LLMOps & Model Optimization Engineer
We ensure your AI solutions are built by experts through a specialized machine learning and data science-focused vetting process.
We verify experience with production-grade LLM orchestration, Vector DB optimization, and fine-tuning frameworks.

They don't just solve algorithms. They are tested on AI-specific challenges: model selection, feature engineering, data preprocessing, and deployment strategies for ML models.

We watch them build. Whether it's training a model or preprocessing data with Pandas, we see how they approach AI problems and implement solutions in real-time.

English C1/C2 is mandatory. We ensure they can participate in AI strategy discussions and explain complex machine learning concepts and model results to your team.

We confirm their track record with past US-based clients, specifically checking for their experience with production AI systems and data science best practices.

We handle the LATAM legal complexities. You get a senior AI developer who is fully compliant, while we manage the payroll and local benefits.
Hiring through Next Idea Tech feels like hiring locally. We bridge the distance so your team stays fast.
Our AI engineers work your exact hours (9-5 EST/PST). They are present for your morning standups and available in real-time on Slack—no 'overnight' delays.
They don't work in a silo. They integrate directly into your Jira, GitHub, and Slack. They follow your PR review process and architectural standards from Day 1.
We handle the 'heavy lifting' of international employment. Local taxes, LATAM labor law compliance, health benefits, and equipment—we take care of it all so you can focus on the roadmap.
We are so confident in our 6-step vetting process that we take on 100% of the initial risk.
If your new AI engineer doesn’t exceed your expectations in the first two weeks, you don’t pay a cent. We’ll either find a better match or part ways—no questions asked.

Real feedback from real clients who've experienced our LATAM Software Development expertise

I started my career writing code, solving hard problems and building systems that improved people's lives. But over time, I noticed something broken – not in the tech, but in the hiring. Companies needed developers fast, but the process was slow, expensive, and full of bad fits.
The breakthrough came when I discovered LATAM talent. The quality was exceptional. The work ethic was strong. The time zones aligned perfectly. Yet most companies were missing out because they were stuck with flaky freelancers, bloated dev shops, or didn't know how to navigate nearshore hiring properly.
That awareness led to Next Idea Tech. We're not a dev shop or a staffing agency. We're your remote hiring partner – connecting U.S. companies with reliable LATAM engineering talent without the usual headaches.
We focus on fit, clarity, and performance. Our developers work in U.S. time zones with strong English skills. We stay involved post-hire to make sure things are working. We build trust through transparency – with both clients and talent.
We work with businesses seeking high-quality, budget-friendly talent who treat their people with respect and dignity, regardless of location. Because nearshore doesn't mean second-tier – LATAM talent can outperform when integrated properly.
Our Philosophy
"We vet for more than code. We look for thinkers, not just doers. Good hiring is about people, not just pipelines."
An AI developer specializes in building systems that learn, adapt, and make decisions going beyond traditional application development. While full stack engineers focus on delivering user-facing features and backend logic, AI developers design and implement algorithms, models, and data pipelines that power intelligent behavior in software. They work at the intersection of software engineering, data science, and machine learning.
We don't waste time on repeat interviews or a myriad of coding tests. The focus is on finding qualified AI developers quicker than with traditional recruiting.
