Extend your team. Keep full control
Whether you’re facing talent shortages, struggling to find niche expertise, or scaling faster than your hiring pipeline allows – NTQ Europe helps you stay ahead without compromise.
With direct access to Vietnam’s growing IT talent pool, home to over 300,000 skilled professionals including developers, testers, solution architects, and project managers, we help you augment your team with speed and precision.
Flexible Augmentation Models
Not every project needs a full team, and not every challenge can be solved by hiring one developer. That’s why NTQ Europe offers flexible engagement levels to match your team structure, delivery goals, and workload.
Individual Resource Augmentation
For teams that need to fill specific skill gaps fast. Whether it’s a backend developer for a microservice, a QA engineer for test automation, or a Business Analyst for backlog grooming, we provide skilled professionals ready to plug into your current team. You stay in control of task management and delivery, while we handle sourcing, onboarding, and retention.
Cross-functional Squad Augmentation
When you need more than just extra hands, we build a dedicated mini team tailored to your project. A typical squad includes developers, QA engineers, and optionally a PM or Scrum Master, all aligned to your product goals and sprint cadence. You manage priorities; we ensure team cohesion, collaboration, and velocity.
Functional Unit Extension
For businesses looking to expand an entire function (like QA, DevOps, or Mobile Development), we help you build out an offshore department that mirrors your internal processes and culture. This model is ideal for scaling sustainably without the overhead of full-time hiring or operational management.
You can start small with a single remote developer to fill a critical skill gap, build a ready-to-go agile squad, or extend entire functions like QA or mobile development. Our staff augmentation services are designed to support real-world delivery needs: fast onboarding, seamless collaboration, and no overhead of full-time hiring.
NTQ Europe helps you stay lean and move fast, without compromising quality or control.

FAQs
What’s the difference between staff augmentation and outsourcing?
Staff augmentation gives you full control over the resources.They work as part of your team, using your tools, following your process. Outsourcing typically means the vendor manages the delivery. With augmentation, you manage the “how” – we just provide the “who”.
How do you match the right candidates to my needs?
Once we understand your project requirements, tech stack, and team setup, we start identifying suitable candidates from our internal pool and recruitment network. You’ll receive detailed profiles to review and can conduct interviews or technical assessments as needed. We work closely with you throughout the process to ensure the chosen talent fits both technically and culturally.
Do your engineers speak English and understand global collaboration?
Yes. All our engineers are tested for communication and soft skills. They’re experienced in remote collaboration, familiar with Agile/Scrum, and used to working across borders with clients in Europe, the US, and Japan.
Can I scale the team up or down later?
Absolutely. Our model is built for flexibility. You can add more roles as the project grows or reduce headcount if needs change, with minimal lead time and zero legal overhead on your side.
How do you ensure data security and intellectual property protection?
Safeguarding your intellectual property and sensitive data is our top priority. We enforce strict security protocols, including data encryption, network infrastructures, and comprehensive confidentiality agreements to ensure a secure development environment.
