Visit Tecla

Tecla is a nearshore staffing company that connects companies with vetted software engineers and digital professionals across Latin America, working in U.S. time zones. It offers staff augmentation, direct hire recruiting, fractional engagements, and an AI services arm called Tecla Labs, while acting as employer of record to handle payroll, benefits, and compliance.

Engagements cover software engineering roles (backend, frontend, full-stack, mobile, platform, cloud) as well as AI, data, DevOps, QA, product, design, and marketing positions. Tecla Labs designs and builds AI agents, automations, LLM integrations, RAG systems, chatbots, and ML models. Candidates pass a four-layer vetting process including AI screening, recruiter interview, technical assessment, and an AI-fluency screen.
