It’s the early 2000s, and companies are pouring money into digital transformation.A couple of years after graduating, I found myself in the technology department of an Investment Bank.I didn’t know back then, but this experience would put me on a journey that would redefine how businesses access top tech talent.I ended up in financial services product development, digital and organisational transformation for almost 15 years.During this time I learned that more than anything else, the key to success was people – bringing together talented people to collaborate and achieve great things.I had used a wide range of outsourcing, insourcing and talent acquisition services with very mixed results. Then a few years ago I’m having a casual conversation with my friend and co-founder Viktoras. Remote working and distributed teams are on the rise with the backdrop of a global shortage of tech talent, and Lithuania's Fintech presence is booming.This vision quickly becomes Architus.Today, we’re a pioneering tech staffing company that's disrupting the industry by tapping into rich overseas talent pools in amazing places like Lithuania.4 years in and we have more than a dozen successful case study’s.↪ Our partners lower costs by upwards of 50% while accelerating delivery and crucially without compromising on the high quality needed in the many complex financial services domains.Staff Augmentation is proven to be impactful and far-reaching: From scaling a fintech unicorn with expert backend and ML engineers to propelling a legacy financial firm into the digital era.I believe this is just the beginning for Off-Shore Talent and Staff Augmentation.→ The world is embracing remote work and a global talent marketplace.And we've positioned Architus to accelerate this trend by bridging the gap between talent and opportunity on a global scale.If you're a tech leader, startup or an enterprise looking to lower costs while hiring the best talent the world provides…↪ I invite you to explore what we can offer you at Architus.- Individual Hiring- Staff Augmentation- Dedicated Teams- Engineering Centre as a ServiceWe can reshape the future of tech staffing, one exceptional team at a time.Excited to connect and learn more about your vision and goals!
