Clarity beats cleverness
A boring architecture you can debug at 3am wins over a clever one that nobody else understands.
GDPR ISO 27001 AI-native
Senior engineering for US & EU teams
YuSMP Group is a senior-only software engineering company building SaaS, fintech, healthtech and AI products for US and European customers. We pair clear architecture with quiet delivery and ship things that survive audits, peak traffic and the second year in production.
Our story
How we got here
YuSMP Group was founded in 2017 as a small product engineering team helping growth-stage companies build durable backends and product platforms. For years we worked across Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Middle East, learning what makes engineering teams reliable at the third release rather than the first.
In 2024 we repositioned to serve both the US and EU markets with EU-grade compliance as our baseline. The reasoning was practical: regulation in Europe started rewarding engineering rigor instead of penalizing it — GDPR, NIS2, DORA and MDR turned good practice into procurement requirements — while US buyers were asking the same questions through SOC 2, HIPAA and CCPA. We built one engineering bar that satisfies both regimes.
In 2026 we made AI-native delivery our default. Every team uses a measured set of AI tools inside a code-review and security envelope, so velocity goes up without quality going down. We don't ship demos. We ship products that pay rent.

Beliefs
What we believe
Senior-only teams
We don't bench-warm juniors on client budgets. Every name on the SOW is someone who can own a system end to end.
Regulation is a feature
GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2 and HIPAA aren't paperwork. They're a forcing function for engineering we'd want anyway.
AI with a leash
AI tools accelerate good engineers and embarrass weak ones. We use them inside review and security gates.
Culture
Engineering culture
We hire for taste and stamina. Engineers ship behind feature flags, review each other's work in detail, and own their services in production. Pagers are quiet because the systems are designed that way, not because nobody's looking.
Senior-only Code review Continuous delivery SRE-aware
Compliance
Compliance & security
We work GDPR-aligned by default with EU data residency (US options on request), run ISO 27001-aligned controls, and have SOC 2 Type II in progress. We are HIPAA-capable for US health workloads and CCPA-acknowledged for California consumer data. Every engagement starts under NDA. DPAs and SCCs are stock paperwork, not a special request. Pen-tests, SBOMs and SCA scans are part of the release pipeline.
