About

About Scoros International: decades of building engineering teams abroad

Scoros International, Inc. has built and run dedicated engineering teams abroad for North American companies since 2002. Today we build AI-native teams, set up and run by us, with a written option for the client to take them in-house.

Our story

From offshore R&D to AI-native teams you own

Scoros started by building research and development teams abroad for North American technology companies. Over the years we set up engineering facilities in more than ten countries [needs confirmation] and ran more than 200 R&D projects, with teams from a dozen people to several hundred.

The work has always been the same at its core: choose the right place, hire people who meet the client's bar, and run the operation so the client can focus on the product.

Two things have changed. Companies want to own their engineering capacity, not rent it. And AI tools have changed what a strong team looks like. So we now build AI-native teams under a build-operate-transfer model, designed from day one so the client can take them in-house.
