French-speaking management
An offshore team in Vietnam, managed in French
GoLive Software is run by Vincent Roye, a French engineer based in Vietnam since 2014. He scopes your project and follows it in French; the senior Vietnamese developers work with your team in English. You get one French-speaking lead who is accountable for delivery, and developers who work in the industry's shared language.
Who speaks French, and when
French is for understanding the need: scoping, business rules, priorities, escalations and the regular follow-up of the engagement are handled in French with Vincent Roye, the founder.
English is for building it: the developers read specifications, tickets, documentation and code reviews in English, like any senior developer. We do not sell developers who code in French, because it would cost you more without making the code better.
What you get
- One French-speaking lead: the founder selects the developers, follows every engagement and steps in on architecture decisions.
- Senior developers: at least 5 years of professional experience, English-speaking, dedicated full-time (8 hours a day, 5 days a week).
- Fast start: 2 to 3 pre-selected CVs within 48 hours, start within 7 business days on average.
- No commitment: no recruitment fee, no minimum term. The rate is sent with the CVs.
Who it is for
Startups and SMEs in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg and other French-speaking markets that want to scope in their own language without paying Paris rates for the development itself. GoLive Software also works with teams outside French-speaking markets, in Singapore and Australia.
Time zone
Ho Chi Minh City is on GMT+7: five hours ahead of France in summer, six in winter. The European morning overlaps with the Vietnamese afternoon, enough for a daily stand-up, a live code review or a demo.
