HIRE LATAM ENGINEERS
Hire the top 5% of LatAm software engineers. On your team in 14 days.
We're a Caracas-based studio that places vetted senior engineers — Frontend, Backend, Full-stack, DevOps, Mobile, AI — into US tech teams. Working hours adapted to your team, 65% cost reduction vs. a US hire, no operational overhead. You manage the engineer, we manage the contract.
WHY LATAM
The math is hard to argue with.
A senior engineer in San Francisco runs you $245K loaded ($175K base + 40% benefits/tax/recruiting). The same skill set in Latin America: $90K loaded — fully on a US-Delaware invoice, with a Master Services Agreement that covers IP, NDAs and replacement guarantees. Every senior engineer we place has 5+ years of production experience, native or near-native English, and adapts their working hours to your team — whether that's PST, EST, CET or anywhere in between. They join your standup, ship in your repo, write in your Slack — exactly like a remote employee, minus the H-1B paperwork.
WHO WE PLACE
Roles we cover.
We focus on roles where senior judgment compounds: backend systems, distributed infra, ML/AI, and product engineering. We don't source juniors and we don't place "10× rockstars" without proof. Every candidate has shipped meaningful production code in the last 12 months.
HOW WE VET
A 3-stage screen. Less than 5% pass.
We don't do leetcode. We do real work in your stack.
- 01
Live coding in your stack
90-minute paired session solving a representative problem from your domain. We watch debugging instinct, not memorized patterns.
- 02
Systems-design conversation
A 60-minute architecture discussion: trade-offs, failure modes, scale considerations. We listen for hands-on production experience.
- 03
Communication & ownership
45-minute non-technical interview to assess written English clarity, async communication habits, and how they handle ambiguity.

FAQ
Common questions. Honest answers.
How is this different from Toptal or Andela?
Toptal's vetting is broad — they place from 100+ countries with English as a second hurdle. Andela has scaled into a marketplace model where you mostly source yourself. We're a focused boutique: founders interview every senior we place, we work primarily with LatAm talent we know personally or have referrals for, and our pricing reflects no public-company overhead. Lower cost, higher signal per candidate.
What happens if the engineer doesn't work out?
You give us 30 days notice and we replace them, or you cancel — no claw-back. Replacement candidates are pre-screened against your role spec and we present them within 7 days. We absorb the lost-week cost, not you.
Can the engineer work directly in our codebase?
Yes. They're integrated like any remote employee: your repos, your CI/CD, your Slack, your standups. We don't insert ourselves between you and the engineer. You evaluate their commits, you decide their roadmap, you give them direct feedback.
What about IP and NDA?
Every contract includes a clean IP assignment clause: anything the engineer produces while engaged with you is yours, fully and exclusively. NDAs available before the first technical conversation. We never reuse code, designs, or proprietary data from one client on another.
Do you offer team placements (squads)?
Yes — we can place pre-formed squads (e.g. 1 tech lead + 2 senior engineers + 1 DevOps) for clients who don't want to manage individual hires. Talk to us about Squad-as-a-Service pricing on a clarity call.
How do you handle taxes and compliance for the engineers?
Our Venezuelan entity holds the engineer contracts, runs payroll in USD, and handles all local labor and tax compliance. You receive a single monthly invoice from our US Delaware entity — clean for your accounting and audit.
