How can the savings be so large?
Salaries in Latin America are lower than in the U.S. for the same skills and seniority, and you avoid most U.S. employer costs on top of salary.
Who manages their day-to-day work?
You do. They work as part of your team and you direct their day-to-day work. We handle recruiting, payments and support in the background.
How do we pay?
You’re invoiced by our U.S. LLC: monthly for Managed Talent, or once for Direct Hire. We accept all major payment methods, including card subscriptions.
Can you hire for on-site roles in the U.S.?
Yes. With Direct Hire you can hire remotely in Latin America or for your U.S. office.
Do you hire for roles outside tech?
Yes. Our focus is AI, software, data, cloud and IT, and we also hire across HR, marketing, finance, operations, sales and leadership.
