πŸŽ™οΈ The Nearshore Cafe Podcast | Hosted by Brian Samson

In this episode, Brian Samson β€” founder of Plugg Technologies and host of The Nearshore Cafe Podcast β€” shares a powerful success story from a booming Series A tech startup based in Atlanta. With over $50 million raised, this company had the resources to hire from anywhere in the world. But instead of battling the fierce 2022 Silicon Valley talent wars, they chose a smarter path: senior full-stack developers from Latin America.

πŸ’‘ Hear how Plugg.tech connected their VP of Engineering with top-tier developers from Brazil and Argentina, skilled in React and JavaScript, who not only hit milestones but truly integrated into the team β€” delivering clean, high-quality code and bringing product vision to life.

βœ… Topics covered:

  • Scaling engineering teams post-Series A
  • Why Latin America is a smart talent market
  • Real-world results from nearshore hiring
  • Benefits of hiring senior nearshore developers
