AppNiv, based in Cluj-Napoca, builds and supports dedicated Romanian software development teams and R&D centers for companies based abroad. Clients have included HiBob, an Israeli HR tech company running its R&D site in Romania since 2017, and Imubit, an Israeli industrial AI firm that established a Romania-based R&D site in 2025. Other engagements have spanned UK-based Rimo3, an intelligent automation company, and Cloudtag Onitor, a health and fitness tracker business.
Work centers on senior engineers with expertise in backend, frontend, and mobile development, using languages and frameworks including Java, C#, and React. Rather than staffing isolated contractors, AppNiv positions each dedicated team as an integral part of the client's own R&D organization, embedded into existing product and engineering structures. Management extends beyond technical delivery to cover the full lifecycle of building a local team: recruitment, retention, legal setup, and the cultural aspects of integrating a Romanian team with an overseas headquarters.
Track record includes long-running site relationships, such as the HiBob R&D site operating since 2017 and the Rimo3 engagement spanning 2018 to 2025, alongside newer work like the 2025 Imubit R&D site. Earlier work with Cloudtag Onitor between 2015 and 2018 reflects experience in health and fitness technology as well as enterprise IT and HR tech sectors.
