How It Works
We set up your development team/own development center
We build your team based on your requirements, using our internal development resources and recruitment capabilities. We strive to keep our best people in-house, so you may find some developer resources available right from the start. If required, our HR team will help to meet your special needs by custom recruitment locally, nationally, and regionally (Eastern Europe).
We integrate the team/center with your site
A Delivery Manager responsible for team integration with your site is allocated to your account. He will work closely with you for the first months of cooperation to work out an efficient remote cooperation model and help to set up all the agile processes necessary for a geographically distributed team. He will be responsible for business processes integration, technology alignment, team-building activities and setting up and overseeing effective communication.
We take care of administration
We take care of all administration pertaining to your team at our development centers. We provide technical infrastructure, encourage continued education and stimulate professional growth of your team. Your developers will not work isolated – we work to make sure that 900+ developers working at our development centers in Ukraine (Lviv, Kiev), Poland (Krakow), Belarus (Minsk), and Bulgaria have the environment to develop professionally.
You retain full control over product development
The engagement model enables you to manage your team as you do your in-house one, while we give you the necessary tools and provide our continued assistance. Also, you can involve us at any stage of our cooperation so that we help facilitate communication and relationships with your team.
Intellectual Property Protection
