Latin American software engineers are unlike US-based engineers in that they are not constantly looking for a new job. While the average length of time a US-based engineer stays at a job is just over 1 year, the average length of time our engineers stay is over 3 years. That’s greater than a 200% increase in retention time. Or put another way, it’s a 66% reduction in turn-over, sourcing and recruiting of new team members. Both of these stats are significant benefits to working with Latin American engineers and will save you both time and money.

Columbia is in the same time zone as Central Time, which means the engineers we recruit for you can work alongside your US-based team without having to keep odd hours. This eliminates the difficulty of asynchronous development schedules, while keeping your remote nearshore team happy.

Unlike hiring overseas, nearshore talent understands and shares cultural expectations and norms with your existing team. In addition, every engineer we source for you speaks perfect English. So you will experience a seamless integration into your company culture and workflow.

In addition to the massive cost savings that result from engineers staying in their jobs more than 3 times longer, the cost of living in Columbia is lower than in the US. So the salary expectations are slightly lower, as well. Combined, these efficiencies can have a significant impact on your cashflow over the course of an engagement.
