Ideaware office

You’ve been there: posting roles that get no responses, losing candidates to counter-offers, burning through recruiting budgets only to restart the cycle 18 months later. Local hiring is expensive, slow, and increasingly unsustainable—especially when 40-60% cost savings and faster time-to-hire are within reach.

Ideaware connects you with elite nearshore developers from Latin America who work in your time zone, communicate fluently in English, and bring the technical depth you need to ship faster. We’ve spent 15 years building a network of top 3% talent across Latin America, and we handle everything from vetting to payroll so you can focus on building your product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I start with a single developer instead of a full team?

Absolutely. Whether you need one developer or a full cross-functional team, we tailor every engagement to your needs. Many clients start with a single engineer to test the model, then scale to multiple developers or complete pods as they see the results. We handle the logistics from day one, whether it's one person or twenty.

What's the financial commitment and contract terms?

No upfront fees required. We offer a 30-day performance guarantee—if the fit isn't right, we replace the developer at no additional cost. Invoicing is handled on a monthly per-developer basis. Contract minimum is 12 months, though most clients stay between 2-4 years. Your developers are 100% dedicated to your project and function as a natural extension of your in-house team.

How quickly can developers start working on my project?

You start receiving candidate profiles within 48 hours of our initial consultation. Developers can typically be onboarded and coding within 2-4 weeks, depending on your interview process and technical assessment requirements. Our streamlined vetting process ensures minimal delays while maintaining rigorous quality standards.

What if the developer isn't a good cultural or technical fit?

If within the first 30 days you feel the fit isn't right, we'll replace the developer at no additional cost. Our extensive vetting process minimizes these situations, but we stand behind every placement. Your success is our priority, and we move swiftly to ensure your project never loses momentum.

How do time zones work for daily collaboration?

Latin American time zones offer 1-3 hour differences from US Eastern and Pacific times, enabling real-time collaboration during standard business hours. Daily standups, sprint planning, code reviews, and urgent issue resolution all happen during your workday—unlike offshore alternatives in Asia or Eastern Europe with 10-12 hour gaps that require async workflows and slow velocity.

What about IP protection and security?

We follow enterprise-grade security protocols. All developers sign comprehensive NDAs, IP assignment agreements, and confidentiality agreements before accessing your codebase. We maintain secure access controls, follow data protection best practices, and ensure full IP ownership stays with you. Your code, your secrets—always protected.

Do you handle all HR and legal compliance?

Yes. We manage contracts, payroll, benefits, tax compliance, and all legal requirements. Our HR team handles performance management, career development, conflict resolution, and retention strategies. You get developers; we handle the operational complexity. No need to set up international entities or navigate foreign employment law.

What's your vetting process?

We accept only the top 3% of applicants. Every candidate passes technical assessments (live coding, system design, architecture reviews), behavioral interviews, English fluency tests, and cultural fit evaluations. We review portfolios, conduct reference checks, and verify experience claims. You only interview candidates who meet your exact technical and cultural requirements.

How does pricing compare to US hiring?

Latin American developers cost 40-60% less than equivalent US-based talent. A senior developer who would cost $150k-$200k+ in the US (plus benefits, equity, and recruiter fees) typically costs $75k-$95k through our model—all-in. You get senior-level expertise without equity dilution, recruiter fees, or benefits overhead. The savings compound as you scale.

Can I scale my team up or down based on project needs?

Yes. Our flexible engagement model lets you scale based on runway, project phases, and product roadmap. Need to add developers for a major feature release? We can staff that in weeks. Need to adjust team size during a funding transition? We work with you to optimize for your current situation. No penalties for right-sizing your team.
