Why Techlina
Enterprise experience, without the enterprise overheads
Techlina is a senior engineering team led by founder Saad Malik. Our engineers have spent more than a decade in delivery teams for organisations including the Home Office, HMRC, the Ministry of Defence, the Royal Navy, Mastercard, Volkswagen and The FA.
You get that experience on your project directly. We build with Java, React and Angular on AWS, the same enterprise technology that banks and government departments rely on, and we can work in the technology your organisation already uses. There are no account managers or junior hand-offs, and modern AI-assisted tooling keeps the pace high without cutting corners.

Explore industry workflowsLet's work together
In person or remotely
Start with a conversation. You do not need a technical specification to tell us what you want to achieve.
Meet in person
Discuss the work face to face. We agree the location, timing and any travel arrangements with you.
Work remotely
Video calls, shared project updates and demonstrations keep you involved wherever you are.
A personal response
Every request is treated as urgent. Share any critical deadline and we will confirm availability and next steps.
Common questions
A little clarity before we start
How do your fixed prices work?
Every fixed-price project starts with a short paid Scoping Sprint. We agree the screens, features, risks and price in writing, and the Scoping Sprint fee is credited in full against the work. If you later want something outside that scope, we price it before doing it.
What if my project doesn't fit one of the offers?
Many projects don't. Book a free call and we will either shape it into a fixed-price piece of work or suggest a delivery pod, an AI solution or a different approach.
Do you work with businesses outside Solihull and Birmingham?
Yes. We are based in Solihull and work with clients across the West Midlands, the UK and internationally. We meet in person where it helps and work remotely the rest of the time.
How quickly will you respond?
Every request is treated as urgent and you hear back from our team personally. Tell us about any critical deadline and we will confirm availability and the next step.
Do you work with larger organisations and existing engineering teams?
Yes. Alongside fixed-price work, we offer senior-led delivery pods, backlog support, Java and React engineering, architecture and cloud modernisation, scoped around your delivery process.
Who owns the code?
You do. Code repositories, cloud accounts and app store listings are set up in your name or transferred to you at handover.
How much does an app cost?
Our 6-Week App Launch is a fixed price for a focused first app, and larger apps are quoted after a Scoping Sprint. Our guide How much does an app cost in the UK? explains typical UK prices and what drives them.
