A WebRTC Developer builds real-time audio, video, and data applications that run in the browser. They handle peer connections, signaling, NAT traversal, codecs, and the operational realities of running real-time media at scale.
The role commands premium pay in the U.S. but talented professionals in Latin America deliver the same work for a fraction of the cost. The role earns an average U.S. salary of $9,200 per month compared with an average Latin American salary of $3,000 per month, creating potential savings of up to 67%. LatAm has a deep talent pool, with experienced professionals across Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and Mexico, many with several years of experience supporting U.S. teams.
Yes. South contracts the WebRTC Developer locally, handles compliance and payroll, and bills you monthly. The hire joins your tools (Slack, Jira, GitHub, CRM) on day one. Time-zone alignment with the U.S. is the biggest unlock: real-time collaboration, same-day decisions, and none of the overnight handoffs you get when hiring in EMEA or APAC.
Strong JavaScript fundamentals plus deep WebRTC knowledge, hands-on with signaling protocols, and experience with at least one media server (mediasoup, Janus, LiveKit, or Twilio). Senior candidates should have debugged a packet-loss problem in production, handled multi-party calls beyond peer-to-peer, and shipped a feature that scales to hundreds of concurrent participants.
WebRTC, mediasoup, Janus, LiveKit, Twilio Programmable Video, Daily, Agora, Jitsi, plus signaling stacks built on WebSockets or Socket.io and TURN/STUN servers like coturn.
A Front-End Developer builds standard web UI. A WebRTC Developer builds real-time media features: video calls, live streaming, screen share. The skills overlap on JavaScript, but WebRTC demands deep familiarity with networking, codecs, and media servers. Hire a WebRTC Developer when real-time is the product, not a feature.

The region has the perfect mix of everything you want in remote employees: English skills, shared time zones, hard-working, and depth of talent. They are already accustomed to working remotely for top US startups and Fortune 500 companies.
Absolutely! The US and Latin America have basically the same time zones. No Latin American city is more than two hours ahead of EST.
Every hire is sourced based on your exact needs. They will arrive ready to support your business right away. They can do basically any tasks done remotely, but we recommend starting them as support so your team has more bandwidth for high-value strategic tasks.
All types of roles - customer service, executive assistant, sales, accounting, email marketing, lead generation, content writers, operations, social media marketing, and more!
You can pay directly through us (most popular) or we can connect you with one of our payroll partners.
You don't have to deal with any American labor laws / taxes when hiring full-time remote contractors. They aren't US-based, so no visas or sponsorships to deal with either.
We recommend market pay which varies for each role. See our salary guide and success stories for some ideas.
Then, we have two different models:
Staffing (most popular) - We charge a small monthly fee for each employee's monthly salary to make the process hassle-free. The fee covers sourcing, recruiting, admin, payroll, compliance, ongoing support, and a free replacement if necessary at any point. There are no cancellation fees or minimum commitments. You only pay if you make a hire.
Headhunting - A one-time simple fee once we've found the perfect candidate. This comes with a 120-day replacement guarantee.
For both options, you only pay something if we find you someone great that you want to hire.
Yes, we only recruit for full-time and we strongly recommend full-time hiring if you can. Stability (full-time & long-term) is highly sought after abroad. The top caliber candidates are only looking for full-time work.
You're also going to spend time training and getting them up to speed on your processes. It would be a waste to do that over and over again with new people all the time.
We recommend training new hires on one thing at a time.
For example, once they get up to speed on lead generation, you can add the next role writing blog posts or whatever you'd like. You can definitely overlap roles until you have enough work for multiple people.
The cost of living is much less in Latin American countries. Many of our employees are able to own homes, raise families, provide for their parents, and have in-home help of their own with their salaries.
If you aren't happy with your hire in the first 120 days, we will work with you to conduct a second round of search for the same role for free.
