Which roles LATAM is hiring right now
Where the demand is
The countries with the most open positions. It is a proxy for two things at once: where there is a real startup ecosystem, and where the talent that already knows how to work inside one lives.

The split by vertical says a lot about which profiles you will find with prior experience and which ones you will have to train.

How remote this market really is
Out of 10,111 active openings, 1,093 are posted explicitly as remote: 11%. That is well below what the conversation about remote work in the region suggests, and it is useful if you hire from abroad: most of these companies still think locally, so a remote offer competes against fewer alternatives than it seems.
What this page is not
Let's be clear, because plenty of people sell this:
- We do not recruit. No sourcing, no candidate screening, no placement fees.
- We are not an EOR. We do not hire on your behalf, run payroll or sign contracts.
- We do not post jobs. We detect them from each company's official career site. Startups do not pay us to appear and there is no way to buy a spot on the list.
What we do have is the map: which roles are moving, in which countries, in which industries, updated every day.
How to use this data if you are hiring
- Size up your competition. If there are dozens of open roles like yours in the country you are looking at, your offer is being compared against all of them.
- Calibrate the work model. With most of the market posting on-site or hybrid, a well-paid remote position stands out more than you would expect.
- Pick the market by ecosystem, not by population. Per-country counts tell you where startups are actually hiring, which is not always where the most people live.
- Come back. This page moves with the inventory: in two weeks the numbers are different.

Frequently asked questions
How do you hire remote talent in LATAM from a European or US company?
You need three things: a legal way to hire (a local entity, an EOR, or a contractor agreement depending on the country), a salary band that competes with the local market, and a channel to find people. This page covers the third one with data: which roles are open, in which countries and in which industries.
Which tech roles are most in demand at LATAM startups?
The three with the most open positions right now are Sales, Engineering, Data & Analytics. The full list, with a count for each, is further up this page and updates daily.
Which LATAM countries are best for hiring remote tech talent?
It depends what you are after, but the volume of open positions is a good first filter: it signals where there is an active startup ecosystem, and therefore talent with experience in that context. The countries with the most demand today are Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile.
Is TrabajaEnLatam a recruiting agency or an EOR?
No. We do not source or screen, we charge no placement fees and we hire nobody on your behalf. We are an aggregator: we detect openings that companies already published on their own career sites.

No. We accept no submissions and no payment for placement. Listings are detected automatically from the official career sites of the companies we track, and that is precisely what keeps the inventory clean.
