A world-class nearshore center, built in Lisbon.
Breakwater Technology, a leading Estonian tech company, partnered with Xpertsoft to build its nearshore engineering operation in Portugal, and grew it into a 20+ person team that works as one with Estonia.

Not just talent. The right partner.
Breakwater needed a trusted partner to establish a nearshore operation in Portugal. Not just engineers, but the right mindset, the agility to grow with them, and a commitment to long-term success. Here is how that partnership grew.
Partnership initiated with Breakwater Technology.
Rapid team growth and a dedicated office established in Lisbon.
20+ professionals, and continuously expanding.
Close enough to cross borders.
A close nearshore relationship does not mean sitting in the same office every day. It means staying close to the client's people and context. Consultants onsite in Tallinn, Breakwater in Lisbon, and real moments together along the way.

Working with the client's team
Consultants travel to Breakwater's headquarters in Tallinn to work directly alongside the client's team.

Together in Portugal
Breakwater visits Lisbon regularly, for shared meals and working sessions that keep both teams connected.

Team-building together
Moments beyond delivery that build the trust the day-to-day work relies on.
We have been working with Xpertsoft for several years, and it has been a great partnership from the very beginning. Their developers have become a natural part of our teams, and we have always appreciated their professionalism, reliability, and positive attitude.
The collaboration has been smooth, transparent, and built on trust. It's a pleasure to work with people who genuinely care about delivering quality and being a true partner.
We highly recommend Xpertsoft to anyone looking for a reliable nearshore development partner.
This is what embedded nearshore looks like.
A nearshore team can operate as a true extension of the client, not a distant supplier.
In-person moments, in both countries, keep remote delivery close and trusted.
A long-term partnership scales, from the first hire to a 20+ engineer center.
Build a nearshore team that works like part of your own.
