Czym zajmuje się Howdy.com

Why Howdy.com? Howdy was founded in 2018 to help Austin startups hire talented engineers who work within US time zones in Latin America. Since then we’ve grown to a team of over 600, and our platform has enabled hundreds of companies to hire individual teammates, set up remote, hybrid or in-office teams, and manage remote equipment assets and benefits. Join over 200 companies, like Coinbase,Truepill, Vanta, and other YC companies that have hired with Howdy to build their tech outpost in Latin America. Better talent: Howdy is deeply involved in the Latin American tech scene, regularly hosting meetups and inviting speakers and industry leaders into our local communities called Howdy Houses throughout Latin America. We get to personally know the top tech leaders who are interested in joining product teams in the US for the long-term. These individuals are not actively seeking jobs through freelancer platforms. 98% retention: Developer churn slows teams down. That’s why, when you hire with Howdy, developers are automatically provided with premium health insurance, top-of-the-line Apple equipment, gym memberships, lunches and the use of class-A office spaces. Your engineering culture: When you partner with Howdy, you're not just hiring individuals; you're gaining access to a skilled local workforce that becomes an extension of your team. We provide full support in all areas, from recruitment to equipment and office spaces, allowing you to build and directly oversee your engineering outpost in Latin America as your team grows.

Our product supports recruiting, onboarding, equipment procurement, office space, and ongoing benefits to retain talent locally as an extension of their US teams.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Austin, TX, and the company is based here and will remain here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Austin is where we started and where most of our initial customers and founders are. It's also a growing tech hub with lots of startups that need the kind of talent and solutions we provide, so it makes sense to stay here.
