THE SCOPE MERGE WAY
NOT AN OUTSOURCED TEAM.
YOUR TEAM.
Freelancers rotate out and take what they learned. A dedicated engineer stays, builds domain knowledge, and is still productive a year later. Employed long-term through us, fully part of your team.

WHY I BUILT SCOPE MERGE
I’VE LIVED
BOTH SIDES OF THIS.
I grew up in Tunisia, studied electrical engineering at TU München, and have spent the last 15 years in German tech. AI consulting at PwC Deutschland, then Head of Operations at Motor AI, a Berlin based autonomous driving company.
I kept seeing the same gap from both sides: German engineering companies unable to hire fast enough, and world class Tunisian engineers with no clear path into European teams. Almost the same time zone, strong technical training, a compatible work culture, and nothing that connected the two sides. So I built it.
