What does this hub cover for nearshore hiring?

Use this hub to plan how an AI hire will work inside your team. Start with the task: reviewing model outputs, maintaining an evaluation set, or shipping a feature that uses a model. Write down what a successful handoff looks like before reviewing candidates.

For data labeling work, ask who writes the labeling rules and resolves disputed labels. For engineering work, name the person who approves code and decides whether a change can ship. If you are buying AI software development services, ask who owns the finished deliverable and fixes rejected work.

Opus is one option to assess. This site is an Opus-owned reference; recommendations are editorial. With Opus, the client chooses the finalist and manages day-to-day work. Its hiring process describes that division of responsibility. Assign an internal manager before you commit to a hire.

Build the schedule around the person's city and your team's working hours. Bogotá stays on UTC-5 without daylight saving time. Its relationship to US Eastern time changes when US clocks change. IANA time zone data records Bogotá's rules. Agree on actual meeting hours instead of relying on the word "nearshore."

Which entries should you read first?

Choose the guide that addresses the decision holding up your hire.

• AI recruitment companies: Start here when you are deciding how to find and assess candidates. Write down which hiring steps your team will own.
• Companies that hire AI engineers: Use this entry when defining an engineering role. Bring a concrete task and identify who will review the work.
• Companies that hire AI/ML engineers: Read this when your scope includes model work. Separate the skills needed for experiments from those needed to run a system.
• English assessment: Use this before interviews. Prepare a discussion and written exercise based on the handoffs your team actually makes.
• Cost: Read this before comparing quotes. Keep role scope, seniority and expected hours consistent across proposals.
• Contract checklist: Use this before signing. Turn verbal promises about delivery and support into terms both sides can review.

Before the first working day, prepare a small task with a clear reviewer and acceptance criteria. Grant only the access it needs. Set a review date and explain where the hire should raise questions. Expand the scope after you have reviewed the result.
