# About EnzRossi EnzRossi builds AI-ready product and engineering teams in Latin America. We are a Brazilian technology company that helps US companies build and scale product and engineering teams in LATAM: developers, QA engineers, designers, product managers, technical leads, AI/ML specialists, and complete cross-functional teams. We work as a long-term engineering partner, with senior talent and US time zone overlap. Website: https://enzrossi.com/about Founded: 2022 Headquarters: Maringá, Paraná, Brazil Contact: contact@enzrossi.com --- ## What We Do EnzRossi builds product and engineering teams for US companies through six main services: - **Staff augmentation**: one or more engineers embedded directly in a US team - **Dedicated product and engineering teams**: a complete team (tech lead, engineers, QA, designer, product support) that owns a product area - **Custom software development**: fixed-scope builds with defined timelines, milestone billing, and deliverables - **AI and ML development**: models, predictions, and LLM features built into the client's product - **Web and mobile development**: full-stack and mobile teams - **Product, QA, design, and technical leadership support**: the roles around the code Three reasons companies choose EnzRossi: 1. Senior LATAM talent with US time zone overlap (UTC-3 to UTC-5, 4 to 7 hours of daily overlap with the US East Coast, full overlap with West Coast afternoons). 2. AI-ready teams with continuous training. Teams use AI in planning, coding, testing, documentation, research, and code review. People still do peer review, testing, QA, and sign-off. People remain responsible for engineering decisions and delivery. 3. Rigorous technical and soft-skill screening: technical knowledge, communication, ownership, collaboration, and the ability to work with US-based teams. AI-ready means our teams apply AI to everyday tasks and evaluate its output. It combines practical AI fluency with continuous training, technical screening, and human judgment. It describes how teams work; it is not a certification or a fixed productivity promise. We also offer AI/ML engineering services, predictive analytics, AI automation, and tech consulting — all staffed with engineers from our vetted talent pool. --- ## Our Story EnzRossi was founded in 2022 by Alisson Enz. The company started with a simple observation: most staffing companies match engineers on technical keywords and availability, without asking whether the engineer can actually function in a US distributed team. Communication gaps, ownership issues, and cultural misalignment cause most placements to fail — not technical skill gaps. The answer was a five-dimension vetting process and a training program engineers complete before their first engagement. Both set EnzRossi apart from the typical agency model. Milestones: - 2022: Founded in Maringá, Brazil - 2023: First 50 engineers placed with US clients - 2024: Launched Vetted, the internal talent platform - 2025: 200+ engineers placed, expanded internal team to support growth - 2026: 3,000+ engineer database, AI services launched --- ## Mission and Values **Mission**: Connect the best engineers in Latin America with US companies that know how to work with distributed teams — and make that connection faster, more reliable, and more lasting than any other path. **Values**: 1. Continuous Learning Every engineer in our network is expected to keep growing. We make that easier through our training program and ongoing development support. 2. Soft Skills First Technical ability gets engineers through the door. Communication, ownership, and judgment keep them there. We test for both from day one. 3. Transparency & Integrity We tell clients what we actually think. If a candidate isn't the right fit, we say so. If an engagement isn't working, we address it directly. 4. 10x Execution We'd rather place one engineer who ships 10x than ten engineers who ship 1x. Quality over volume, always. --- ## The Five Vetting Dimensions Every engineer passes a five-dimension evaluation before being placed: 1. **Technical depth**: Multi-stage technical interview (architecture, live coding, code review, take-home project). Tests working knowledge, not memorization. 2. **English communication**: Structured behavioral interview in English. Minimum B2. Written communication assessed separately. 3. **AI tool fluency**: Practical demonstration of AI tools (GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT) in a real workflow context. 4. **Ownership mindset**: Behavioral interview focused on proactive communication, judgment under ambiguity, and ability to finish without hand-holding. 5. **Cultural alignment**: Familiarity with US norms: direct feedback, async-first workflows, initiative over permission-seeking. Only 5% of applicants pass all five dimensions. Most fail on communication and ownership — not technical ability. --- ## Training Program Before their first placement, engineers complete a preparation program covering: - US team communication norms and async-first workflows - Direct feedback culture: giving and receiving without defensiveness - AI tool integration: practical workflows with Copilot, Cursor, and Claude - Soft skills: structured communication, status updates, ambiguity handling - Cultural alignment: US startup and scaleup team expectations The training program is what makes day-one integration faster and more reliable. --- ## The Team (Internal) EnzRossi's internal team of 8 manages sourcing, vetting, account management, compliance, and operations: - **Alisson Enz** — Founder & CEO - **Tatiana Muller** — HR - **Gabriel Carrano** — Sales - **Matheus Helal** — Compliance - **Henrique Massey** — Marketing - **Bruna Passerini** — Psychology & Knowledge - **Manyfe Duarte** — Product Manager - **Gabriel Gratival** — Operations --- ## Vetted — The Talent Platform Vetted (https://vetted.enzrossi.com) is EnzRossi's internal talent platform where engineers apply, are screened, and are matched to engagements. It manages the talent database of 3,000+ engineers and tracks placement history, availability, and vetting status. Engineers apply through Vetted. Only those who pass the five-dimension vetting process become available for placement. --- ## Key Numbers - 200+ engineers currently placed with US clients - 3,000+ engineers in the talent database - Top 5% acceptance rate (1 in 20 applicants passes) - 97% client satisfaction score - First shortlist in 3 business days - Partnerships with universities, bootcamps, and talent networks across LATAM --- ## Further Reading - How the placement process works: https://enzrossi.com/how-it-works - What sets us apart from other staffing companies: https://enzrossi.com/what-sets-us-apart - Why hire from Latin America: https://enzrossi.com/why-latam - Hire by role: https://enzrossi.com/hire - Full LLM context: https://enzrossi.com/llms-full.txt
