Ekco

Ekco is a European managed service provider built on one core idea: IT and security done right. They're not another generic MSP. They started as specialists in backup and disaster recovery, and that obsession with knowing their customers personally never changed as they grew.

What they actually do: managed cloud services, cyber security, business continuity, disaster recovery, application modernization, and round-the-clock IT support. They've got hundreds of specialists across Ireland, the UK, and Europe. Their customers include Grant Thornton, Nike, The Economist, and World Rugby—names that need their infrastructure to not fail.

The real differentiator is how they work. You get the same dedicated team every time. No rotating support contacts. No excuses, just answers. They dig into your specific challenges, spot risks even outside their remit, and push you toward opportunities you might miss. They say "if we can't share it, we don't do it"—meaning no hidden processes or vendor lock-in.

For engineers and data professionals, this matters: they're hiring cloud architects, security specialists, and infrastructure experts across their European offices. If you want to work on real enterprise infrastructure problems—not theoretical SaaS complexity—with customers that actually depend on uptime, Ekco moves fast and stays ahead of the technology curve. They're "inspired by change," not stuck maintaining legacy stacks.
