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.
You define the role
Role, stack, seniority and compensation range. No volume minimums — start with a single position.
Sourcing and technical screening
We search across Mexico and LATAM, filter for real experience, and run technical screening before presenting anyone.
You receive evaluated profiles
A shortlist with concrete evidence of what the candidate can actually do, not just a resume.
You hire, directly
As a contractor, through your own entity, or the EOR you already use. Klyver doesn't sit in the employment relationship.
Placement fee
A one-time placement fee, quoted per role by seniority. No retainer and no recurring monthly billing per candidate. We send the proposal within 24 business hours. Replacement guarantee based on seniority.
Observed compensation
Two different markets, both checked on Sep 20, 2026. Pay for remote roles with US-facing companies is quoted in US dollars; the local Mexican market is quoted in pesos. They are not the same labor market, so do not subtract one from the other.
Remote roles with US-facing companies (annual salary, USD)
| Seniority | Annual salary | Employer cost (1.3 to 1.4 times) |
|---|---|---|
| Junior (0 to 2 years) | $24,000 to $28,000 | $31,200 to $39,200 |
| Mid-level (2 to 5 years) | $42,000 to $66,000 | $54,600 to $92,400 |

General software developers; the source notes Mexico City and remote roles often carry a 10 to 25% premium. The multiplier covers IMSS, Infonavit, the mandatory year-end bonus (aguinaldo) and profit sharing (PTU) under formal employment.
Local Mexican market (average monthly pay, MXN)
| Title | Monthly average | Salaries in sample | Updated | Source |

Indeed Mexico publishes a single average per title and no range. Samples under 100 salaries are indicative only.
Frequently asked questions
Technical screening focuses on decisions only made while operating clusters in production: troubleshooting under pressure, autoscaling design, incident management, and architecture trade-offs. A certification can be an initial filter, but it doesn't replace the evidence of real operational experience we look for in the evaluation.
AWS (Solutions Architect, DevOps Engineer), Azure (AZ-400, AZ-104), GCP (Professional Cloud Architect), and CKA/CKAD for Kubernetes. We treat them as a complementary signal, not a substitute for technical evaluation.
Both. SRE and DevOps share much of the talent pool and evaluation process, though the emphasis on observability, SLOs, and on-call is greater for SRE-specific roles.
Yes. A good share of senior talent in Mexico and LATAM has experience with more than one cloud provider, which is common among infrastructure teams migrating or operating hybrid architectures.
We also recruit these profiles.
