Continuing to grow its R&D capabilities, DataArt announced the opening of a second development center in the Ukraine, in the city of Kharkov. This is the fourth R&D facility for DataArt, with two in Russia (St. Petersburg and Voronezh), and two in the Ukraine (Kherson and Kharkov).
Kharkov R&D center will be focused on projects in the financial vertical. It currently employs 20 engineers, with up to 100 to be hired by the end of the year. "Kharkov has a very strong academic base, and a rather dispersed HR market. The opening of a facility in Kharkov allows DataArt to strengthen its financial software expertise while providing quality employment for local residents," said Michael Zaitsev, CEO of DataArt.
