Adaptiq

Building engineering teams for product companies in Eastern Europe

In Eastern Europe, Adaptiq builds research and development teams for technology companies and keeps growing them. The firm says it works with product businesses that need engineers but do not want to build a hiring and operations function themselves. It finds and screens candidates, then runs the local team so that the client can work with it as an extension of its own staff. Adaptiq says it has more than ten years of experience in this work and builds its relationships with clients on long-term trust.

Ways of working with a client

The company offers several models. A client can ask for its own engineering site, a dedicated research and development or operations centre run for that client. Talent search means each candidate is selected by the firm, and the client takes part in screening and interviewing before anyone is hired. Co-sourcing means the local team works alongside the client's own people on shared goals. Its QA as a service offer provides software quality assurance from a managed team. Adaptiq says clients pick and pay only for the services their business needs, and it describes a work-from-anywhere arrangement that it introduced after remote working became common.

Sectors and project types

The firm groups its work into several domains. These include cybersecurity platforms that detect threats and protect sensitive data, mobile advertising platforms that automate the buying and selling of ads, and software that monitors the health and quality of semiconductor chips during production. It also supports companies building AI and machine learning analytics that process large data sets, website-building platforms, and digital transformation for fast-growing companies. Its transport and logistics work covers digital systems meant to improve road safety, traffic flow and congestion.

The company describes two cases. In one it built and scaled a research and development team for a website builder. In the other it set up a multidisciplinary research and development centre for a logistics platform. Adaptiq says these examples show its approach of finding engineers, engaging the client in hiring and then giving the team a shared goal.
