How it works

A recruiting process, not an outsourcing template.

Klyver doesn't sell a development factory or run your payroll. We find and screen the professional; you decide how to hire them.

01

You define the role

Role, stack, seniority and compensation range. No volume minimums — start with a single position.

02

Sourcing and technical screening

We search across Mexico and LATAM, filter for real experience, and run technical screening before presenting anyone.

03

You receive evaluated profiles

A shortlist with concrete evidence of what the candidate can actually do, not just a resume.

04

You hire, directly

As a contractor, through your own entity, or the EOR you already use. Klyver doesn't sit in the employment relationship.

05

Placement fee

A one-time payment when you hire, with no retainer and no recurring monthly billing per candidate.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Screening looks for evidence of real work: production integrations with LLMs, RAG architectures running in production, hallucination evaluation and mitigation, and cost/latency trade-off decisions — not just conceptual knowledge of the topic.

Yes. MLOps sits at the intersection of Data/AI and DevOps — we evaluate experience with training pipelines, model versioning, drift monitoring, and production deployment.

A Data Engineer is evaluated more on pipelines, orchestration, and data infrastructure. An Analytics Engineer is evaluated on data modeling, quality, and the semantic layer for business consumption. They're different screenings even though the tools overlap.

Yes. It's a common case: companies that need their first Data Engineer or Analytics Engineer to lay the foundation, without hiring a full team from day one.
