Finding the right developers isn’t just a hiring task—it’s a game-changer for your company’s growth, efficiency, and bottom line. The process, however, can be overwhelming, especially when you’re competing for top talent in a highly saturated market. That’s where Plugg Technologies comes in.
Instead of spending months searching for the right developers or settling for someone who’s just “good enough,” companies that partner with Plugg Technologies get access to a pre-vetted pool of top-tier engineers who are ready to work.
Let’s dive into the five biggest benefits of working with Plugg Technologies for your developer recruitment needs.
Did you know it takes an average of 52 days to hire a software engineer? That’s nearly two months of lost productivity—and that’s assuming you even find the right person. According to a survey by Indeed, 86% of employers struggle to hire technical talent, with over 36% calling it “very challenging.”
Why does it take so long?
Sorting through unqualified resumes
Endless rounds of interviews
Candidates ghosting before signing contracts
Competition from other companies offering higher salaries
Now, imagine cutting that time in half—or better yet, hiring in weeks instead of months. That’s what Plugg Technologies does. We connect you with pre-vetted software developers in Latin America, ensuring you only spend time interviewing candidates who already meet your requirements.
The Global Software Developer Shortage is expected to hit 85.2 million unfilled jobs by 2030 (Source: Gartner Tech Reports). Companies leveraging nearshore hiring now will gain a significant competitive advantage before the market tightens even further.
Need to expand your team quickly? The biggest mistake companies make is hiring whoever’s available instead of who’s actually qualified. A rushed hire might mean working with someone who:
Lacks expertise in your tech stack
Doesn’t align with your work culture
Needs months of training before contributing
With Plugg Technologies, you skip these issues. Our developers go through:
Technical skill assessments (coding challenges, live problem-solving)
Soft skill evaluations (communication, collaboration, adaptability)
Rigorous background checks (so you’re not left wondering if someone is actually qualified)
Instead of gambling on a freelancer, you’re hiring a guaranteed top-tier developer who can hit the ground running.
Instead of filtering through thousands of applications, work with a recruitment agency that pre-screens developers. This saves weeks of work and ensures you’re only interviewing candidates who match your exact needs.
Tech hiring isn’t just about filling a role—it’s about attracting the right talent.
A poorly managed recruitment process (slow responses, unclear expectations, hiring delays) damages your company’s reputation. Developers talk. A bad hiring experience can mean losing out on future top talent.
Plugg Technologies prevents this by ensuring:
✅ A structured hiring process with clear expectations
✅ Faster responses to keep candidates engaged
✅ A strong employer brand that appeals to top developers

And above all, at Plugg Technologies we are set apart by our White Glove Service and our down-to-the-roots Latin America expertise.

Let’s talk numbers. Hiring an experienced U.S. software engineer can cost anywhere from $120,000–$180,000 per year (not including benefits, taxes, and overhead costs).
Now, compare that to nearshore developers in Latin America, where:
You get highly skilled engineers at 30-50% lower costs
Developers work in similar time zones (no more 12-hour timezone differences!)
English proficiency is strong, with a focus on U.S. business culture
Hiring top developers at competitive rates gives you more flexibility to scale your team without breaking the bank.
Some of the best nearshore talent pools include Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, which have booming tech ecosystems and strong English-speaking developers. Companies looking to outsource software development are increasingly turning to these markets for talent.
Hiring isn’t just about finding talent. It’s about ensuring that the people you hire drive business results. A bad hire isn’t just a minor inconvenience—it can cost your company over $15,000 per bad hire (Source: Harvard Business Review).
Plugg Technologies ensures that:
✅ You hire high-level expertise at cost-effective rates
✅ Your time-to-market is faster with ready-to-start developers
✅ You gain long-term value instead of short-term fixes
And here’s the best part: Plugg Technologies doesn’t just match you with a developer—we ensure a seamless hiring process with ongoing support, cultural alignment, and quality control.
