Question 1

What is CloudDevs?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 2

Where can I find the best Latin American developers?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 3

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

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 4

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

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 5

Why hire a LATAM developer?

Accepted Answer

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!

Question 6

What types of developers can I hire in LATAM?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 7

Where can I hire an AI engineer?

Accepted Answer
