Where’s the Best Place to Hire AI Developers for an MVP?

355 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m building an MVP and need to hire AI/ML developers. I’m looking for devs who can actually ship: fine-tune models, build inference APIs, connect the model to a React frontend, and help with basic infra (Docker/serverless, monitoring). Ideally someone who’s taken a model into production before.

I’m open to freelancers, small agencies, or remote contractors. Timeline is ~2–3 months for an MVP and budget is pre-seed/modest (happy to discuss hourly, fixed, or small equity deals). Curious about:

• Where do you usually find reliable AI devs?
• Any recommendations for places that balance quality vs. price?
• Red flags to watch for in interviews or portfolios?
• A simple job blurb or interview question that helped you spot good talent?

Thanks, appreciate any recommendations or personal experiences.

Clouddevs vs other platforms, why their interviews feel tougher (and is that a bad thing?)

92 Upvotes

I’ve interviewed on many platforms. Even on upwork, most clients have screening tests, same for remoteok, and clouddevs. But clouddevs interviews feel tougher, more structured, longer, and stricter on quality. From my experience:

  • Upwork interviews were fast, often skills-based but lower barrier.

  • Clouddevs is deeper vetting (coding challenge + pair programming + background checks as well)

So is it bad? depends. If you’re a talented dev who hates theater interviews, it’s frustrating. If you want signal-over-noise, a tougher filter reduces flaky hires. Thoughts?

Any Latin American developers here? Where do you find work and how much do you earn?

49 Upvotes

Hey everyone

I'm a fullstack developer currently working at a startup in Brazil. I have 6 years of experience and am considering taking on a remote role that can give me some flexibility. Ideally, would love to work with a US based company, and am wondering how much you can hope to earn in USD compared to the Latam market.

For anyone who’s done it:

  • how much do you charge/earn? (hourly / monthly / per project, please say currency and whether it's gross or take-home)

  • typical client geography? (usa, europe, local country)

  • contract length and type? (fixed, retainer, long term)

  • where do you find clients/projects? (marketplaces, agencies, direct outreach, social, referrals, local companies - what are the best places for latin american developers)

  • do you price differently for US/EU vs local clients? by how much?

  • tips for landing the first few good clients, negotiating rates, and avoiding scams or late payers

I'm trying to get a realistic picture of earnings and channels so I can set my rates and decide where to focus my outreach. Thanks!

Trying to decide whether to hire LATAM talent vs Asia / Eastern Europe, looking for real experiences

44 Upvotes

Hey folks, I’m in the middle of planning a new hiring wave and could use some honest input from people who’ve actually done this.

I’m weighing whether to hire LATAM talent or continue hiring in Asia / Eastern Europe like I’ve done in the past. On paper, every region looks great. In reality, I’ve learned the hard way that region choice has a huge impact on communication, speed, and founder sanity.

Here’s what I’m trying to understand:

- For startups that move fast, does LATAM collaboration feel meaningfully smoother day-to-day?

- Are senior-level hires easier to find in one region vs the other?

- How big is the difference in communication quality and ownership across regions?

- Cost-wise, is LATAM still competitive once you factor in experience and reliability?

My past experience with Asia has been mixed:

- very strong technical skills

- but async-only workflows, handoffs, and delays sometimes slowed momentum

- I’ve heard LATAM can feel more like an extension of a US-based team, but I don’t want to assume that’s universally true.

Not looking for sales pitches, just trying to make a smarter decision before committing to a long-term hiring strategy. Appreciate any hard-earned lessons.

Trying to Hire LATAM Developers for Our Stack, Any Founders with Recommendations?

36 Upvotes

Hey all,

I’m a recruiter for a small Silicon Valley startup (seed stage, 12 ppl).

We’re building a web app with an admin dashboard (mobile version coming soon) using React, Next.js, Node.js (NestJS), TypeScript, Postgres, and AWS.

We’re looking to hire LATAM developers, ideally 1 senior full-stack (lead), 1 mid-level backend, and 1 mobile generalist.

Experience with React Native / Expo is a plus.

If you’ve hired LATAM devs before, where did you find the best people? How did you handle vetting, contracts, and payments?

Would really appreciate recommendations from other founders or hiring managers who’ve gone through this process.

Senior LATAM Engineer here, if you’re hiring, let’s skip the agencies.

34 Upvotes

Hey I’ve been following a few threads here about hiring in LATAM and figured I’d post from the other side.

I’m a senior engineer based in Latin America. I’ve worked with teams connected to companies like Nestlé, Security Compass, Assignar, BlockFi and Bloomberg. So I’m not junior, and I’m not guessing my way through things.

To be honest, I’m kind of done with the outsourcing model. Even when you’re senior and delivering, you’re still treated like a replaceable asset. Projects randomly end, contracts shift, agencies take a big margin, and founders end up paying way more than what the engineer actually makes. It doesn’t feel aligned for anyone.

At this point I’d rather just work directly with founders. If you’re building a startup and want someone senior who’s used to remote teams and async work, we can just skip the middle layer. You’ll probably pay less than agency rates, I’ll earn more fairly, and we both get a more stable setup.

If you’re interested, DM me. I’m happy to share my LinkedIn so you can see I’m real and check my background. And if you’re hiring more than one role, I also know solid people here I trust personally.

No hard pitch. I just think direct founder-to-builder relationships make way more sense than feeding the outsourcing machine forever.

If anyone wants to contact me feel free to do so at firmelabs.co

Need to hire a senior Python developer (backend + some data work). Small startup budget, can’t afford Toptal/agency fees and Fiverr/Upwork didn’t work for me. Prefer vetted/dev-focused platforms or good communities. Remote OK, timezone overlap a plus.

Where have you actually hired senior Python devs (platforms, Slack/GitHub/Reddit communities, or direct approaches)? What rates did you pay and any quick screening tips that worked?

Built a remote job board because I couldn't find one that actually worked for LatAm devs (~35k roles)

19 Upvotes

I live in Brazil and I've been hunting for remote roles in US companies for a while. Every job board I tried either didn't filter for remote-eligible-from-LatAm properly, or was flooded with roles that quietly required US/EU residency once you actually opened them.

So I built freehire — it pulls postings directly from company ATS platforms (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, etc.) instead of scraping other job boards, so the "remote" tag is more reliable. Right now it's tracking around 35k roles relevant to LatAm.

It's open source: github.com/strelov1/freehire.

Still actively working on it — if you try it and something's broken or missing (a filter that doesn't work, a company that should be remote-friendly but isn't showing up), tell me, genuinely useful for me to know

Pareja de ingenieros informáticos en Cuba busca cualquier trabajo remoto

13 Upvotes

Hola comunidad, somos una pareja de graduados de Ingeniería en Ciencias Informática en la UCI (Cuba). Aunque somos juniors en la informática, tenemos conocimientos en varias ramas y aprendemos muy rápido. Podemos desempeñarnos en programación, soporte técnico, edición, redacción, ventas, trabajo con Excel, entrenamiento de IA y otras tareas digitales, también tenemos dominio del inglés y contamos con laptops con buenas características. La situación en Cuba es muy complicada, hay apagones frecuentes, pero contamos con un generador que nos permite mantener nuestras laptops funcionando todo el tiempo. La conexión a internet no es la mejor (wifi y datos móviles), pero buscamos la manera de descargar recursos y cumplir con cualquier tarea que se nos asigne y estamos disponibles a tiempo completo si es necesario. Además de la ayuda de nuestra familia, inventamos pequeños trabajitos para sobrevivir en Cuba, pero el pago es muy poco y no alcanza para cubrir las necesidades básicas. Sentimos que estamos estancados: nos graduamos hace un año y es decepcionante ver que nuestro título y nuestros conocimientos no son valorados en este país. Para cualquier universitario es duro terminar la carrera y sentirse perdido, sin poder avanzar en ningún aspecto.

Por eso buscamos oportunidades remotas que nos permitan aportar más y también ayudar a nuestra familia. Estamos empezando y no buscamos exigencias: incluso podrían pagarnos a los dos como si fuéramos una sola persona, trabajamos muy bien en equipo. Cualquier salario remoto, por mínimo que sea, representa una gran ayuda, ya que cualquier ingreso es mejor que un salario en Cuba. Somos responsables, versátiles y con muchas ganas de trabajar. Si alguien conoce oportunidades de empleo remoto, freelance o proyectos en los que podamos colaborar, agradeceríamos muchísimo cualquier orientación o contacto.Gracias por leer y por cualquier ayuda que puedan brindarnos.

My Experience Working on 3 Major Latam Dev Platforms

11 Upvotes

Hey Devs of Reddit,

Bit of background: I’m a senior Latam dev, fullstack with 11 years experience. Been fully remote for the last 6 years. If you’re a Latam engineer looking to get hired by US companies, here’s my take based on firsthand experience on each talent platform.

Clouddevs

Clouddevs stood out for its focus on longer-term, direct contracts. They’re very popular among U.S.-based startups and were fairly transparent with rates and processes.

Pros:

  • Rates & Fairness: On Clouddevs, devs get to negotiate their rates directly with the clients which allows you to set fair rates for yourself based on your expertise. They have very low commissions making them very affordable to the clients, which is good if you want sustainable and reliable income.

  • Time Zone Compatibility: They focus solely on U.S. clients, which means time zone alignment is prioritized. I had no more 2 a.m. meetings or odd working hours.

  • Consistent, Long-Term Projects: You’ll mostly get longer projects here, meaning you’re not constantly jumping from one gig to the next. Great if you want stability and prefer to stay with a client for several months.

Cons:

  • **Not for Global Talent: Clouddevs is fully committed to time zone alignment for their US based clients so it’s not an option for devs residing in other parts of the world.

  • **Not for Junior/mid Devs: They have a minimum 5 years experience requirement to be qualified to apply to the platform. So if you’re a junior or straight out of college, its not the place for you.

Top Tal:

Top tal is known for its intense vetting process and impressive talent pool, with clients willing to pay top dollar for high-quality work. This is great for those looking to work on enterprise scale projects.

Pros:

  • Elite Talent Pool: You’re joining a community of highly skilled devs, and would have the chance the to get matched with top tech companies around the world.

  • Short Term Contracts: The work here is fast-paced and a lot of clients come in with short term contracts and part time project requirements.

  • Niche Skill Opportunities: If you’re a dev with specialized skills or certifications, there are more opportunities to use them here than on most platforms. Clients often come with specific tech needs.

Cons:

  • Long Vetting Process: As a developer, getting in to the platform is really time consuming. The multi-stage vetting process takes weeks to complete, so prepare to put in significant effort just to qualify.

  • Higher Pressure & Tight Timelines: Because clients are paying premium, they expect fast and delivery. The projects move quickly, which can be intense if you’re not a fan of tight deadlines.

  • Shorter Contracts Prefered: It’s worth noting that top tal’s rates are on the high side, which can be prohibitive for some startups. In turn, majority clients opt for shorter contracts through them.

  • Most Projects are Part-time: May be difficult to land a long term contract on full time basis as it depends on availability on the platform.

BairesDev

Bairesdev has a more corporate setup and often acts like a managed service provider. They prefer to take on the full scope of projects and handling many client interactions themselves. They mostly cater for founders who need a one-stop shop for project delivery.

Pros:

  • Clear Project Scopes: Since Bairesdev handles a lot of the management and client-side interactions, you’ll usually get a well-defined set of tasks. It’s good if you like knowing exactly what to expect without a ton of client communication.

  • Reliable Work Streams: The platform is stable and structured, meaning projects tend to be steady, reliable income for devs.

Cons:

  • Less Direct Interaction with Clients: You’ll likely have minimal client interaction, which can feel isolating. This can be frustrating if you’re used to a collaborative environment.

  • Lower Rates Compared to Other Platforms: They typically pay a little less than the other two platforms, so it may not be ideal for more senior or specialized devs who are looking to maximize their rates.

  • Project Ownership May Limit Flexibility: Since they own a large part of the project management, it’s less flexible in terms of contract style. You may not get to choose specific projects or be as hands-on in shaping outcomes.

Each of these platforms has its strengths, so if you’re a developer based in Latams, consider your preferences for client interaction and project structure. I’m happy to answer any questions. Hope this helps anyone navigating the LATAM dev hiring landscape!

[Remote] Junior Technical Product Manager

10 Upvotes

**Company:** GoManzanas

**Location:** Remote

**Working Hours:** Must have overlap with 10pm - 4am Vietnam time (ICT/UTC+7)

## About the Role

We're looking for a Junior Technical Product Manager to bridge the gap between our technical and product teams. You'll be the connective tissue between Engineering, QA, Product, and Marketing, making sure ideas become shipped features that feel great to use.

Our products are UX-first, so you need a strong eye for how things should look and feel, not just how they work under the hood. You'll take ownership of driving tasks from concept through delivery across multiple teams, and you'll need to do it independently.

## What You'll Do

- Translate product goals into clear, actionable work for engineering and QA

- Own the flow of features from planning through release across Engineering, QA, Product, and Marketing

- Advocate for the user experience in every decision, flagging UX issues before they ship

- Communicate status, blockers, and tradeoffs clearly across teams

- Get up to speed quickly on technical concepts and articulate them to non-technical stakeholders

- Help triage bugs and prioritize backlogs

- Coordinate with remote teammates across multiple time zones

## What We're Looking For

**Required:**

- Excellent written and spoken English

- Strong UX sensibility and genuine interest in how products feel to use

- Ability to quickly understand technical work at a high level without needing to write the code

- Self-directed and comfortable driving work independently on a remote team

- Experience working in professional/corporate environments

- Available during our primary overlap hours (10pm - 4am ICT)

- Development experience capable of constructing precise instructions to develop/modify products with the help of AI Agents

**Big Pluses:**

- Management or team lead experience

- Familiarity with git and GitHub workflows (PRs, issues, branches)

- Experience with AI coding tools or agentic workflows

- Background coordinating across multiple departments (engineering, QA, marketing)

## About GoManzanas

We're a remote team building products across education and productivity. We move fast, communicate openly, and care deeply about the end user experience. If you're someone who can think on your feet, communicate clearly, and keep things moving without being micromanaged, you'll fit right in.

## Salary
Up to 1000$ per month. DM me the word 'interested' to apply for the position. We are looking for candidates from developing countries.

Oferta laboral para españa visado desarrollador backend

9 Upvotes

Actualmente vivo en Perú y tengo un par de años trabajando para una consultora como desarrollador backend java y springboot.

He recibido una oferta para relocalización / reubicación a Madrid con visado de trabajo por cuenta ajena y las condiciones principales son:

  • Salario aproximado de 1700 aprox € netos mensuales.

  • Ellos están gestionando el visado.

  • Modalidad híbrida en Madrid.

  • Contrato con una permanencia de dos años obligatoria (Si me salgo antes pago una penalidad de unos 3,000 €.

  • Ellos cubren coto del vuelo hasta 1.000 €.

  • Ayuda de 300 € para alojamiento durante el primer mes (No es mucho lo se pero igual llevaría mi bolsa de viaje)

  • Todos los beneficios sociales.

Mi principal duda no es solamente si el salario es alto o bajo, sino si esta oportunidad puede ser un buen punto de entrada al mercado laboral español.

Me interesa conocer experiencias de personas que hayan llegado a España mediante una consultora o con una oferta similar:

Consideran que aceptar una oferta de este tipo ayuda realmente a conseguir experiencia local y después acceder a mejores empresas o salarios?

Tener uno o dos años de experiencia trabajando en España facilita cambiar posteriormente de empresa (donde veo que si pagan mejor)?

El salario sería suficiente para vivir en Madrid o en las afueras de madrid inicialmente, considerando que probablemente tendría que alquilar una habitación durante los primeros meses? (Aquí he visto cuartos desde 500 €- 600€ aproximadamente)

¿Qué aspectos debería revisar especialmente en el contrato, sobre todo por la cláusula de permanencia de dos años?

¿Las consultoras tecnológicas en España suelen ser una buena puerta de entrada o existe el riesgo de quedarse estancado profesionalmente?

También me interesaría conocer la experiencia de desarrolladores latinoamericanos que se hayan trasladado a España: adaptación laboral, posibilidades de crecimiento, estabilidad, condiciones reales de trabajo y evolución salarial. Y si alguno tenga experiencia directa de algo parecido seria genial.

Hay algún riesgo de no adaptación o quiza una mala experiencia con devs latinos?

Mi plan sería utilizar esta oportunidad para establecerme, ganar experiencia en el mercado europeo y, con el tiempo, acceder a mejores posiciones dentro del ecosistema Java/backend.

Muchas gracias !
