Senior LATAM Engineers, in US Hours, Onboarded in Weeks
For CTOs and product leaders who need to ship faster but cannot solve it with US hiring. Seeed places senior LATAM engineers into your team with US time-zone overlap, Miami-managed accountability, and a 30-day replacement guarantee.
The Numbers, Not the Pitch
0–3 hour time-zone overlap with US Eastern. Engineers across Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, Uruguay, and Venezuela work standard US business hours, not "we have some morning crossover."
4–6 week onboarding from intro meeting to first merged PR. Faster than most internal hiring loops, with senior engineers pre-vetted and ready to assign.
Production work for Samsonite LATAM (5 commerce projects), Province Electric (DDI Advantix + Medusa), and Seeed's own Square SaaS suite — Cashless, Just Reservations, WTZON.
Built for Three Buyer Profiles
CTOs Outpacing Their Hiring Pipeline
Your roadmap is bigger than your hiring plan. US hiring takes 90+ days for senior engineers and your sprint can't wait. You need a senior engineer at a desk in 4–6 weeks, not a recruiter pipeline conversation.
Product Leaders Who Lost a Senior
A senior engineer left and the team is bleeding velocity. You need a like-for-like replacement before institutional knowledge erodes — not a junior who needs 6 months of mentoring.
Engineering VPs at $20M–$500M Companies
You're not a startup that can move fast and break things. You need senior engineers who can read a codebase, ship to production, and own on-call rotations. Offshore vendors with churn problems don't cut it.
Seeed vs Typical Nearshore Vendors
Typical vendors: mixed seniority, often presented as "senior" with 2–3 years experience. Seeed: minimum 5 years for a senior placement, with public production work we can show you. We do not place engineers we have not personally worked with.
Engineer Seniority

Typical vendors: mixed seniority, often presented as "senior" with 2–3 years experience. Seeed: minimum 5 years for a senior placement, with public production work we can show you. We do not place engineers we have not personally worked with.
Engineer Seniority
Talk to SeeedTypical vendors: "9am–6pm local time" which can mean 3am–noon Eastern in Eastern Europe or India. Seeed: engineers work 9am–6pm US Eastern or Central regardless of physical location. Standups and pairing happen live.
Time-Zone Overlap
Talk to SeeedTypical vendors: account manager who escalates to a delivery lead in another time zone, who escalates to the engineer's manager. Seeed: one Miami-based account lead who owns the engagement end-to-end. Direct accountability, no offshore-side delivery layer.
Accountability
Talk to SeeedTypical vendors: IP transfer through chain-of-contracts (you ↔ vendor ↔ subcontractor ↔ engineer) with paperwork issues at acquisition time. Seeed: US entity-to-entity contract, IP rights transfer directly to you, no third-party subcontractors.
IP & Contracts
Talk to SeeedTypical vendors: "we will work to find a suitable replacement" with no timeline commitment. Seeed: 30-day fit window with at-no-charge replacement, in writing in the engagement contract.
Replacement
Talk to SeeedTeam Extension or Dedicated Pod
Team Extension — Senior LATAM engineers embed in your team. They join your standups, your repo, your on-call rotation. You direct the work. Seeed handles employment, payroll, retention, and replacement.
Dedicated Pod — A self-contained pod (PM + 3–6 engineers + designer) owns a product or initiative. Pod has its own roadmap and sprint cadence and reports into your leadership. Common for new product builds or ring-fenced platform work.
Project Delivery (secondary) — Fixed-scope, fixed-timeline build for clients who need an outcome rather than an ongoing team. Common for greenfield commerce, migrations, and integration projects.
Production Work, Not Slides
Samsonite LATAM — 5 Commerce Projects
Unified split checkout (omnichannel conversion lift), 99% address-accuracy last-mile fix, regionalized checkout governance, Jasper PIM + Klevu AI integration (doubled search conversion), and reduced store launch time. Multi-year engagement; ongoing.
Province Electric — Magento → Medusa + Square + DDI
Migrated a wholesale electrical distributor off Magento to Medusa.js with Square payments and the only published DDI Advantix integration in the Medusa ecosystem. Eliminated annual licensing while preserving the ERP that runs the business.
Seeed's Own SaaS Stack
Cashless (event QR payments), Just Reservations (Square restaurant reservations), and WTZON (multi-vendor event ticketing) all run in production today, built and maintained by the same LATAM team you would hire.
medusa-square-plugin
The only published Medusa.js v2 + Square integration on npm. Maintained openly. The team that built and maintains it is the team that ships your work.
