Client Testimonial

"At SingleOps, we wanted to grow the team so that we could have more work streams with empowered teams solving problems. Hiring nearshore folks from Mexico and Brazil has allowed us to grow strategically with flexibility. We’ve found some strong Rails engineers like Bastien, Ciro and Lucas and QA folks like Carlos who are engaged in our company our culture, asking questions and giving their opinions. That’s when good work is done."
