Episode 50:
In this episode of Raw and Relentless, Bo sits down with Gino Ferrand, founder of Tekla, to unpack how startups and mid-market companies are scaling by tapping into LatAm developer talent—without sacrificing quality, time zones, or culture fit.
Gino shares how Tekla helps tech companies build high-performing engineering teams in Latin America, the realities of global hiring, and why AI isn’t replacing developers just yet—but it’s changing how they work.
They dive into:
✅ Why hiring in Latin America is booming for tech
✅ The real cost vs. India, Eastern Europe, and the US
✅ How companies leverage nearshore teams to scale faster
✅ Why AI tools are empowering (not replacing) developers
If you’re thinking about scaling your dev team, cutting costs without cutting corners, or using AI to future-proof your build process, this episode is a must-listen.
