Build a full engineering team in Argentina without opening a local entity. IT Mates recruits and vets your senior engineers, and our local Employer of Record partner employs them under Argentine law — so recruiting and employment run as one program.
An Employer of Record is the legal employer on paper. You decide who joins, what they build and how the team is run.
Our local EOR partner signs an Argentine employment contract with each engineer, registers them, runs payroll in pesos, pays social security contributions and statutory benefits, and handles the legal side of the relationship. Your engineers are full employees with every right that comes with it — they're simply on the partner's payroll instead of yours.
For senior candidates, that matters: many of the best engineers in Argentina prefer an employment contract with health coverage, paid vacation and a 13th salary over a contractor invoice. For you, it removes the classification risk of long, exclusive contractor relationships and the work of running Argentine payroll yourself.
IT Mates is the recruiting partner; the EOR partner is the legal employer. We coordinate both, so offers, contracts and start dates move together.
