CloudDevs is a US-based technical talent marketplace, helping US companies to hire senior Latin American developers and designers in just 24 hours while saving up to 60% on costs.

Where can I find the best Latin American developers?

Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Peru are often considered the best countries for hiring developers in Latin America as a US company. This is due to their exceptionally high English fluency and their investment in education and technological infrastructure. You can hire in these countries through a generalist job board and vet them yourself, or you can use a pre-vetted talent platform like CloudDevs to access a curated pool of developers from Latin America.

How much does it cost to hire a Latin American developer?

The cost of senior Latin American developers ranges from $35 to $80 per hour for freelance or project-based work, depending on their level of experience, seniority, and where you source your talents. For example, developers on unvetted platforms like Upwork might price themselves at $20 to $40 per hour, but this requires an additional investment in extensive interviewing and vetting processes. Meanwhile, a talent agency is likely to charge upwards of $100 per hour for their services. A good middle-ground is a talent marketplace like CloudDevs, where developers are fully vetted by an expert team without the additional fees of a hiring agency. The average hourly rate for a CloudDevs developer is $45 to $75 per hour, or as low as $25 per hour for a long-term engagement.

How long does it take to hire a Latin American developer?

Hiring a developer from Latin America can take up to 8 weeks with a traditional hiring agency, due to the long screening and vetting processes involved. However, hiring a remote Latin American developer through a talent platform like CloudDevs can take as little as 24 hours, as the talents in the network are pre-vetted and actively seeking new opportunities.

Why hire a LATAM developer?

Hiring a developer in Latin America combines affordability with experience and cultural compatibility. LatAm has a vibrant, rapidly-evolving tech scene and some of the strongest English fluency outside of Western Europe and North America, and typically cost 60% less than a local US developer. Plus, almost all LatAm countries are within ±2 hours of US time zones!

What types of developers can I hire in LATAM?

Latin America has a rich pool of developers and tech talent who are available to US companies through services like CloudDevs, the largest talent platform in LATAM. Our developers are fluent in a variety of languages and technologies including Python, Ruby, Django, JavaScript, AI/LLMs, PHP and Laravel. Our 10,000+ senior talent pool encompasses frontend, backend, full-stack, and mobile developers and are available for both short- and long-term engagements.

Where can I hire an AI engineer?

According to a recent study by Randstad, demand for AI skills has increased a whopping 500% between 2023 and 2024, but over 3/4 of companies reported a lack of AI-skilled professionals. If you're struggling to find senior AI talent, CloudDevs can help. Our extensive platform of senior, pre-vetted Latin American talents includes hundreds of skilled professionals across Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Large Language Models (LLMs), Computer Vision and beyond. Save up to 60% on senior AI talent and hire in just 48 hours with CloudDevs.

Our vetting process

During the initial video call, the candidates' personality and attitude towards work is assessed. An informal assessment of their spoken professional English language communication skills is also conducted.

During the second stage of the vetting process, a more detailed technical skills evaluation is conducted by one of our senior talent experts. This evaluation is specific to the candidate's background, tech stack and expertise.

The final stage of vetting involves a live coding challenge to determine the talent's problem solving and critical thinking skills under pressure. The coding challenge is continuously monitored and checked for plagiarism.

Hire from our pool of 500,000+ pre-vetted developers

As the largest pre-vetted talent platform in Latin America with over 500,000 junior, mid-level and senior developers, we’re confident we can find the perfect fit for you, from short-term project-based roles to permanent positions.
