Borders Unlocked: My Journey in IT Nearshoring

I confess: I have spent nearly a decade discovering the brightest tech talent, and each project feels like cracking a unique secret code. I’m Yajaira Castillo, and at Proceti, I’ve learned that nearshoring is not just a resource; it’s an art of connections.

Imagine unlocking a team of developers without leaving your office. No, it’s not magic. It’s smart nearshoring. According to a 2024 report, 65% of tech companies in North America will consider nearshoring as their main software development strategy, recognizing the power of Latin American tech talent.

Evolution of IT Work Models: Beyond the Traditional Model

The landscape of tech development has undergone an exciting transformation in recent years. Traditional in-house work models are giving way to more flexible and global strategies. Geographical boundaries or rigid organizational structures no longer limit companies. As we all know, the pandemic accelerated this revolution, demonstrating that remote collaboration is possible and highly effective. Distributed teams have become the new normal, with communication and collaboration tools breaking down barriers of distance and time.

Outsourcing Modalities: A Complex and Dynamic Ecosystem

Tech outsourcing is not a one-dimensional concept. Today, companies can choose from multiple modalities tailored to their specific needs:

Staff Augmentation: Integrating external professionals directly into internal teams.
Project-Based Outsourcing: Hiring for specific projects with defined scope and duration.
Managed Services: Complete delegation of technological processes or services.
Nearshoring: Collaborating with talent in nearby countries, optimizing communication and cultural alignment.

Nearshoring: More Than Numbers, It’s About Stories

Nearshoring means:

Talent without geographical limits
Innovation just a click away
Teams that speak your language
Connections that transcend borders

The Pulse Behind Every Project

Every time a project takes off, I feel something more than just a task at hand. It’s the Procetian energy that transforms IT tasks into life-changing solutions. In our daily work, we don’t just build teams; we weave stories born from the Perfect Match.

We have spent over 100,000 hours building bridges between talents and dreams, and each connection we make reminds me why I chose this path. It’s not statistics that drive us; it’s the people, the companies, their challenges, and their infinite potential.

When I see a project delivered successfully, I don’t just celebrate a number; I celebrate a shared journey of transformation that leaves a mark.If you want to learn how to turn your technological challenges into valuable successes, reach out to me at yajaira.castillo@proceti.com.mx
