ABOUT WIZHIRE
Senior LatAm engineers. Structured hiring.
We specialize in placing Senior, Staff, and Principal engineers, along with technical leaders, in Series A, B, and C startups. As a boutique firm, every recruitment process is overseen directly by David Rincon, ensuring clients collaborate with the individual executing the search, rather than a less experienced sourcing team. Our approach is founded on three key principles. First, we prioritize quality over quantity: we tap into a network of over 50,000 passive candidates spread across Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Peru, and Chile, instead of relying on job boards. Second, we employ a structured evaluation system: each candidate on the shortlist undergoes a technical screening at the Staff level, utilizing discipline-specific criteria that clarify what differentiates Senior, Staff, and Principal roles in terms of scope of responsibility, architectural insight, and decision-making power. Third, we focus on decision efficiency: clients receive a curated list of 3–5 pre-assessed candidates, complete with structured scorecards, within 5 business days of completing the Hiring Manager Intake, rather than sorting through 15 unfiltered resumes. We cover 14 technical fields, including Backend Software Engineering, Frontend Software Engineering, Machine Learning Engineering, AI Engineering, Data Engineering, Site Reliability Engineering, DevOps Engineering, Platform Engineering, Cloud Security Engineering, Application Security Engineering, Network Security Engineering, DevSecOps Engineering, Technical Product Management, and Product Design. Each search starts with a structured Hiring Manager Intake, a 10-dimensional session that addresses technical stack, system ownership expectations, operating level, seniority alignment, candidate anti-profile, compensation, team dynamics, evaluation criteria, essential versus desirable traits, and success metrics. This session not only clarifies the actual role beyond the job description but also influences every subsequent sourcing and evaluation decision. Our fee structure consists solely of a success fee (no retainer or upfront payments), with fees ranging from 14% to 26% of the Annual Gross Remuneration, depending on the chosen payment terms and warranty period, typically amounting to between $9,000 and $43,000 USD.

We focus on connecting Senior, Staff, and Principal engineers from Latin America with startups in the US and Europe, utilizing a methodical evaluation process rather than mass sourcing. Each recruiting process begins with a consultation from the Hiring Manager. Candidates are assessed by a Staff-level engineer, and we provide shortlists containing only 3 to 5 candidates, instead of 15. The firm was established by David Rincon.
