Challenge, approach, and impact
Building an Entirely New Engineering Team
Assembling an engineering team from scratch for Enhesa required finding the right expertise in a short period. Balancing speed and quality in the hiring process was a significant challenge.
Focusing on EHS Expertise
The platform demanded expertise in Environment, Health, and Safety regulations. Identifying and attracting such specialized talent in a competitive market posed a notable challenge.
Establishing a Tech Hub in Portugal
Creating a physical presence for Enhesa in Portugal required logistical coordination, sourcing local talent, and aligning with regional regulations - a multi-faceted challenge.
Testimonials
“In an industry such as the tech one, where computers play a major role, it’s refreshing to account on a partner that is human, open, sensitive, and understandable as KWAN. We have a very good relationship, the communication and follow up work very well, which allows us to feel comfortable to talk about an issue before it turns into a problem. As a scrum master, I tell my team: waste my time so you don’t need to waste yours, and the same goes for KWAN, because they already shortlisted the candidates before sending me a CV, they get to waste theirs, so I don’t need to waste mine!“ Read more
