Building a Stronger Team with TAP: Encodec’s Hiring Success Story

Encodec is a tech innovator specializing in custom software solutions and system integration to help businesses optimize operations and drive growth. At Encodec, hiring exceptional talent is key to fostering innovation and growth.

When the company hired its first TAP graduate from the Software Development cohort, they quickly saw the value beyond just technical expertise—the TAPer brought strong work ethic, adaptability, and fresh ideas.

Following the success of their first hire, Encodec expanded its partnership with TAP, bringing two more TAPers onto the team. We spoke with Mateus Brant, CTO at Encodec, about their experience with TAP graduates and how these hires have positively impacted the company.

A Strong First Impression

“Our first experience with a TAP graduate was excellent,” says Mateus. “They were highly skilled, adaptable, and brought a fresh perspective to our team, making a positive impact from the start.”

This success validated Encodec’s hiring decision, reinforcing that TAP graduates are well-prepared for real-world challenges.

Scaling Success: Why Encodec Hired More TAPers

After seeing the results of their first TAP hire, Encodec didn’t hesitate to bring more TAPers on board. “The success of our first hire demonstrated the quality of TAP’s training and the value these professionals bring,” Mateus explains. “We saw an opportunity to grow our business while supporting a meaningful cause, so hiring more TAP graduates was an easy decision.”

The Value TAPers Bring to Encodec

Beyond technical skills, TAPers bring something even more valuable—resilience, diversity, and a strong work ethic. “Their technical expertise and problem-solving skills have directly contributed to project success and overall company growth,” says Mateus.

With multiple TAPers now embedded in the team, Encodec has experienced firsthand the benefits of their adaptability and drive. “They bring a unique blend of professionalism, creativity, and determination. Their ability to adapt and thrive in new environments has enriched our team dynamic in ways we hadn’t experienced before.”

Talent That Drives Growth

For companies considering hiring from TAP, Mateus has a clear message: “Absolutely. TAP graduates are highly skilled, motivated, and bring diverse perspectives that drive innovation. Hiring them is not only a smart business decision but also a way to support a meaningful initiative.”

Encodec has truly leveraged the power of hiring in MENA and hired not one but three TAPers, a CET Developer and two Data Configuration Specialists. While they embark on their product journey, they have truly uncovered that TAPers are ready to bring innovation, expertise, and a fresh perspective.
