Why AllCoda
Why engineering teams hire LATAM engineers through AllCoda.
Compare ModelsThe Agency Revolving Door
There's no shortage of options when you want to hire engineers from Latin America. Every agency says "top talent." Every agency says "senior." Every agency says "seamlessly integrated."
Resource Reallocation
Most agencies run a bench model. They place an engineer on your team, and when a higher-priority account needs coverage, that engineer moves.
Split Attention
Engineers juggle multiple clients simultaneously, killing context and velocity. You re-onboard. You lose months of context.
High Churn Rates
Agency engineers leave after 6 to 9 months on average. You lose context, velocity, and the months it took to onboard them.
What AllCoda Actually Does Differently
Four core principles that separate our dedicated model from every other option.
Engineers
Who Stay
The single biggest failure mode in remote engineering is churn. Every AllCoda engineer is hired specifically for your team, and that's where they stay.
- Engineers aren't shared across clients. One engineer, one team.
- Average tenure is 18+ months per client engagement.
- Zero reassignments. It's in the agreement.
Fewer Than
5% Accepted
"Senior" is the most abused word in nearshore engineering. Our definition:
engineers who've spent 5 to 10+ years building and maintaining systems that real
people use, under real conditions.
Our 4-stage vetting process ensures only those who meet that bar make the cut.
Part of Your Team,
Full Stop
What makes a nearshore engineering team actually work is simple: they need to be treated as part of your team. Same standups, same repos, same planning sessions. Most clients say their AllCoda engineers feel indistinguishable from onsite within 60 days.
Direct Hire,
Built In
Every AllCoda agreement includes a transparent path to direct employment. The option is written in from day one, with clear, reasonable terms. You're never locked into the model longer than it makes sense.

Who AllCoda Is Built For
We work best with teams that already have engineering leadership and want to grow.
SaaS & B2B Product
Series A to C SaaS, fintech, healthtech, and B2B product companies that need senior engineers, not task-takers.
Series A - C
Teams that already have engineering leadership and want to grow their nearshore engineering team, not hand off delivery.
Burned Before
Engineering leaders who've been burned by contractor churn before and need stability they can actually count on.
