KWAN

KWAN is a Portuguese IT Staffing and Team Augmentation partner helping technology companies across Europe scale their engineering capacity without the usual hiring delays, compliance risk, or cost of a direct hire.

We combine rigorous technical vetting, AI-powered sourcing, and human-led people management, so the engineers you bring on integrate fast and actually stay. Every consultant works with a dedicated People Experience Partner, which keeps motivation and retention high instead of resetting every few months. We stay involved after onboarding too, owning performance conversations and continuity gaps so you do not have to.

Delivery adapts to how you work, not the other way around: Portugal-based nearshore teams in your time zone, remote outsourcing embedded in your tools and processes, or hybrid and on-site setups when physical presence matters.

Our roadmap moves fast without cutting corners: define requirements in a day, align on engagement terms within a week, meet vetted profiles matched to your technical and team context within one to two weeks, then choose your start date. First profiles in 5 days, teams live in around 3 weeks.

We cover 100+ technologies across frontend, backend, data and AI, cloud and DevOps, mobile, QA and product, and every engagement is backed by ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certification for information security and privacy.

Over 19 years, we have placed 300+ engineers across 130+ client teams, including companies such as Critical TechWorks, Enhesa, FedEx and Accenture. In one recent case, we filled 66 engineering roles for a client over two years, 24 of them within a single six-month stretch.

KWAN is Tech Talent Done Right: people-first staffing that protects your roadmap, scales with you, and stays accountable long after onboarding.
