Companies Scaling with Alcor

Alcor is a reliable partner that meets our hiring needs. We finally hired experienced software engineers in Eastern Europe with strong tech skills and business acumen. Account Managers are awesome!

We interviewed a lot of EoR platforms and companies, but Alcor was the only one that provides a combo package of EoR and Recruting offerings. Alcor helped us build a full stack team in 1.5 month.

Dmitrii Iermiichuk Head of Engineering Gotransverse

We wanted to switch from our outsourcing provider, and Alcor has become really game-changing for us. Within a mere 6 months, we got a fully-fledged team of 30 engineers in our own R&D office.

Why is it better for tech companies to hire software engineers in Argentina via Alcor than a tech outsourcing provider?

Tech outsourcing and outstaffing can pose significant risks for technology companies. Issues like team indifference, hidden fees, and potential data breaches are just a few examples of hurdles that can arise when engaging with outsourced services firms. On the other hand, hiring developers from Argentina via a trustworthy IT staffing agency is devoid of these risks, as companies keep all decision-making under their control.

What do I need to start hiring developers in Argentina with Alcor?

Firstly, you need to have a clear picture of the number and type of dedicated tech talent in Argentina you want to hire. Decide on team composition, skill sets, and expertise levels. If you need to hire senior top-tier tech experts in Argentina, it typically takes us 2-6 weeks to close positions, while C-level and rare experts require 5-9 weeks on average. Plus, you need to decide whether you prefer to hire developers on B2B or FTE terms, as it will determine the scope of Employer of Record services that you will need.

When you have a clear request, you can book a call where our sales managers will walk you through our services and pricing model and provide you with a developer availability report and salary benchmarks. Once we’ve negotiated the best cooperation terms and signed the agreement, Alcor’s full-cycle tech recruitment service kicks in.

Do you use FTE or B2B models of employment when hiring in Argentina?

We hire dedicated developers from Argentina both on a B2B and FTE basis. Which one should you choose as a tech executive?

B2B contracts are the simplest way to hire remote developers, as you don’t need a legal entity in Argentina. You can pay higher net salaries while avoiding costly social security contributions, payroll tax, and personal income tax—your tech workers handle their tax obligations. But even this function Alcor takes care of, so your developers could have peace of mind. Plus, our lawyers can advise you on contract provisions, ensuring you hire tech talent from Argentina on the best terms for both parties.

Want to hire a software development team in Argentina on an FTE basis? Alcor’s Employer of Record service has you covered. We already have legal entities abroad, so you bypass business incorporation hurdles. Our lawyers will draft tech-focused employment contracts, with local labor law specifics included, and mitigate any risks related to worker misclassification, social security, and tax obligation. Meanwhile, Alcor’s payroll specialists will take care of taxes, social contributions, and accurate salary payouts so you can focus on your product development instead.
