Why Hire in Latin America

Senior-level talent at 50–80% lower cost, in your time zone

LATAM is the fastest-growing remote talent market for US companies. Same workday, strong English, deep experience at US-based and global startups.

US time-zone overlap

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico run 0–3 hours off US Eastern. Same daily stand-ups. Real-time collaboration. No 12-hour delays like with Asia or Eastern Europe.

Fluent, business-ready English

84% of our placements are mid-level or senior. Most have worked at US-based or global companies. Direct communication, no translation layer, no cultural gap.

Save 50–80% per hire

A US Customer Success Manager at $120k/yr costs $30–40k in LATAM. Same seniority. Same output. Redirect the savings into more hires, more runway, or higher comp bands.

Massive, growing talent pool

LATAM graduates over 1M STEM students per year. Mexico now graduates 26% of students in STEM vs. 20% in the US. Tech hiring demand up 250% YoY.

Placed in weeks, not months

Average time-to-hire with Placibly: 2–4 weeks. We pre-vet every candidate on English, experience, culture fit, and references. You only interview the final 3.

60-day replacement guarantee

If it isn't working within the first 60 days, we replace the hire free of charge. You get zero risk, and we stay aligned with your outcome, not our commission.

What does a $120k/year hire actually cost?

A Customer Success Manager earning $120k in San Francisco. With payroll taxes, benefits, and equipment, total annual cost lands around $155k.

The same role in Latin America, same seniority, same English level, same tools, costs your company roughly $32k/year all-in. That's ~$123k saved per hire, per year.

Multiply that by 3–5 hires and you've funded your next 18 months of runway.
