Interfell

What Interfell does

Interfell is a Miami-headquartered (legally Sanford, Florida) remote talent management platform that connects Latin American IT professionals with companies primarily in the United States, Spain, and Latin America. Founded in 2016, the company operates through three legal entities — Interfell Corp (Florida, USA), Interfellows SL (Barcelona, Spain), and Interfell SAS (Medellín, Colombia) — and has facilitated more than 2,000 employment contracts for over 250 client companies across at least eight verticals including fintech, software, manufacturing, accounting, and digital transformation.

The core offering is organized into three integrated service lines: IT Recruiting (direct hire), Staffing Remoto (staff augmentation with ongoing management), and Payroll + HR Remoto (multi-country payroll and compliance). These are delivered via structured Smart Hiring Plans and underpinned by the Simera technology platform, which hosts a proprietary database of 2.5 million+ pre-qualified LATAM professionals. The recently launched SPK (Simera Professional Key) uses AI to enrich candidate profiles and accelerate matching, while supporting assets — the annual LATAM salary guide, the Smart Hiring podcast on Spotify, and an ebook library — function as demand-generation and thought-leadership content.

Revenue is generated through two complementary mechanics: non-refundable recruitment fees on Smart Hiring Plans (initial payment for marketing and job posting, final payment within 15 days of candidate start) and recurring monthly managed-services fees on Staffing and Payroll contracts (invoiced before the 20th of each month). Go-to-market is sales-led, combining direct enterprise field sales with an inside-sales funnel driven by the website, Calendly consultations, and content downloads. The company employs 11–50 people across its three jurisdictions and is led by co-founders Juan Manuel Rodríguez and Daniel Juárez (Co-CEOs) with Aurora Pérez as Head of People. No external funding rounds have been disclosed, indicating bootstrapped growth to date.

Direct peers

• BairesDev: BairesDev is the largest nearshore IT staffing firm from Latin America, providing dedicated development teams of LATAM engineers to US and global enterprises. It directly competes with Interfell's core IT recruiting and staff augmentation offering, with a similar value proposition but vastly larger scale and venture backing.
• Toptal: Toptal operates a global freelance talent marketplace emphasizing top-tier software developers, designers, and finance experts with rigorous vetting. It competes with Interfell's premium positioning around pre-vetted talent and AI-assisted matching, though at a global rather than LATAM-exclusive scale.
• Andela: Andela connects global enterprises with vetted remote engineers, historically from Africa and increasingly from LATAM and other regions. It is a direct peer to Interfell in AI-assisted talent matching and dedicated engineering team staffing for enterprise buyers.
• Turing: Turing is an AI-powered developer-matching platform connecting US companies with vetted remote engineers globally, including from LATAM. It competes directly with Interfell on AI-driven candidate matching, dedicated developers, and enterprise staffing.
• DistantJob: DistantJob is a recruitment agency specializing in placing remote developers, designers, and marketers from LATAM and Eastern Europe with US/Canadian companies. It is a direct peer to Interfell in IT talent sourcing, time-zone-aligned remote staffing, and dedicated team offerings.
• Arc.dev: Arc is a remote developer marketplace offering pre-vetted engineers with AI-assisted matching and timezone alignment to US/EU buyers. It competes with Interfell on the talent pool/marketplace model and AI-driven candidate-job fit, though at a smaller scale and without LATAM specialization.

Broad incumbents

• Remote: Remote is a global HR platform offering Employer of Record, payroll, and contractor management across 80+ countries. It is a broad incumbent competitor to Interfell's Payroll + HR Remoto offering and overlaps on the staff augmentation go-to-market, though its portfolio is far wider than LATAM-focused staffing.
• Deel: Deel is a leading global payroll and Employer of Record platform supporting contractor and employee hiring across 150+ countries. It competes with Interfell's Payroll + HR Remoto service and increasingly bundles talent sourcing, overlapping with Interfell's full-stack staffing model.
• Globant: Globant is a large publicly-traded digital transformation services firm headquartered in Argentina with deep LATAM engineering talent pools serving global enterprises. It is a broader incumbent that overlaps with Interfell's IT staffing and AI/digital transformation offerings (e.g., the Yachay joint venture), though at much larger scale and as a services firm rather than staffing agency.

Regional players

• Worky.ai: Worky (formerly WorkOnward) is a LATAM-focused remote staffing platform connecting companies with vetted Latin American professionals across IT and operations roles. It is comparable to Interfell in geographic focus and multi-role staffing, though typically more weighted toward the US market.
