10 Nearshore Software Companies in LatAm You Should Know About

In 2025, building a strong software team doesn’t always mean hiring in-house. For many U.S.-based companies, nearshoring has become the smarter choice. It offers the ability to work with skilled developers in real time, avoid long hiring cycles, and stay flexible without sacrificing quality.

Latin America has become a preferred region for this model. Its proximity to the U.S. makes collaboration easier, and many countries have strong education systems, growing tech ecosystems, and developers who are used to working with international teams.

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Uruguay stand out as particularly strong hubs. Each has its own strengths, but all offer access to experienced developers, strong communication, and a modern approach to building software: often with AI already integrated into workflows.

Below is a selection of 15 companies from the region that are worth knowing if you’re exploring nearshore partnerships. The list includes larger firms and smaller teams, product-focused companies, and service providers with broad capabilities.

1. BairesDev (Argentina)

One of the most established names in the region, BairesDev works with companies of all sizes to assemble development teams and scale engineering capacity. They offer a broad range of services and are known for their rigorous screening process and ability to ramp up quickly.

2. VAIRIX (Uruguay)

VAIRIX partners with startups and product-driven companies to build custom web and mobile applications. Their teams are small, focused, and deeply involved in the work. They prioritize communication, thoughtful architecture, and long-term relationships with clients. VAIRIX is a good fit for companies that want a partner—not just a provider.

3. Globant (Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay)

Globant takes a multidisciplinary approach to software development, combining design, strategy, and engineering under one roof. Their studio model allows them to specialize in areas like AI, gaming, healthcare, and finance, while still offering custom product development.

With a strong reputation for engineering quality, PSL (now part of Perficient) is a trusted partner for companies looking for agile development, DevOps, and scalable systems. They’re a good fit for projects that need process maturity and long-term structure.

5. Qubika (Uruguay, Colombia)

Qubika brings together development, design, and strategy into a unified service offering. Formerly Moove It and Octobot, they’ve rebranded into a single company with a product-first mindset and a collaborative way of working that feels close to in-house.

Tryolabs is a smaller team that specializes in AI, machine learning, and data engineering. They partner with companies that want to apply AI to real problems, often integrating models into applications or building data pipelines from scratch. Their work is research-informed but grounded in usability and business needs.
