Nearshore IT Talent Solutions in Romania

Romania has emerged as a strategic nearshore destination for global technology teams — offering a rare combination of advanced technical capability, cultural compatibility, and cost efficiency.

With over 140,000 professionals in the IT sector and a deep-rooted culture of innovation in cities like Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, and Timișoara, Romania provides access to highly skilled engineers, architects, analysts, and data specialists who are fluent in both code and communication. Whether you're building digital products, scaling transformation teams, or modernising platforms, Romania’s talent market offers a scalable, dependable alternative to traditional offshore models — one that aligns closely with Western time zones and expectations.
