What is gmedia.la IT staffing?
It is the service through which you hire software engineers from Peru without building the hiring process yourself. gmedia.la, a company based in Lima and founded in 2010, technically vets candidates, verifies their English (B2 or higher) and experience, and presents 2 or 3 profiles in 5 days. They work on U.S. Eastern/Central time and we handle contract, payments and HR.
Profiles
Which role do you need to add?
Pick a role to see what it does, which stack it covers and when it makes sense to hire it.
Backend
They build the server-side logic: APIs, databases, third-party integrations and the services that keep your product running.
Hire this role when…
- Your API or database is the bottleneck
- You need to integrate payments, ERP or CRM
- You are about to migrate or split a monolith
Frontend
They turn designs into fast, accessible, maintainable interfaces and connect the interface to your APIs.
Hire this role when…
- Your design is ready but you need someone to build it
- You need to improve speed and accessibility
- You want a reusable component system
Fullstack
They cover the interface and the server end to end. Useful on small teams or to launch a product with few people.
Hire this role when…
- You are launching an MVP
- Your team is small and needs versatility
- You want a single person per complete feature
Mobile
They develop iOS and Android apps, native or cross-platform, and take them all the way to the app stores.
Hire this role when…
- Your web product needs its mobile app
- You want a single codebase for iOS and Android
- Your current app needs maintenance
QA
They design and automate tests so every release ships stable: functional, regression and performance tests.
Hire this role when…
- Bugs are reaching production
- Your releases depend on manual testing
- You need to load-test before a traffic peak
DevOps / SRE
They automate deployments, infrastructure and monitoring so the team ships fast and the platform holds up.
Hire this role when…
- Deploying is slow or manual
- You want infrastructure as code
- You need monitoring and incident response
Data
They build the pipelines that move data from your systems to a place where it can be analyzed and used.
Hire this role when…
- Your data is scattered across several systems
- You want reliable reports
- You are about to prepare data for AI models
AI engineer
They integrate language models into your products: assistants, search over your documents and agents that carry out tasks.
Hire this role when…
- You want an assistant that uses your information
- You need to automate processes with LLMs
- You are moving from prototype to production
Tech Lead
They make architecture decisions, review code and raise the technical level of the team they lead.
Hire this role when…
- Your team is growing and lacks technical direction
- You need to define the architecture
- You want mentoring for more junior engineers
Seniority
What level do you need?
The difference is not years of experience, but how much autonomy and responsibility you need on your team.
Junior
Works with guidance and constant review. Contributes on well-scoped tasks and grows with the team.
Mid-level
Delivers complete features with little supervision and already takes part in code reviews.
Senior
Solves ambiguous problems, proposes solutions and takes ownership of the quality of what they deliver.
Tech Lead
Defines the architecture, guides other engineers and connects technical decisions to the business.

Frequently asked questions
What people ask before hiring from Peru
Do not see your question? Write to us and we will reply in under 24 hours.
What engineer profiles can I hire from Peru?
Backend (Node.js, Python, PHP, Go, Java), frontend (React, Vue, Next.js), fullstack, mobile (React Native, Flutter, Swift, Kotlin), QA, DevOps/SRE, data, AI engineers (LLMs, agents, RAG) and tech leads. If you need another stack, tell us and we will check whether we cover it.
How do you vet candidates before presenting them to me?
Every candidate goes through a technical assessment, an English check (B2 minimum) and a review of their experience on real projects. Only then do we present 2 or 3 profiles so you can interview and choose.
How long does it take to receive candidates?
Within the first 5 days you receive vetted candidates. After your interview and selection, onboarding takes 3 to 5 business days, so the engineer is usually working in under 2 weeks from the time you define the profile.
What seniority level do I need: mid-level or senior?
It depends on how much autonomy you need. A senior solves ambiguous problems and takes ownership of quality; a mid-level engineer delivers well-defined features with little supervision. On the 30-minute call, we help you choose based on your team and your backlog.
How much does it cost to hire an engineer through gmedia.la?
We bill in U.S. dollars, per active engineer each month. The rate depends on the role, seniority and duration. After a 30-minute call, you receive a free proposal with a detailed estimate in under 24 hours.
Who hires and pays the engineer?
gmedia.la does. The engineer is part of our team in Peru: we handle the contract, payments, benefits and HR support. You direct the day-to-day work.
What if the engineer is not a fit?
If they are not a technical or cultural fit within the first 4 weeks, we replace them at no additional cost.
Who owns the code they write?
You do. We sign confidentiality agreements (NDAs) and intellectual property assignments from the start, and the engineer works in your repositories under your standards.
Tell us which profile you need and in 5 days you can interview them
A 30-minute call is enough to define role, level and stack.
