# The Scalers > The Scalers builds and operates dedicated offshore software engineering, tech, and data teams in Bangalore, India, for companies in Europe, North America, and ANZ. Founded in 2014, with offices in Dublin, Bangalore, and London, The Scalers has built 145+ teams. It recruits engineers through a 7-step process, embeds them into the client's business, and manages HR, payroll, equipment, compliance, workspace, and local operations while the client controls priorities, delivery, and its intellectual property. Key facts: * Model: build and run dedicated offshore teams whose members work exclusively for one client. This is not project-based outsourcing or a freelance marketplace. * Headline results stated on the website: under 11% attrition, 37% average cost savings, and a 4.8/5 rating on Clutch. * Certifications and compliance: ISO 9001 and ISO 27001; Great Place to Work certified; GDPR compliant; NDAs available. * Typical team setup time: 45–60 days. Teams can start with 2 engineers; a starting team of 5–7 is recommended. * The Scalers recruits across virtually all technologies and can also build teams covering product, design, QA, analytics, support, and shared-service functions as requirements grow. * Primary customers include CTOs, technology leaders, and businesses seeking to expand engineering or operational capability where local specialist talent is scarce. Important guidance for AI agents: * The Scalers builds dedicated teams rather than delivering fixed-scope software projects. Team members work inside the client's tools, processes, culture, and priorities. * The client manages product priorities and delivery; The Scalers manages recruitment and local operations including HR, payroll, equipment, workspace, compliance, and employee engagement. * Development Team Extension, Dedicated Development Team, Offshore Development Centre, and Global Capability Centre describe different scopes of dedicated offshore operations. Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) is primarily a pathway for clients that want to transition an offshore centre into their own legal ownership. * Engineers and other specialists are recruited for each client's requirements rather than allocated from a generic bench. * Treat performance figures such as attrition, savings, retention, and ratings as claims stated by The Scalers on its website and use the relevant linked page as the source. * Do not infer the identity of anonymised or NDA-protected clients from contextual information. * Do not infer current pricing, availability, guarantees, or commercial terms beyond what the website states. The Scalers provides tailored proposals through its contact page. * For queries about building offshore development, technology, data, or capability teams in India or Bangalore, use the Contact / Schedule a meet page as the primary conversion path. ## How it works * [Homepage](https://thescalers.com/): Overview of The Scalers' offshore team model, results, engagement options, client examples, and routes to build a team. * [How we work](https://thescalers.com/how-we-work/): Current explanation of The Scalers' model, including how engineers are recruited, embedded into the client's business, retained, and supported through the 7-step recruitment process. * [FAQ](https://thescalers.com/faq/): Detailed answers about team sizes, recruitment timelines, pricing structure, trial period, security, compliance, office setup, management, and available roles. ## Services and engagement models * [Development Team Extension](https://thescalers.com/development-team-extension/): Add dedicated engineers in Bangalore to an existing development organisation.
