What we deliver
Whether you need a single senior engineer, a full squad, or a fractional CTO to set technical direction — SAMO scales with you from your first hire to your Series B.
Senior LATAM and European software engineers who join your team full-time. Time-zone aligned, English-fluent, and vetted for emotional intelligence as carefully as for code quality.
Get a seasoned CTO without the full-time price tag. Architecture reviews, hiring strategy, cloud cost reduction, and a clear technical roadmap that survives your next funding round.
For founders pre-product or rebuilding from scratch: a small senior squad takes you from a Figma file or a written spec to a production-ready MVP — without burning your runway on agency markups.
Built for every stage
We pick the right team shape, contract structure and engagement model for where your company is today — and adjust as you grow. Pick your stage to see how we work with you.
Bootstrapped / Self-funded
$0 – $250K ARR
Replace expensive contractors with one senior engineer who knows what to build, how to ship, and where to cut scope. No agency overhead, no padding.
Pre-seed / Seed
Raised $0.5M – $5M
A small senior squad to turn your pitch deck into a production MVP. We embed alongside your founding engineer, not around them — so velocity stays high after we hand off.
Series A
Raised $5M – $20M
You have product-market fit and a first cohort of engineers — now you need to triple capacity in a quarter. SAMO supplies vetted senior talent that integrates with your existing eng. processes.
Series B+
Raised $20M+
For VPs of Engineering who need an extension of their org — not a vendor. Long-term retention, security and compliance reviews, and direct contracts under US law.
Our system and process to find top tier talent is not just focused on technical skills. We understand that cultural fit, high EI and personality play a big role as well.

Emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to understand and manage emotions, and empathize with others. For software engineers, EI is crucial as it enhances communication and teamwork. In cross-functional teams, EI fosters collaboration, improves understanding of diverse perspectives, and helps navigate interpersonal dynamics, leading to more effective problem-solving and innovation.
Finding team members with the right technical proficiency is essential for effective project contribution. Skilled individuals tackle complex problems, write efficient code, and adapt quickly to new technologies, boosting productivity and ensuring high-quality deliverables. This proficiency drives both team and project success.
Great communication skills are crucial for engineers as they enable clear and effective collaboration with team members, stakeholders, and clients. These skills ensure that technical ideas are conveyed accurately, reducing misunderstandings and enhancing project efficiency. Effective communication also fosters a positive team environment, leading to better problem-solving and innovation.
