The second pillar
People are half of every technology outcome
Traveia is an IT recruitment and staffing company in Kuala Lumpur with the reach to provide high-calibre tech talent on contract, contract-to-permanent and executive placements across Malaysia, India and the Philippines. Staffing is not a side business for us — it is one of our two core pillars alongside AI transformation, and it is where our longest-running Oil & Gas engagements began.
Because the same company also delivers AI, BI and SharePoint projects, the people we place are backed by a delivery organisation — not just a CV database. Pair this with our IT staff augmentation Malaysia model when you need on-demand capacity without permanent headcount.
