SFEIR

SFEIR is a technology consulting company founded in 1989 that builds digital solutions, places engineering expertise on client projects, and delivers technical training through its own institute. The firm employs 950 experts across eight European agencies, working on problems such as deploying Kubernetes clusters across clouds, architecting microservices at scale, and helping enterprises navigate AI-first transformation. Its technical domains include cloud computing, Google Cloud, generative AI and software craftsmanship.

Alongside client work, SFEIR maintains three proprietary initiatives. PlayOffs is a technical assessment process used to validate the demonstrated capability of every team member before hiring and onboarding. SFEIR Institute is the training arm through which consultants teach the next generation of engineers alongside their project work. RAISE is a generative AI platform that the company builds with internally, not merely markets. In 2025 SFEIR was named Google Cloud Training Partner of the Year for EMEA.

The company describes itself as founded on combining technological excellence with human values, organised around three principles: radical technical expertise, continuous learning and genuine human connection. Employees, known as Sfeirians, are characterised as a community that pushes each other to grow and shares knowledge freely. Careers follow a skill-based model in which trajectory tracks competencies and aspirations rather than a rigid org chart, and consultants work on real client projects by day while training engineers through the Institute.
