Hire Senior Software Engineers from Argentina

The roles we place from Argentina

Whether you need individual contributors or technical leaders, Teros sources across every layer of a modern engineering organization. Our Buenos Aires network covers the full spectrum of disciplines, and our engineers come with the kind of experience that lets them contribute from day one.

We also source for specialized roles in healthtech, fintech, and supply chain where domain expertise matters just as much as technical skill. Tell us what you are looking for.

Not a vendor. A team you own.

Global payroll and EOR platforms give you self-service tools. Traditional agencies give you managed output. Teros is different. We give you a team that works directly inside your organization, built from a pre-vetted network of senior engineers, operated with a playbook refined over more than a decade of building hybrid U.S./LATAM engineering teams.

Choose the model that fits your team

Every company is at a different stage, and the right hiring model depends on where you are today. Whether you are assembling your very first engineering team or adding capacity to an organization that already has strong technical leadership, Teros has a model that fits.

What U.S. founders and engineering leaders say

Frequently asked questions

Why does Teros focus specifically on Buenos Aires, and not all of Argentina?

Buenos Aires has the largest and most concentrated population of senior, internationally experienced engineers in the country. Teros is built around long-term team integration, which means we hire in the same geographic area where we can maintain local presence, strong relationships, and hands-on support. Focusing on a single concentrated region also lets us move faster and gives us higher confidence in the quality of every candidate we put in front of you.

What time zone do Argentine engineers work in?

Buenos Aires operates on UTC-3 and does not observe daylight saving time. In practice, that means your Argentine engineers have full-day overlap with U.S. Eastern time zone teams and about five hours of overlap with Pacific time zone teams. They attend your standups, respond to Slack in real time, and participate in your workday without any asynchronous workarounds or midnight meetings.

How is Teros different from a traditional staffing agency?

The fundamental difference is ownership. Traditional agencies own the output and the relationship with the engineers. With Teros, the engineers work directly inside your team, inside your systems, and under your management. They are embedded contributors to your product, not rotating contractors on an agency roster. Teros handles the administrative layer (payroll, compliance, contracts) so you can focus on building with your team rather than managing a vendor relationship.

What types of companies does Teros work with?

Teros works primarily with U.S.-based startups and technology companies from Pre-Seed through Series A and beyond. We typically see two types of customers. The first are companies without established technical leadership who need a more hands-on, prescriptive approach to building their first engineering team. The second are companies with experienced CTOs or VPs of Engineering who know exactly what they need and want qualified candidates fast. Both benefit from our network and our playbook.

How quickly can we expect our first candidate profiles?

Our goal is to deliver qualified candidate profiles within 48 hours of your discovery call. We can move this fast because we are not starting every search from zero. Our network in Buenos Aires is warm, pre-vetted, and actively engaged. When you tell us what you need, we are searching an existing pool of engineers we already know and trust, not posting a job listing and waiting for applications to trickle in.

What happens if an engineer is not working out?

Teros offers a 3-month replacement guarantee. If a placement is not the right fit for your team, we will find a replacement. We are invested in long-term outcomes, not one-time placements. Our reputation depends on engineers who stay with their teams for years, not months, and that is the standard we hold ourselves to.

The people behind Teros

Teros was not built by recruiters who decided to learn about engineering. It was built by engineers and operators who spent over a decade assembling hybrid teams for U.S. startups. The playbook exists because it was learned through years of real experience, not assembled from a recruiting template.

Founder

More than 20 years in technology and product leadership. Nico co-founded the first e-commerce company in Uruguay, helped scale it to $25M+ in revenue and 150 people, and has been building hybrid U.S./LATAM engineering teams since 2013. He knows what works because he has done it himself.

Gonzalo Rosso
