Why Armenia

The nearshore hub most teams overlook

Armenia is one of the fastest-growing tech hubs in the region — deep engineering talent, strong English, a favourable tax regime, and a 1–3 hour overlap with the UK, EU, and the Gulf. Closer and more convenient than most offshore options, at a fraction of Western-Europe cost.

Common Questions

Building an engineering team in Armenia

What does it cost to build an engineering team in Armenia?

Engineering talent in Armenia typically costs 60–70% less than equivalent seniority in Western Europe. You pay a single monthly rate that can bundle salary, employer taxes, office, equipment, and HR — with no hidden setup fees.

How fast can you set up a team?

From a 30-minute brief, we can have a working team on the ground the same month — typically under four weeks for the first hires, faster for roles where we already have vetted candidates in our network.

Do we manage the engineers or do you?

You direct the work, priorities, and roadmap. We handle everything around it: recruitment, the legal employer relationship, payroll, office, equipment, and local HR. In the Full Managed Team model we also provide on-the-ground people management.

Is this the same as an Employer of Record (EOR)?

EOR is one of the three models we offer. Unlike a pure EOR platform, we also source and vet the engineers and — if you want — run the physical office and team in Yerevan, so you get people plus operations, not just payroll compliance.

What happens if a hire does not work out?

Every placement is backed by a replacement guarantee — a free replacement within the first 90 days, for any reason.

Why Armenia specifically?

Armenia is a fast-growing tech hub (often called the "Silicon Valley of the Caucasus") with a deep pool of engineers, strong English, a favourable tax regime, and a 1–3 hour time-zone overlap with the UK, EU, and the Gulf — closer and more convenient than most offshore options.
