Join Vantikai

Small team. Real work. Actual impact.

We build three-person teams that deliver what ten-person teams used to promise. If you are senior, hands-on, and done with organisations where most of your week disappears into meetings - this is worth reading.

We do not hire for CVs. We hire for ownership, craft, and the kind of seniority that shows up in judgment - not job titles.

WHO WE HIRE

Senior. Hands-on.
Done with the overhead.

We are not looking for people who manage people who do the work. We are looking for people who do the work - and who are good enough at it that they do not need a large team around them to deliver.

What we look for

01

Senior professionals with deep domain knowledge in their field - engineering, finance, legal, operations, or IT

02

People who have worked inside large organisations and know how they operate - but want to work differently

03

Direct, accountable, and comfortable owning outcomes end to end

04

Collaborative without being dependent - able to work in a tight three-person unit with minimal overhead

05

Curious about AI and willing to work with it as a core part of how they operate - not as a side tool

What we do not hire for

01

Years of experience over quality of judgment

02

CVs that look right but people who need to be managed

03

People looking for a large structure to operate inside

HOW WE WORK

Small teams. Full ownership. No politics.

Every Vantikai team is three people. You know exactly what you own, exactly what is expected, and exactly how your work connects to the outcome. No handovers, no status updates for the sake of it, no waiting for someone three levels up to make a decision.

01

YOUR TEAM

Three people.
No passengers.

Three people. One Domain Expert, two Delivery Specialists. Everyone is senior. Everyone contributes directly. The team is small enough that there is nowhere to hide - and no reason to.

02

YOUR WORK

You know what you own before you start.

Every engagement runs in fixed sprints with committed outcomes agreed upfront. You know what good looks like before you start. The Context Engine gives you the client's full business context from day one, so you spend your time delivering, not catching up.

03

YOUR IMPACT

Close enough to see the result.

You see the results of your work directly. No six-month delay between effort and outcome. No wondering whether what you built was ever used. You are embedded in the client's business, close enough to see the difference you make.

04

YOUR DEVELOPMENT

You get sharper with every engagement.

Working across industries and client types compounds fast. The Context Engine captures what you learn. Every engagement makes you sharper and Vantikai invests in keeping it that way.

OPEN ROLES

What we are hiring for.

We hire for two types of role across both our Engineering and BPO offers. Both require seniority, domain depth, and the ability to work independently in a small, high-trust team.

Skopje,
North Macedonia

DOMAIN EXPERT

The person who knows the industry.

The anchor of every team. You bring deep knowledge of a specific domain — whether that is software engineering, finance, legal, operations, or IT — combined with the ability to translate that knowledge into how the client's business actually runs. You own the context, the client relationship, and the quality of everything the team delivers.

We are currently looking for Domain Experts across:

  • Financial Services
  • Construction & Crafts
  • Hospitality
  • Industry & Production
  • Software Engineering

DELIVERY SPECIALIST
ENGINEERING

The engineer who ships.

You build and deliver software in a small, senior team — AI-accelerated, context-loaded, against committed outcomes. You are not here to estimate tickets or attend standups. You are here to build things that work, in weeks, not quarters.

What we look for:

  • 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience
  • Full-stack or specialised backend/frontend — comfortable owning your layer end to end
  • Fluent with AI-assisted development tools — Cursor, Copilot, or equivalent as a core part of your workflow, not an experiment
  • Experience delivering in short, outcome-based cycles
  • Comfortable reading and working inside an existing codebase from day one
  • Strong written communication — the team is small, clarity matters

Stack: We are technology-agnostic. What matters is that you write clean, production-ready code and know when not to over-engineer.

DELIVERY SPECIALIST
BPO

The operator who runs the process.

You take ownership of a defined business process — Finance, Legal, Administration, or IT — and run it end to end for a client. Embedded in their operations, accountable to their standards, and equipped with the Context Engine from day one.

What we look for:

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in Finance, Legal, Administration, or IT operations
  • Deep familiarity with the tools and workflows of your function — ERP systems, accounting platforms, legal document management, or IT service delivery
  • Comfortable using AI tools to accelerate repetitive tasks and improve output quality
  • Detail-oriented and process-driven — you improve what you run, not just maintain it
  • Strong written communication in English — German or other languages a strong plus for Swiss client engagements

Day 1

Remote

Send us your CV and a short note on who you are and what you do best. No cover letter template. Just tell us what kind of work you are good at and why Vantikai interests you.

02

Intro Call

Duration · 30 minutes

Remote

A straightforward conversation, no trick questions, no panel. We want to understand your background, how you work, and whether there is a fit. You get to ask us the same.

03

Take-home challenge

Duration · 2-3 hours

Remote

For roles where it adds value, we send a short, real-world problem relevant to your domain. Not a test, a conversation starter. If you have a strong portfolio or track record that speaks for itself, we skip this step.

04

Deep Dive

Duration · 1 hour

Personal

An in-depth conversation built around your challenge and your domain. For engineering roles, we go into architecture, tradeoffs, and how you think about delivery. For BPO roles, we dig into how you approach process ownership, edge cases, and quality. No right answers, we want to understand how you think.

05

Meet the team & Offer

Week 2

Personal

If it is a fit, we move fast. You meet the people you will be working with before any decision is made, and if both sides are ready, the offer follows shortly after.

WHERE WE ARE

Skopje. Where the work happens.

Our delivery hub is in Skopje, North Macedonia - a city with a deep pool of senior engineering and professional services talent, a growing technology community, and a cost structure that makes the Vantikai model work. Central European Time, close enough to visit, and a culture that takes craft seriously.

01

THE TALENT

A city that builds serious professionals.

Skopje has quietly built one of the strongest nearshore talent pools in Europe. Senior engineers, finance professionals, and operations specialists who have worked across international clients and are looking for the kind of focused, high-ownership work that Vantikai offers.

02

THE COMMUNITY

Part of the ecosystem, not just in it.

Vantikai is an active part of the Skopje technology and business community. Our co-founder Rade Georgiev sits on the Board of the ICT Chamber of Commerce of North Macedonia - and we invest in the ecosystem we hire from.

03

THE SETUP

Same timezone. Different cost structure.

Central European Time. Modern working environment. Small, focused teams with direct access to Swiss clients. No offshore distance, no communication lag, no being one of hundreds in a large delivery centre.

04

WHAT TO EXPECT

Early enough to matter.

A high-trust environment where your work is visible, your input matters, and your development is taken seriously. Vantikai is early - which means the people who join now shape what it becomes.
