Overview

Tecla is a leading nearshore software development and staffing firm that connects top-tier technical talent from Latin America with U.S. and Canadian companies. Specializing in senior-level developers, designers, data engineers, and product professionals, Tecla ensures fluent English communication and overlapping U.S. time zones for seamless collaboration. The company is recognized as one of America’s fastest-growing private firms on the Inc. 5000 list, highlighting its rapid growth and trusted reputation. With a network of over 50,000 pre-vetted candidates across 18+ Latin American countries—including Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, and Costa Rica—Tecla offers businesses the ability to quickly scale teams without compromising quality.

Clients such as Mercedes-Benz, Homelight, Drift, and Major League Soccer rely on Tecla to accelerate project delivery, enhance hiring pipelines, and build scalable engineering capacity. Tecla’s triple-vetting process, which includes technical assessments, soft skills evaluation, and cultural fit screening, combined with AI-augmented matching, ensures that each candidate aligns precisely with client needs. Nearshore resources also provide significant cost efficiency—often 40–50% more affordable than U.S.-based talent—while maintaining the same level of technical expertise.

The company supports a wide range of roles beyond software developers, including UX/UI designers, product managers, data scientists, project managers, IT support, and even sales and marketing professionals. Engagement models are flexible and include staff augmentation, fully integrated agile nearshore teams, and managed software delivery for end-to-end solutions. This adaptability, combined with Tecla’s focus on quality and scale, makes it a valuable partner for companies seeking to accelerate growth, reduce risk, and strengthen their technical capabilities.
