The new office, a key developer hub, is being headed by Erik Nordahl, United Fintech Chief Technology Officer. He will be relocating to Madrid to manager team growth and monitor development of innovative products with focused on the capital market.
Erik Nordahl, CTO of United Fintech, said:
Our expansion in Madrid is a great strategic move, enabling us to continue to access top technology talent for our own initiatives, client projects, and to help scale our portfolio companies. The impact of our global sales force is resulting in increased activity for our portfolio companies and the need for additional resources. If they struggle to recruit developers in their respective locations London, Berlin and Copenhagen we can now source developers for them in Madrid.
Additionally, the development team will support United Fintech portfolio companies Athena Systems, FairXchange, NetDania, and TTMzero.
United Fintech CEO Christian Frahm said:
Sourcing technology skills in the current climate is extremely challenging. There is a fight for technical talent, which has been exacerbated by the Russia/Ukraine situation. With many of our clients increasingly questioning Eastern Europe as a resource hub for development, we have been reviewing alternative options to access the very best talent in the industry. We see great potential in leveraging Athenas already established brand and network within the top talent IT community over the past 15 years.
