. They integrate into your systems, adapt to your ceremonies, and contribute as part of your organization.

"I already feel that they are not contractors, they’re a team, and I work with them as if they were internal."

A support structure that goes beyond the core team

Every dedicated team we deliver comes with a support structure that allows them to thrive. It’s not just about execution — it’s about sustained performance, adaptability, and long-term value.

Each team is backed by a group we call the Embedded Business Unit:

• A Tech Manager with deep media experience who leads architecture and helps unblock complex issues.
• A Delivery Manager who ensures alignment, rhythm, and delivery across sprints and priorities.
• A People Ops Manager who looks after team growth, motivation, and feedback cycles.

This setup allows us to stay agile and maintain delivery excellence — even during holidays, shifts in scope, or team transitions.

"It’s been amazing working together. There’s full transparency and teamwork. I have visibility of everything, and it’s much easier to manage than my previous independent contracts."

Faster onboarding, less management, more progress

We’ve optimized our ramp-up to be fast — under 4 weeks, in most cases — with a team ready to contribute from day one. That’s because we don’t start with training. We start with experience.

Clients working with us report up to 78% less management time compared to freelance or generic vendors. 

Why they choose us, and why they stay

Because we don’t just solve tickets. We think alongside your team, challenge what no longer works, and build with real purpose.

Because we don’t just deliver features. We help shape the product behind them—bringing clarity, ownership, and the ability to adapt when things change.

Because our teams don’t just show up. They care. They ask the right questions. They go after the root of the problem, not just the symptoms. And they do it with the kind of collaboration and consistency that builds trust over time.

We’ve earned long-term partnerships by being exactly that: partners, not vendors. People who bring calm when things get tough, push for better when things get easy, and never lose sight of what the product actually needs.

If what you're building truly depends on video, and you're ready for a team that actually gets it, cares about it, and knows how to ship it at scale.

Let’s build it together!
