Software Development Companies in Romania

Updated on May 22nd, 2025
Romania's flag

We won’t blame you if the first thing that comes to mind when you hear “Romania” is Dracula. But those pale, hooded figures you see walking around at night? They’re probably not vampires—they’re Romanian software developers pulling a late-night sprint.

In all seriousness, Romania is quickly becoming one of Europe’s most promising tech hubs. According to HackerRank, Romanian developers average a score of 81.9/100 across 15 development challenges, placing them among the most capable programmers globally. And if you narrow that down to just the best software development companies in Romania, the average would likely be even higher.

As of 2022, Romania has around 50,000 software engineers. While that may not rival larger tech markets, the country’s focus on growing its IT sector is notable. For example, Code Kids, a national initiative teaching children digital skills, was recently shortlisted for Emerging Europe’s Future-Proof Education award.

While the pipeline for future developers looks strong, Romania’s current talent is already making waves in global outsourcing. Romanian software engineers are in high demand, particularly for their expertise in Java, Python, DevOps, machine learning, and full-stack web development.

The best software development companies in Romania also bring deep specialization in:

Romania offers a powerful combination of technical proficiency, cost-effectiveness, and European Union data compliance, making it an ideal nearshore or offshore partner for your next project.

To help you identify the right match, we’ve created a curated list of the 15 best software development companies in Romania, including their hourly rates, tech specializations, and industries served.

Steps to Take Before Outsourcing Software Development

Software Developer Thinking

The 7 Essential Steps for Choosing a Software Development Company

1. Get Referrals or Look at Ratings

Start with reputation. If someone you trust has worked with a Romanian software company, ask for their insights. If you’re starting from scratch, verify credibility through:

We've vetted the companies on our list, but doing your own research ensures added confidence.

2. Find Out What the Company Specializes In

Check the company’s site, service pages, and LinkedIn profiles to understand their core strengths. Does the company focus on cloud development, custom software, mobile app development, or something else?

A strong match between their specialty and your project requirements means less ramp-up time and better outcomes.

3. Read Their Portfolio

Nothing beats experience. Review portfolios and case studies to see if the company has worked on:

  • Projects similar in size or complexity
  • Solutions tailored to your industry
  • Technologies your project requires (e.g., Python, React, .NET)

If they can’t share full details due to NDAs, request high-level overviews or anonymized summaries of past projects.

4. What’s Their Project Management Approach?

Most Romanian development firms follow Agile methodologies such as Scrum or Kanban. This approach ensures:

  • Iterative delivery
  • Frequent testing
  • Flexibility for mid-project changes
  • Regular feedback loops

Ask about their sprint structure, delivery timelines, and how they incorporate client input during development.

5. How Will You Communicate?

Communication is key, especially when you’re not in the same office—or even the same time zone. Before you sign, clarify:

  • Which tools you’ll use (Slack, Jira, Zoom, etc.)
  • How often you’ll meet (daily standups, weekly check-ins)
  • Whether you’ll have a dedicated account or project manager
  • Language fluency (most Romanian teams are proficient in English)

6. Where’s the Company Located?

Romania is in GMT+2, making it:

  • Nearshore for companies in Western Europe
  • Offshore for companies in the U.S.

Time zone differences can work if properly managed, especially for Agile teams with overlapping working hours or flexible schedules.

If you’re pursuing staff augmentation, make sure your time zones align enough for real-time collaboration.

7. A Final Tip About the Costs

You may be outsourcing to Romania to reduce costs, but be careful not to prioritize price over quality. Hiring a bargain team that fails to deliver could result in:

  • Delayed timelines
  • Higher remediation costs
  • Total project failure

Always look for cost-effectiveness, not the lowest bid. Paying slightly more for proven expertise is almost always worth it.
