“We started working with Teros during a critical phase of growth and they've consistently delivered. The engineers are thoughtful, pragmatic, and operate with real ownership. They ramp fast and contribute meaningfully. Teros is not a vendor for us — they are a core part of Honeyjar.”
“Teros has been a strong partner as we've scaled our engineering organization. The team brings senior-level judgment, moves quickly, and integrates seamlessly. They care about architecture, security, and long-term maintainability — not just shipping fast. It's rare to find a partner that feels like an extension of your team this quickly.”
“Teros helped us add senior engineering capacity quickly and responsibly. The team ramped fast, operated with ownership, and raised the technical bar. Highly recommend.”

Hiring should not take months.
Tell us what you need, and our team gets to work immediately. Teros maintains a deep network of experienced software engineers and developers throughout Latin America, allowing us to move significantly faster than a traditional recruiting firm starting every search from scratch.
Our goal: qualified placements in your hands within 48 hours.
We handle the search and bring you candidates who closely match your requirements. You interview the people you want to meet. You choose who joins your team.
Our recruiting network includes engineers throughout LATAM, with especially deep relationships in established technology markets such as Argentina and Uruguay. Common placements include:
Experienced developers working across modern backend frameworks, APIs, databases, cloud environments, and distributed systems.
Frontend developers experienced with modern JavaScript frameworks and building high-quality web applications.
Versatile engineers capable of contributing across frontend, backend, APIs, databases, and infrastructure.
Engineers experienced in AI applications, machine learning, LLM integrations, data systems, automation, and emerging AI technologies.
Technical talent experienced with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, deployment, observability, and modern DevOps environments.
Senior engineers capable of owning architecture, mentoring developers, and helping lead engineering teams.
Experienced technical leaders who can manage teams while maintaining strong engineering judgment.
LATAM has become one of the strongest markets in the world for U.S. companies building distributed engineering teams.
LATAM engineers can work alongside your U.S. team during the same business day. That means easier standups, faster communication, more collaboration, and fewer delays caused by teams working completely opposite schedules.
Latin America has large, established technology communities filled with engineers who have worked for startups, global software companies, and complex technology organizations.
Companies can often access experienced senior engineering talent at significantly lower total compensation than comparable hires in major U.S. technology markets.
These are not project-based outsourced developers. The engineers you hire can become embedded members of your team who work inside your systems, attend your meetings, and contribute directly to your product roadmap.
Teros offers three primary ways to build your LATAM engineering team, depending on your stage, hiring needs, and preferred level of operational support:
Need specialized engineering support without making a permanent hire?
Our Hours in Reserve option gives you access to experienced specialists for a set number of hours each month, with fast resource allocation and no placement fee. It is designed for high-impact, limited duration work where flexibility matters.
You pay a flat hourly rate and reserve the level of support your team needs.
Want to hire high-quality LATAM engineers while Teros handles the operational complexity?
Through our Employer of Record model, Teros recruits and supports engineers in Uruguay and Argentina while managing compliant contracts, payroll administration, local support, and related operational needs.
Your engineers work directly with your team and contribute to your product, processes, and goals. You retain day-to-day ownership of the working relationship while Teros provides the infrastructure needed to support near-shore hiring. Ideal for Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A companies building long-term engineering capacity.
Need to hire engineers directly in the United States market?
Teros can source and vet qualified U.S.-based engineering candidates for full-time roles or contract-to-hire opportunities. We identify candidates who match your technical requirements, seniority needs, compensation range, and team structure, then introduce you to the people who best fit your search.
Ideal for companies that want dedicated recruiting support while hiring engineers directly through their own employment structure.
We learn about your company, technical environment, open position, seniority requirements, compensation expectations, and what success looks like for the role.
Our recruiting team identifies engineers who match your technical and organizational requirements.
Our goal is to put qualified candidates in front of you within 48 hours so you can begin interviewing quickly.
Your team controls the interview process and decides who you want to hire.
Choose the engagement model that best fits your needs: Hours in Reserve for flexible specialist support, Employer of Record for near-shore hiring with operational support, or Sourcing (US) for direct U.S. engineering hires.
Tell us what kind of engineer or developer you need, and we’ll start identifying qualified LATAM candidates. Whether you need a single senior developer, an AI engineer, a technical lead, or multiple engineers to help scale your team, Teros can help you move quickly. Get qualified LATAM engineering candidates within 48 hours.
