The Iași Development Center is a very important strategic step, well prepared for over a year. The capital of Moldova competed with other centers in the country and abroad, including Bucharest. The success model applied in Cluj-Napoca and Timișoara and the high level of IT specialists in the two offices, resulting in an important increase in both centers, and had a particular weight in the final decision.

Like 3Pillar’s other two locations in Romania, Iași is a city that attracts some of the top technical talent in the world. We’re excited to have started bringing on board a number of new members of the 3Pillar family in Iași, and we are looking to grow the team substantially by the end of the year. Anyone in Iași who’s interested in being part of high-performing teams, working on cutting-edge technology products, and building a great company culture should get to know 3Pillar.” said David DeWolf, CEO of the company.
