Xenia Tech

Xenia Tech is a software development firm based in Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, with an office in London. The company was founded to provide dedicated development teams and custom software solutions to startups and enterprises seeking cost-effective offshore development. Led by Director Will Macfarlane (who relocated to Vietnam in 2016 after working as COO at Rota) and CTO Hoang Vo (15 years in IT), Xenia Tech has delivered over 100 projects. The company positions itself around the tagline "from Eureka to Reality" and claims to save clients up to 60% through dedicated offshore teams.

Services and capabilities

Xenia Tech's core offering is hiring dedicated developers who work full-time solely on client projects. The company also handles MVP development, scoped and designed for startups preparing to fundraise. Beyond staffing, they deliver custom software, mobile app development (React Native, Flutter, Swift), web development (React, Angular, Vue), e-commerce platforms (Shopify, Magento, WordPress), and QA/testing services.

They also offer DevOps services including CI/CD pipeline implementation, cloud infrastructure management across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, containerization with Docker and Kubernetes, infrastructure as code (Terraform, Ansible), and continuous monitoring using Prometheus, Grafana, and Datadog. Their DevOps team consists of engineers with 8+ years of experience.

A newer vertical is AI/ML solutions: AI-powered data analytics, automation, custom machine learning models, NLP (chatbots, voice recognition, sentiment analysis), and AI consulting. They claim adherence to GDPR in this practice.

How they work

Xenia Tech operates a flexible engagement model. Clients can hire dedicated full-time developers, part-time developers (75 hours per month), or Time & Materials hourly arrangements. The company offers discounts for larger teams and provides up to one month of free aftercare for bug fixes post-launch, with optional paid maintenance packages.

For project management and communication, they adapt to client preferences but default to Jira, Trello, Asana, Basecamp, Slack, Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, GitHub, GitLab, Docker, Jenkins, AWS, and Firebase. They claim they can onboard part-time developers or new team members within days. Pricing is described as "on-budget" with transparent rates and no hidden fees, though specific rates are not published on their site.
