Is this the same as hiring an employee?
No. It is an independent service engagement with an agreed scope or capacity, while giving your team consistent access to the same developer.

Regular, dependable development help for a business that does not need—or is not ready to hire—a full internal team.
A clear, prioritized list of work

Feature delivery, fixes, integrations, and improvements
Plain-English technical guidance for business decisions
Documentation, source control, and maintainable handoff
Flexible coordination with internal or external stakeholders
Engagement
This is often called fractional development support. We agree on monthly availability, priorities, response expectations, and how progress will be reviewed.
