Why CloudTask / About us
Since 2016 we have placed more than 10,000 people from Latin America and the Caribbean with companies in the United States. We measure ourselves on who stays.
TRUSTED BY TEAMS WHOSE CLOUDTASK HIRES HAVE STAYED 5 TO 8 YEARS
Most hiring advice is about speed. Speed is not your problem. Your problem is that the person leaves at month 5 and you pay for the search twice.
We built CloudTask around the part nobody measures. We screen for tenure, we carry the layer underneath the hire, and we stand behind the placement.
You manage the work. We keep the seat filled.
Why we exist
What we do today, and where we want it to go.
CloudTask builds the most reliable pipeline of talent in Latin America and the Caribbean for companies scaling in the United States. We place people who stay, across sales, customer success, operations, back office, marketing and engineering.
To be the first name a growing company thinks of when it hires from Latin America. Opportunity should travel as freely as skill. In 10 years, hiring across the region should be as ordinary as hiring across a state line. Where a person lives should not decide the career they can build.
Our story
CloudTask started in 2016 and the operating base was Medellín, Colombia. An advisor brought Amir to Colombia. A conversation with Daniel Agudelo, then working at a hotel and now VP of Global Talent at CloudTask, made the gap obvious. English speaking professionals in Medellín and Bogotá were performing at the level Amir associated with San Francisco sales teams, and no United States company was looking for them.
The problem was not supply. Companies could find people. They could not keep them. A hire left at month 5 and the founder paid the search cost twice. CloudTask was built around that gap. The earliest documented placement is a cohort of 5 customer success professionals in 2016. One of the 5 was Dave Menjura, now CloudTask's Chief Revenue Officer.
How we got here
Medellín. Amir chose the city for its universities, its push toward bilingualism, returning talent who grew up in the United States, and overlap with the East Coast for 6 months of the year and Chicago for the other 6.
Building and running full sales, customer success and revenue operations teams for companies scaling in the United States. That business reached roughly 265 people, with Inc. 5000 recognition along the way.
Amir dismantled a working outsourced sales business because buyers did not know what they were buying and the category was promising results nobody could deliver. What replaced it was a vetted talent network and 2 clear ways to hire from it.
The founding team moved to Medellín. Leading hiring across Latin America at scale means being where the talent is.
