You are 100% part of the team and project! 

We pride ourselves on our unique concept of nearshoring where our teams fully blend into our international client’s software development processes and are fully dedicated to our client’s projects. 

Where would you be working from? Our offices, located in a shared office space in the National Stadium of Warsaw, in the cool Saska Kepa area.
