Thaloz: Latam Software Development Company Making Waves in the US
This article was originally published in the San Francisco Business Times.
The technology landscape has been rapidly evolving, and Latin America is increasingly recognized for its top-tier talent, cost-effective rates, and remarkable companies collaborating with U.S. firms on digital products.
Thaloz, a leading software development company based in Uruguay, exemplifies this trend. With over 100 team members and a database of more than 30,000 talents, Thaloz has been partnering with Fortune 500 fintech companies and major U.S. brands. They offer custom product development and team augmentation services, delivering exceptional value and expertise.
A strong foundation: Thaloz's journey
With five years in the industry, the Thaloz team boasts extensive experience in expanding tech teams with nearshore talent for both product development projects and staffing needs. Operating in over 30 countries across Latin America and beyond, founders Sebastián Martínez, CEO, and Pablo García, COO, are dedicated to expanding their reach and enhancing their value proposition for clients.
Thaloz's headquarters in Montevideo, Uruguay, feature an innovative concept known as the 'Thaloz House,' a space designed for co-working and lodging for their team and the tech community.
Custom product development solutions for all needs
Thaloz assists U.S. companies in building or scaling their digital products, specializing in recruiting, hiring, and managing talent, as well as developing custom software solutions.
But why choose nearshore? Here are the top 5 benefits:
→ Talent Hub:
Designed for mid to large U.S. companies looking to build or expand their tech teams with vetted Latin American talent, Thaloz provides profiles ready to integrate into clients' projects under their leadership. As a tech partner, Thaloz handles recruiting, hiring, vetting, retaining, and all administrative and payroll tasks related to the contractors. This approach can save clients up to 50% compared to U.S. rates.
Let’s look at a quick comparison:
With the combination of these competitive rates, top talent, and exceptional service, Thaloz has established partnerships with well-known companies. For instance, with one client, they hired 90 developers for +15 brands, sourcing talent from over 10 countries in Latin America and covering nearly 17 different technologies including iOS, React, React Native, AWS, JavaScript, .NET, among others.
→ Product Lab:
This service line is designed for small to mid-sized companies looking to outsource the development of their digital products. Whether creating apps or websites from scratch, building an MVP, developing a second version with new features, or enhancing existing products, Thaloz provides comprehensive end-to-end services.
Through dedicated product teams, Thaloz supports clients throughout the entire development process. This includes startups like Plentiful, a non-profit reservation system from New York City with over 11 million visits. Thaloz also works with mid-sized companies such as Metz & Associates, an accounting firm based in Arizona, by developing a comprehensive Learning and Development (L&D) platform.
Thaloz presence in the US
With over 90% of their clients in the US, Thaloz leaders travel once or twice a quarter to visit clients, forge new connections, and expand their network. During these trips, they attend many events, but they also host events.
This year, Thaloz was one of the companies organizing an official New York Tech Week, with over 100 guests from San Francisco, New York, Boston, and surrounding areas. This event, located in the heart of Manhattan, was a significant success for the company.
However, that wasn't all. Thaloz was also featured on one of the biggest screens known: Times Square. Showcasing their services and demonstrating their constant presence in the US, this feature highlighted their growing influence in the tech community.
Looking ahead
As Thaloz continues to expand its presence in both Latin America and the US, the company's dedication to offering top nearshore talent and tech consulting remains at the forefront of its mission.
