An IT staffing agency in Europe built on Swiss precision and nearshore talent
Hiring senior engineers in Europe has become a slow and expensive scramble. As a Swiss-run IT staffing agency serving companies across Europe, Bertoni opens another route: senior Latin American developers who speak fluent English, cost far less than a local hire, and share a working-day overlap that keeps collaboration live every afternoon.

Trusted by companies of all sizes
Why hiring senior engineers across Europe keeps getting harder
Europe's technology market is deep but fragmented. Demand for senior engineers runs well ahead of supply in every major hub, from London and Amsterdam to Berlin, Zurich, and Paris, and the continent carries a well-documented digital skills gap. Hiring across borders then adds language, payroll, and compliance friction on top of the shortage.
Compensation reflects the squeeze. Senior engineers in Western Europe's leading hubs command high salaries once benefits and employer costs are counted, and the strongest candidates move quickly.
The constraint is rarely budget alone. It is finding proven senior talent at all. An IT staffing agency in Europe that reaches beyond any single national market changes that math.

Frequently asked questions
If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact our team, who will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
1. What makes Bertoni an IT staffing agency built for Europe?
We are run from Switzerland and place senior Latin American engineers with companies across Europe. You get Swiss-standard delivery, fluent English, a real daily overlap, and a cost well below local hiring, from one accountable partner.
2. How much of the working day will we share?
Latin American mornings overlap European afternoons for roughly five to seven hours each day, enough for live standups, reviews, and pairing rather than an overnight handoff.
3. Do your engineers speak fluent English?
Yes. Our Latin American engineers work in fluent English and are used to cross-border, multicultural teams, so language is not a barrier for European companies.
4. How does the cost compare to hiring locally in Europe?
Our senior engineers come in well below Western European salaries, and without local employer overhead. You add senior capacity for less than a comparable hire in London, Zurich, or Berlin.
5. Who handles cross-border contracts and compliance?
We do. Bertoni holds the engagement and contracts, so you avoid the payroll, tax, and legal overhead of employing someone directly in another country.
6. How quickly can you fill a role?
Two to four weeks from the first call to a contributing engineer, with a shortlist in days, far faster than a cross-border local search plus notice periods.
7. Which roles do you staff for European teams?
Software developers, data engineers and scientists, QA and DevOps engineers, UI and UX designers, project managers, and AI and machine learning specialists, across fintech, SaaS, and industry.
