Hire Brazilian Remote Developers for US Teams

Yes. Many teams start with one Brazilian developer (1 FTE) to validate speed, collaboration, and fit, then scale into multiple roles or a dedicated team. You keep full control of priorities, delivery, and performance—Sunbytes supports sourcing, screening, and setup based on your chosen engagement model.

It depends on your role complexity, stack, seniority, and interview availability. For common roles with clear requirements, we can often deliver a shortlist within a few business days; niche stacks or strict constraints may take longer. If speed is critical, we’ll recommend the fastest path (e.g., staff augmentation vs recruitment vs EOR) during the first call.

Recruitment Service means we help you hire: we source and screen candidates, but you hire directly under your own contract/employment route. EOR (Employer of Record) means we hire on your behalf through an EOR setup—useful when you want a compliant route without setting up a local entity and want payroll/HR administration handled.

You can hire via:

• Staff Augmentation (1 FTE / role-based) to plug a role into your team fast
• Dedicated Team for stable, long-term product delivery
• Recruitment Service if you want to hire directly but need pipeline & screening
• EOR if you want compliant employment setup handled with less admin

We’ll help you choose based on speed, risk, and how much internal hiring capacity you have.

Brazil is nearshore-friendly for US collaboration, making real-time ceremonies like standups, pairing, and fast feedback loops practical. The exact overlap depends on your US time zone and seasonal daylight-saving differences. If you require a minimum overlap window, we’ll screen candidates for that requirement upfront.

In Staff Augmentation and EOR, your team typically manages day-to-day priorities, tasks, and performance—just like an internal hire. For Dedicated Teams, you can either manage directly or add a Team Lead depending on how much delivery governance you want. Sunbytes supports onboarding, alignment, and (if needed) operational check-ins.

We can support standard safeguards such as NDAs, clear IP assignment terms, and access practices aligned to secure delivery (e.g., least-privilege access, controlled environments). The exact contract structure depends on your engagement model (direct hire, EOR, or service contract). If you have specific legal templates or security requirements, we’ll align early in the process.

Yes. You can scale by adding roles (e.g., QA, DevOps, additional engineers) or adjusting capacity as priorities change. The speed of scaling depends on role demand and constraints (stack, overlap, seniority). We’ll agree upfront on a practical notice period and a scaling plan that fits your delivery cycles.

Common roles include Frontend, Backend, Full-stack, Mobile, QA/Test Automation, DevOps/Cloud, and (when needed) Data roles. Share your stack and seniority level and we’ll confirm fit quickly. If a role is niche, we’ll be transparent about expected timelines.
