Scandinavian Software Park by Monterro

Built for the AI Era

AI has changed the economics of building, securing and running software, and it is reshaping what every engineering team needs to stay ahead. The Software Park has grown to meet that. What began as a way to help our portfolio companies find great engineers now spans the full life of your software, from building it to securing it to keeping it running.

Cyber

Security testing that keeps pace with your releases

Attackers probe your software continuously, but most security testing is a snapshot taken once a year. As the volume of code your team ships increases, every extra line is more surface for something to go wrong. That is why it needs testing regularly, not once a year. With Cyber, we run live attacks against your staging environment on every significant release, so your security testing keeps pace with how fast you now build. Every finding arrives with a working reproduction, so your team knows exactly what to fix and can prove it is fixed. Everything runs inside Europe on Monterro's own infrastructure, and nothing touches production. It gives you year-round coverage between your annual audits, at a cost that makes sense for a growing company.

Accelerate

AI-native engineers, for the work that doesn't fit a hire

Some engineering jobs don't justify new headcount, and hiring for them takes months you don't have. A platform lift, a move from one stack to another, an ambitious prototype: real work with a clear end. Accelerate gives you AI-native engineers from the Software Park in Hanoi, by the week or the month, to take these projects on and roll off when they're done. You meet and approve the people we propose, and your product ownership stays with you. We can also come to you the other way around, spending time with your team in Vietnam to get AI-assisted development working for real inside your own organisation.

Harvest

Keep acquired products alive, without tying up your best engineers

Serial acquirers end up with a handful of older products that still carry paying customers and contracts, but no longer justify a migration. They just need to stay alive, and meanwhile they tie up engineers who should be on your core product. Harvest takes these products off your team's plate. We run the bug fixes, releases and monitoring from Hanoi, steered by your product owner, who stays in charge of what gets done and what counts as small. AI-assisted maintenance keeps the cost of running code nobody loves genuinely low, and there's no migration agenda. We keep a product running for as long as it earns its place, and your engineers go back to building what comes next.

Distributed teams

A dedicated engineering team in Hanoi, part of your own

When finding senior engineers at home becomes the bottleneck on your growth, we build you a dedicated team in Hanoi, recruited to your spec and employed by your company as a full part of your development organisation. We take care of recruitment, administration and office space, so you get the people without the work of setting up abroad. Your new engineers are up and running in weeks, working the way your team works. This is where the Software Park started, and for many of our companies it is the foundation everything else builds on.

What is Scandinavian Software Park?

Scandinavian Software Park by Monterro gives portfolio companies access to top-tier software developers. It began as a way to help our companies find great engineers and now spans the full life of your software, from building it to securing it and keeping it running.

Where is Scandinavian Software Park located?

The engineering teams are based in Hanoi, Vietnam. Security testing in Cyber runs inside Europe on Monterro's own infrastructure.

What services does Scandinavian Software Park offer?

There are four services: Cyber for continuous security testing, Accelerate for AI-native engineers on defined projects, Harvest for maintaining acquired products, and Distributed teams for dedicated engineering teams in Hanoi.

What is Cyber?

Cyber is security testing that keeps pace with your releases. We run live attacks against your staging environment on every significant release, and every finding comes with a working reproduction so your team knows what to fix and can prove it is fixed.

Does Cyber touch our production environment?

No. Testing runs against your staging environment, never production. Everything runs inside Europe on Monterro's own infrastructure and gives you year-round coverage between annual audits.

What is Accelerate?

Accelerate gives you AI-native engineers from the Software Park, by the week or the month, for work that does not justify a new hire. Examples are a platform lift, a move between stacks or an ambitious prototype. We can also spend time with your team to get AI-assisted development working inside your organisation.

Who keeps control of the product when we use Accelerate?

You do. You meet and approve the engineers we propose, and product ownership stays with you.

What is Harvest?

Harvest takes care of older acquired products that still have paying customers but no longer justify a migration. We handle bug fixes, releases and monitoring from Hanoi, steered by your product owner. AI-assisted maintenance keeps costs low and frees your engineers to focus on your core product.

How do distributed teams at Scandinavian Software Park work?

We build a dedicated engineering team in Hanoi, recruited to your specification and employed by your company as part of your development organisation. We take care of recruitment, administration and office space.

How quickly can new engineers get started?

New engineers in a distributed team are usually up and running within weeks, working the same way as the rest of your team.
