As part of N-iX’s strategic global expansion, Romania has quickly established itself as a key location in our delivery network. Since opening our Bucharest office in 2023, the country has proven to be more than just a nearshore destination — it’s a hub of talent, speed, and technological expertise. Dan Bucureanu, Delivery Director at N-iX Romania, shares why this Eastern European market is gaining momentum and what sets it apart.
A Proven Outsourcing Powerhouse
Romania brings a deep-rooted history in IT outsourcing. With over 300,000 professionals working in tech, it is one of the most developed IT sectors in the region. “Romania has a very rich heritage in outsourcing,” Dan explains. “We have all the major technologies — Java, .NET, React, Fullstack — you name it. And we can build a strong delivery team within just 4-5 weeks.”
The country’s performance is backed by data, too. A recent Stanford study cited Romanian developers as being 50% more efficient than the global average — a testament to the quality and speed clients can expect.
Strong Industry Expertise
The Romanian market offers robust technical capabilities across several verticals. Automotive remains a core industry, supported by the presence of major OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers. In recent years, Romania has also seen rapid growth in green energy, IoT, battery management systems, and embedded software.
In addition, financial services, e-commerce, and retail are significant focus areas. Local engineering talent combines strong technical expertise with business understanding, enabling N-iX Romania to deliver end-to-end solutions rather than simply providing staff augmentation. This integration of technology and domain knowledge allows for greater ownership and accountability at every stage of delivery.
Talent That Chooses Innovation
What attracts engineers to N-iX Romania? According to Dan, it’s the entrepreneurial spirit of the company and the opportunity to work on modern, cutting-edge technologies.
“A lot of engineers are coming from large corporations where they’re stuck in legacy systems. At N-iX, we also take on smaller, startup-style projects. That means we’re using the latest tools and approaches.”
Flexibility is another key draw. While many large enterprises are mandating return-to-office policies, N-iX embraces a remote-first mindset: “As long as you’re productive, we don’t care where you work from,” Dan says. “We want you to feel satisfied and motivated.”
Beyond project opportunities, N-iX also invests in long-term career growth. Engineers benefit from dedicated mentorship programs and access to architectural communities. The company also fully covers the cost of professional certifications, empowering team members to deepen their expertise and stay ahead in a fast-changing tech landscape.
Seamless Integration with a Global Delivery Model
Though relatively new, the Romanian office is fully embedded into N-iX’s global delivery framework. Every new team member gets a “buddy” during onboarding — a mentor who helps them navigate the company culture and processes. Co-working hubs in all major cities provide flexible collaboration spaces, and teams are often built with specialists from multiple countries.
“We put the client first,” Dan emphasizes. “If they need a team fast, we’ll assemble it in the geography that works best for them — even if that means cross-border, distributed teams. Technology bridges the distance.”
Looking Ahead
As part of N-iX’s global team, our Romanian hub combines technical excellence with an entrepreneurial mindset — offering engineers the chance to work on meaningful, international projects using the latest technologies. With a strong foundation in Bucharest and ambitious plans for growth, we’re building a place where talent thrives and careers accelerate.
