How it works

Same flow for both lanes

You tell us the role

Share what you're hiring for. We turn it into a scorecard the screener can reason over.

We source and vet

Our pool plus open search. Every candidate goes through the Screener and AI Matching before you see them.

You interview the shortlist

Only pre-qualified candidates reach your calendar. You focus on culture fit, we handle the rest.

You hire — we set up payroll

US: we support W-2 or contract placement. Mexico: we set up the EOR and you skip opening an entity.

What you get

A recruiting partner, not a job-board scraper
Vetting and screening

Skills checks, reference verification, and the same AI screener our ATS customers use. Available in both geographies.

Payroll and EOR (Mexico)

We help you pick and integrate with Deel, Remote, or Ontop — no need to open a Mexican entity.

Compliance

US: W-2 vs. contractor guidance. Mexico: LFT, IMSS, PTU, and IP assignment under Mexican law.

Team scaling

From one senior hire to a 15-person pod. Our vetting pipeline keeps the quality bar consistent as you grow.

FAQ

Common questions
Do you hire outside tech and design?

No — that's our lane. Staying narrow is how we keep the quality bar consistent.

Do I need a Mexican entity?

No. We set you up with an Employer of Record (Deel, Remote, Ontop) so you don't have to open one.

What seniority do you typically place?

5-15 years, with flexibility. Most of our placements are senior individual contributors and engineering managers.

Can we hire in both the US and Mexico at once?

Yes, that's common. We run the same pipeline and deliver a shortlist that spans both geographies.

How fast is the first shortlist?

Typically 1-2 weeks from kickoff, depending on role scarcity. Offers usually land in 4-6 weeks.

What about IP and contracting?

USMCA protections plus contract templates we've used across dozens of placements. We'll walk you through both on a call.
