Setting up dev hub in Portugal through Newxel Company ended up being way less painful than expected
We were having trouble finding the right people in our area, so we decided to look to Portugal for experienced developers. We teamed up with Newxel Company to take care of the details, and it was a huge relief - it probably saved us months of hassle and stress.
The best part was that they handled all the local rules and regulations, set up the necessary legal framework, and took care of the administrative tasks. This meant we didn't have to worry about creating local branches or figuring out complex labor laws that we weren't used to.
The engineers we worked with were really good from the start. They easily fit into our way of working with GitHub and Jira, it only took them a week to get up to speed. They communicate clearly, and because they're in a similar time zone to Western Europe, we didn't have any problems with delays or confusing paperwork.
If you're trying to scale an engineering team without blowing up your internal HR bandwidth, going through a setup partner like Newxel is a pretty stress-free route.
