Staff Augmentation / Outstaffing
What “Staff Augmentation / Outstaffing” means for Lithuania
Lithuania made a deliberate play to become the fintech licensing centre of the European Union, and it worked: a large number of European payment and e-money institutions hold Lithuanian licences. That single policy decision defines most of the country’s software demand.
What shapes software projects in Lithuania
The local conditions we design around, rather than a generic pitch.
- The Bank of Lithuania licences a substantial share of the EU’s electronic money and payment institutions, so a great deal of the local engineering work is payments and regulatory in nature.
- That concentration brings genuine regulatory reporting requirements: transaction monitoring, safeguarding, and supervisory reporting are normal scope rather than edge cases.
- Vilnius and Kaunas are the main centres, with a strong engineering education pipeline behind them.
- Lithuania has a world-class laser and photonics industry, an unusual specialism for a country of this size.
- Eastern European Time, UTC+2, means better India overlap than Western Europe.
Why teams in Lithuania pick Kiebot
- Vetted senior engineers join your existing squad
- Guaranteed 4+ hours of working-day overlap
- Kiebot handles contracts, payroll, replacements, and HR overhead
- Single MSA, transparent monthly invoicing
How an engagement with Lithuania actually runs
Time zones, working weeks and who you sign with. Kiebot has people in India and the UAE; work for other markets is delivered from India.
- Vilnius is UTC+2, UTC+3 in summer, so India is only 3.5 hours ahead in winter and 2.5 in summer, and the working days overlap almost fully.
- Monday to Friday, with Lithuanian Joninės and national holidays in the shared calendar.
- Contracting from India or through Kiecore Technologies LLC in Dubai. No Lithuanian entity and no financial licence of our own.
- For licensed institutions, outsourcing obligations, audit rights, subprocessor approval, exit planning, need agreeing before technical scope.

Work we can point to for Lithuania
Named, public engagements. We would rather show you a relevant project than claim a local client we do not have.
- BILRS: a B2B bill-payment platform whose customers include Al Ansari Exchange, Careem and Edenred. We are its engineering team, covering senior engineering, QA, project management and infrastructure, with contract testing across every biller integration.
- That engagement is directly relevant here: payments reliability, many external integrations, and an on-call practice that treats a failed transaction as an incident rather than a defect.
Frequently asked questions
We hold an EMI licence. Can you work within our regulatory obligations?+
We work inside them; the obligations remain yours. Practically that means agreeing audit rights, disclosing subprocessors for approval, documenting where processing happens and having a real exit plan, all before scope is fixed because they sometimes change the architecture. We hold no financial licence ourselves and never act as a regulated entity.
What payments experience do you actually have?+
BILRS, where we are the engineering team rather than a contributor. It is a B2B bill-payment platform serving customers including Al Ansari Exchange, Careem and Edenred, integrating many payment vendors across corridors. The discipline that engagement forced on us, contract testing every integration, SLO-led on-call, treating a failed payment as an incident, is what we would bring here.
How well do the working hours line up?+
Very well. At UTC+2, or UTC+3 in summer, you are 2.5 to 3.5 hours behind us, so nearly all of your working day is shared with ours. For a payments team that needs quick decisions during an incident, that is a more practical arrangement than a supplier who only overlaps for a morning.
