Indie Staffing · Near-shore talent · LATAM → U.S.

Hire in
Latin America.
Run from LA.

We connect U.S. companies with bilingual Latin American professionals — software engineers, designers, operations, customer success, bookkeeping, and admin. Same time zones, vetted English, half the cost of U.S. hires. We handle sourcing, interviews, and ongoing payroll so you don’t have to.

Why near-shore, not off-shore

Closer than you think.

Same-ish time zones

Colombia, Mexico, Argentina — all within 3 hrs of PT/ET. Standup at 9 still happens at 9. No one is up at 2 a.m.

English you can trust

We screen for C1+ English. You’ll hear the accent, you won’t lose the thread. Candidates handle client calls, not just async work.

40–60% below U.S. rates

A senior engineer you’d pay $150k here runs $70–90k loaded. Same quality, meaningfully lower burn.

We’re the EOR

We pay them, handle taxes, benefits, PTO, equipment. You get a U.S. invoice. No overseas entity to spin up.

How it works

Five steps.
No hand-off.

01
Brief

We take 30 minutes to understand the role: stack, level, must-haves, nice-to-haves, budget, pace.

02
Sourcing

We ship you 3–5 vetted candidates within 7–10 business days. Each comes with a video intro, resume, English screen, and ask.

03
Interview

You interview directly. We coordinate scheduling, timezones, take-home reviews if you want them.

04
Hire + onboard

You pick. We draft the offer, handle contracts in-country, ship a laptop, set up payroll, onboard in your tools.

05
Month-to-month

We keep running payroll + local benefits + 1:1s. You scale up, scale down, or convert to direct anytime.

Pricing · Flat fee, no markup on salary

Jane Faber · New York

Indie Desk transformed the way we manage our contractors. Everything centralized, with timely payments and constant support.

John Smith · Jersey City

We expanded our administrative team in Barranquilla without lengthy procedures. Their support has been key to our growth.

Madelaine Taylor · Paris

We needed consultants across Colombia. Indie Desk gave us the flexibility and security we were looking for.

Hiring local too

LA bilingual placements.

We also place EN/ES bilingual talent locally in Los Angeles — admin, reception, paralegal, bookkeeping, customer service. Temp, temp-to-hire, or direct. Rates run higher than near-shore but candidates are on-site ready.
