Time Zone-Aligned Teamwork: Unlock LATAM Nearshoring Potential

Latin America stands out as the premier region offering time zone-friendly nearshoring options. Depending on the season and your location in the U.S. or Canada, the direct overlap in working hours with your Latin American team can vary from three to eight hours a day. Typically, nearshoring roles like development or data engineering in Latin America do not necessitate a full overlap in working hours. Often, just a few hours of overlap, enough to conduct a morning Scrum and other critical meetings, are sufficient.

It’s important to remember that a significant majority of IT professionals in Latin America are keen to collaborate with North American companies. They are generally flexible about adjusting their schedules to become part of a seamlessly integrated remote team.
