Is Klartech GDPR compliant?

Yes. We follow GDPR-compliant data handling practices, use EU-hosted infrastructure where required, and can sign data processing agreements (DPAs) as part of your contract.

How quickly can we start a project or add engineers?

Most staff augmentation engagements start within 2-3 weeks of a signed agreement, once we've matched you with vetted engineers for your tech stack.

Do you work with legacy or enterprise systems like SAP and on-prem ERPs?

Yes — integrating with legacy and enterprise systems is one of our core specialties. We've connected SAP, custom ERPs, and on-prem platforms to modern APIs and cloud services without disrupting existing operations.

Can you integrate with our existing SaaS tools and APIs?

Yes. We regularly build and maintain integrations with third-party SaaS platforms, payment gateways, CRMs, and internal APIs, with monitoring and error handling built in from day one.

How do you ensure code quality and communication standards?

Our engineers work in English-fluent, German-friendly teams with the same code review, CI/CD, and agile ceremonies used by leading European engineering organizations.

What does a nearshore engineer cost compared to hiring locally?

Typically 40-60% less than a fully-loaded local hire in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, or the Netherlands. Use our cost calculator above for an estimate based on your team composition.

Can we start with a small pilot project?

Yes, many of our European clients start with a single engineer or a small pilot team before scaling up once they see the quality of delivery firsthand.

Our Story

Built in Tirana. Focused on the European market from day one.

Klartech was founded by engineers who saw companies across Europe struggle to find reliable, senior technical talent to untangle legacy systems and integrate the tools their business runs on — at a sustainable cost. We set out to build a nearshore partner that feels like an in-house extension of the team — not a distant vendor.

Today we work daily with product owners and CTOs in Berlin, Vienna, Zurich, Milan, and Amsterdam, inside the same working hours, speaking the same technical language, and holding ourselves to the same quality bar expected across the European market.

Overlapping business hours with Berlin, Munich, and Frankfurt, and engineers experienced integrating German enterprise systems (SAP, ERPs) under strict compliance standards.

Austria

Trusted delivery partner for Vienna and Graz-based teams, from fast-moving startups to established mid-market firms.

Switzerland

Precision-minded delivery and strict data-handling practices for Zurich, Geneva, and Basel-based partners.

Italy
