Frequently Asked Questions

What makes BetterEngineer different from other nearshore outsourcing or staffing firms?

At BetterEngineer, we don’t just fill roles; we build trust-based relationships. Unlike most nearshore outsourcing companies, our focus is on long-term, high-impact collaboration. 

Every engineer we connect you with is pre-vetted, senior-level, and deeply aligned with your mission and culture. We measure success not by placements, but by the lasting team relationships and business value we help create.

How do you ensure engineers are a true fit for our team, not just technically, but personally and culturally?

We believe recruiting is as much about connection as it is about skill. That’s why our process prioritizes quality over quantity: we vet for cultural alignment, values, and teamwork, in addition to technical excellence. Our talent is handpicked from Latin America’s most committed and loyal engineers.

What values guide the BetterEngineer team and network?

 Everything we do is built on five core values:

  • Passionate Team Players: We celebrate and support one another’s achievements.
  • Result-Oriented Ownership: We take pride in every project and outcome.
  • Giving Before Getting: We deliver value before we ask to receive anything in return.
  • Transparency and Respect: We believe in open communication and treating all people with respect.
  • Data-Driven Decisions: Our choices are guided by evidence, not opinion.
What kinds of engineers can I hire through BetterEngineer?

Our network features senior software engineers in roles such as full stack, front end, back end, data science, AI/machine learning, mobile, DevOps, and QA. We specialize in matching you with the right talent, whether you need a Python developer, React specialist, or a full cross-functional team, always focused on exceptional skill, ownership, and collaboration.

What is BetterEngineer’s approach to building long-term teams?

Our approach is rooted in the belief that strong engineering teams are built on real partnerships. We connect U.S. companies with engineers in Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, and Costa Rica who see themselves as an integral part of your team, not just as contractors. We invest in onboarding, communication, and ongoing support, ensuring trust and results from day one.

Why choose BetterEngineer over traditional outsourcing or recruitment?
Traditional models can leave you with transactional relationships, high churn, or cultural disconnect. BetterEngineer goes deeper, leading with values, enabling seamless collaboration across time zones, and supporting engineers who are passionate, dedicated, and in it for the long run. With us, you get reliable performance, meaningful connections, and teams that deliver with pride. 
What are the business results of working with BetterEngineer?

Our clients routinely achieve faster hiring (average time to present is 72 hours; time to hire is just 38 days), more reliable teams, and substantial hiring cost savings, up to 42% per placement. Most importantly, our relationships last: engineers placed through us stay an average of 21.3 months, driving true business momentum and peace of mind.
