Get Go Developers
Get Go Developers from Latin America
Go engineers who build fast, reliable backend services. Go's simplicity and performance make it a strong fit for microservices, APIs, and infrastructure tooling. LATAM's Go community is smaller but experienced.
Why LATAM for Go development
Strong cost advantage
Senior Go developers in LATAM cost $60-90k vs $160k+ in the US. A meaningful saving for infrastructure and backend roles where seniority commands premium US salaries.
Infrastructure and fintech focus
Go is growing in LATAM's infrastructure and fintech sectors, attracted by its performance profile. Developers here have used it for cloud services and API gateways.
Appreciation for simplicity
Go's philosophy appeals to CS-trained developers who value readable, predictable code over framework magic. LATAM CS graduates tend to fit this profile well.
US-compatible work hours
UTC-3 to UTC-5 means 4-8 hours of daily overlap with US teams. Go teams often work async-heavy, and LATAM developers are well-suited to that.
Production-focused community
LATAM's Go community is small but serious. It focuses on production use: cloud services, API gateways, and CLI tooling rather than hobby projects.
What our Go developers know
Go 1.22+
pgx (PostgreSQL driver)
Redis with go-redis
OpenTelemetry
Prometheus metrics
Multi-stage Docker builds
Kubernetes / HelmHow we vet Go developers
Every candidate completes all seven stages before you see their profile. You can also run your own technical round after our screening.
* For common roles like full-stack. Other roles typically take 7 to 10 days.
CV check
Stage 1We review experience, stack, seniority, and career history against the role before anyone is invited to interview. Most applicants stop here.
Behavioral interview
Stage 2A structured interview assessing communication style, conflict resolution, ownership mindset, and English proficiency in a professional context.
Technical interview 1
Role-specificA 90-minute session focused on Go's concurrency model: goroutines vs threads, channel patterns including buffered vs unbuffered and select with timeouts, and common concurrency bugs like race conditions and deadlocks. Candidates implement a concurrent task processor with worker pools, proper context cancellation, and graceful shutdown. We also cover error handling philosophy, interface design principles (small and focused), and when to use generics vs interfaces in Go 1.21+.
Technical interview 2
Stage 4A second, deeper round on system design, architecture tradeoffs, and code review, matched to the seniority you are hiring for.
Take-home assessment
Stage 5A practical assignment that mirrors real work. We review code quality, testing, documentation, and how the candidate explains their decisions.
Reference check
Stage 6We speak with at least two professional references who worked with the candidate, not personal contacts.
Background check
Stage 7Verification of work history, education, and identity with written consent, aligned with applicable privacy rules including LGPD where relevant.
After our screening, you can optionally run your own technical round before making an offer.

What to expect
What sets our Go developers apart
Go developers who don't understand the concurrency model create subtle bugs that are hard to reproduce. Ours understand goroutines, channels, and context cancellation well enough to build systems that are correct under load, not just under normal conditions.
GitHub Copilot for generating Go interface implementations, test table cases, and gRPC service boilerplate. Go's repetitive patterns benefit from AI acceleration.
AI-assisted generation of OpenAPI documentation from Go handler signatures, keeping API specs current.
They run the Go race detector in CI. Race conditions in Go tests surface issues that would otherwise appear in production.
Clear writing that reflects Go's philosophy: short, direct, informative PR descriptions and commit messages.
They lean on the standard library before adding dependencies. They know what net/http, encoding/json, and sync can do before reaching for a framework.
