01Market

About Portugal tech talent.

Why we hire in Portugal.

Portugal has become a serious European tech hub, centred on Lisbon and Porto, with strong full-stack, cloud and engineering talent and a large base of international tech offices and nearshore centres. English fluency is high across technical teams.

Its position is a genuine bridge — working-hours overlap with both Europe and the Americas, at costs below Western European bands. For clients building distributed teams it is a low-friction nearshore option: the supply is real, and the main constraint is competing with the many international employers that have set up locally to hire the same people.


02Process

How an engagement runs.

The same three steps in every region — Portugal included.

  1. 01

    Brief

    Send the role. You get a reply within 24 hours with timing, fit, and an honest market read — even if the answer is "wrong shop."

  2. 02

    Shortlist

    Two to four active searches at a time, so each one moves at offer speed. Three CVs that fit beats thirty that don't.

  3. 03

    Interview to offer

    Direct with the founder end-to-end — the same email thread from intro to placement, no account-manager hand-off.
