Nearshore staffing and software development firm strengthens ties across the state’s growing technology community
DALLAS, TX – ParallelStaff, a nearshore IT staff augmentation and software development firm serving U.S. technology teams, today announced it has joined the Austin Technology Council (ATC), one of the largest technology trade associations in the country. The membership extends ParallelStaff’s presence beyond its Dallas headquarters and into Austin’s technology and startup community, one of the most active innovation hubs in the U.S.
Founded to help U.S. companies scale engineering teams through nearshore software development and staff augmentation, ParallelStaff has grown to a network of over 10,000 engineers in Latin America with clients ranging from high-growth startups to enterprise organizations, including AT&T, AMD, Google, J.Crew, and Whirlpool. The company sources senior talent through its network of top Latin American engineers, holds ISO 27001 certification, ranked No. 502 on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies, and maintains a 4.8-star rating on Clutch.
“Austin’s technology community represents some of the most ambitious engineering teams in the country, and joining ATC gives us a direct line into that ecosystem,” said Luis Peralta, Founder and CEO of ParallelStaff. “Our goal is to build strong relationships with Austin businesses and enterprises, and help their technology teams accelerate delivery on the initiatives and solutions that matter most to them. We look forward to collaborating with local leaders, sharing technical expertise, and creating new opportunities for innovation while supporting organizations as they navigate evolving technology demands and pursue sustainable growth.”
Membership in the Austin Technology Council connects ParallelStaff with a network of technology executives, investors, and companies across the region, and positions the company to participate in ATC’s ongoing programming, industry events, and peer community. The expansion builds on ParallelStaff’s broader delivery model, which spans nearshore IT outsourcing and nearshore dedicated development teams, giving Austin-area technology leaders additional engagement models to draw on as they scale.
ParallelStaff’s engineers work in U.S.-aligned time zones and integrate directly into client teams, tools, and sprint cadences, an approach the company credits for a 94% engineer retention rate on client engagements. This model enables clients to maintain consistent communication, streamline collaboration, and keep development work closely aligned with internal priorities. Rather than operating as a separate external team, ParallelStaff’s engineers become an extension of the client’s existing technology organization, adapting to established processes and development practices. This can help businesses reduce communication gaps, improve project continuity, and maintain momentum across software development initiatives. The company is also a member of the Forbes Technology Council and is active in the North Texas chapters of ISSA and OWASP Foundation. These industry connections further support ParallelStaff’s engagement with technology, cybersecurity, and professional communities, reinforcing its focus on technical expertise, collaboration, and long-term client relationships.
