Why teams choose Silicon Development
Not a marketplace or a resume pile. A managed way to add senior engineers who fit how your team already works.
You get the engineer, not the paperwork
Silicon Development is the employer of record across Latin America. We handle contracts, payroll, compliance, and equipment, so you manage an engineer and not a vendor relationship.
Vetted for your environment, not just a resume
You review 2-3 candidates per role, screened for codebase maturity, data sensitivity, and review standards before anyone reaches your calendar.
Flat monthly pricing, accountable through ramp
Senior embedded engineers at a predictable monthly rate. Weekly fit management through the first month, and replace-or-credit if the fit is not working.
Roles we staff, matched to critical product work
Software Engineers
For product features, backend systems, integrations, and application work that needs to live inside your team's standards, codebase, and release process.
Data Engineers
For pipelines, warehousing, analytics infrastructure, and the data systems behind reporting, internal operations, and product intelligence.
DevOps Engineers
For infrastructure, CI/CD, observability, cloud operations, reliability, and the delivery systems that keep product teams moving.
AI Engineers
For LLM integrations, RAG systems, AI-powered features, and the inference infrastructure that turns AI capabilities into working product functionality.
A practical path from open role to first-month contribution
Run the Critical Role Diagnostic
Start with the open role, the stack, the review loop, the data constraints, and what the delay is costing the team.
Map the operating environment
We document the workflow the engineer has to enter: data sensitivity, release process, communication load, production expectations, and first-month success criteria.
Review 2-3 matched engineers
You see a short list, each with the technical match, relevant environment experience, communication profile, ramp curve, and watchouts made explicit.
Embed with weekly fit management
The engineer joins your team workflow. Silicon Development stays close during the first month so contribution, blockers, and fit are visible early.
