Its services are especially focused on nearshore developers located in Latin America, providing timezone-aligned, bilingual engineering talent to U.S.-based enterprises.[4] The platform supports roles in web development, data analytics, AI/ML, cloud computing, and cybersecurity. Developers are pre-vetted through assessments and technical interviews, allowing companies to significantly reduce hiring times and costs.
