Synechron opens Montreal delivery center

Synechron, a New York-headquartered IT consultancy focusing on the financial services industry, has expanded its Montreal presence with a new Canada Delivery Center.

The new center located at 1250 Boul. Rene-Levesque has capacity for 100 employees and replaces Synechron’s original Montreal office. The firm has another Canadian location in Toronto.

Synechron chose Montreal for the delivery center because of its reputation as an AI and digital talent hub.

“Synechron is pleased to expand its Montreal footprint and increase our presence in this diverse and talented community which includes a vast pool of software development tech workers and IT professionals,” said Camille Labat, senior manager for operations at Synechron Montreal. “In close proximity to several major universities, we look forward to welcoming passionate individuals with aligned technical skills, functional knowledge and the desire for the personal development that Synechron offers."

Synechron supports financial services clients across banking, insurance, capital market, payments, and fintech. The firm provides services in technology consulting, data, cloud, payments, architecture, engineering, and design.

Synechron has more than 14,500 people across 43 offices in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.

"We are excited to open our new Montreal nearshore delivery center, just as the Montreal financial services community has given us such a warm welcome for our expanded facility,” said Faisal Husain, Synechron's co-founder and CEO. “As Synechron continues to grow to meet the needs of our clients, we have plans to hire additional skilled talent who want to join our digital transformation mission, and recognize the opportunities that Montreal and its tech business community offers."
