Testimonials
Trusted by teams that hire with us
-
LATAM has been a gold mine for talent. Our CloudTask hires understand our company culture and mission, and they connect with our customers in a way that drives high NPS and CX scores.
David Barrett CEO, Expensify -
At first we were an SF-based team only. Then I met Amir Reiter back in 2018. After visiting Medellín, I knew LATAM would be key to our growth and success.
Tim Zheng CEO, Apollo.io -
After meeting my CX and CS team in Medellín, we immediately loved the culture and the work ethic. As a European-HQ company, we found LATAM to be perfect to service our American clients.

SKILLS
Top skills to look for in a React developer
Knowing JSX is the entry ticket. These are the skills that decide whether your interface stays fast, accessible and easy to change a year from now.
-
State that has one home
Separates server state from client state and can explain where each piece of data lives, instead of copying it into three stores.
-
Effects used sparingly
Reaches for useEffect only to sync with something outside React, with honest dependency arrays instead of a silenced linter.
-
TypeScript that helps
Typed props, discriminated unions and typed hooks that catch mistakes at build time, not an any on every other line.
-
Performance from measurement
Route-level splitting, lazy loading and bundle analysis driven by Core Web Vitals from real sessions, not a guess.
-
Accessibility by default
Real buttons, labeled inputs, focus that moves correctly in modals, and a check with a screen reader before release.
-
A rendering strategy on purpose
Chooses between client rendering, server rendering and static generation per page, and can say why for each one.
-
Tests on behavior
Tests what the user sees and does, so a refactor does not break fifty tests that only checked implementation details.
-
AI output, reviewed
Uses coding assistants for scaffolding and first drafts, and reads every line that touches the render path before it merges.
HIRING GUIDE
How to hire React developers
A React hire lives or dies on judgment that a portfolio does not show: where state lives, how pages render and what happens to the interface after five people have touched it. This guide covers what a React developer does, what to test, the red flags and when a dedicated React developer is the wrong hire.
What does a React developer do?
Builds and maintains the interface of your product in React: components, forms, navigation, data fetching and the state that ties them together. On most teams they also own the design system in code and the performance of what reaches the browser.
Day to day that means turning designs into components, wiring them to your APIs, reviewing pull requests and fixing what breaks for users on slow devices and assistive technology.
React, Next.js or full stack: which do you need?
Hire a React developer when the hard part is the interface: complex forms, dashboards, real-time views or a design system many teams share. Hire someone with Next.js depth when routing, server rendering and SEO are part of the job.
If you need one person to ship complete features across the API and the database too, you are hiring full stack, and you should check the backend depth separately.
State management: where most React codebases go wrong
State usually starts in local component state, moves to Context when passing props hurts, then to a store when Context re-renders too much. Each rewrite touches every component.
A strong candidate separates server state, which a data-fetching library caches for you, from client state such as filters and open panels, and can explain where each belongs in your app.
Rendering and performance
Client rendering, server rendering, static generation and streaming each fit different pages. Ask the candidate which one your main pages need and why, and what they would load lazily.
Then ask how they found the last performance problem they fixed. You want to hear about a measurement, a bundle report or a trace, and a before and after.
What to test in a React developer interview
Give a small task close to your real work: a form that loads data, validates input and handles a failed request. Read how they structure state, name components and handle the error and loading paths.
Then open a component with a noisy useEffect or a prop drilled through five levels and ask what they would change first. A strong answer changes one thing, explains the trade-off and mentions tests.
Red flags in React developer candidates
The same data in three places. If their interview task keeps a copy of the server response in local state, in Context and in a store, expect synchronization bugs in your app.
useEffect for everything. A candidate who fetches, derives values and syncs props inside effects, and silences the dependency warning, will ship stale data and double requests.
Divs that act as buttons. If keyboard and screen reader users never come up, accessibility will only arrive after a customer asks for it.
Performance by habit. Wrapping everything in memoization with no measurement before or after is guesswork, and it makes the code harder to read.
Generated code they cannot explain. Ask them to walk through a component they built with an AI assistant. If they cannot say why it renders what it does, nobody has reviewed it.
When should you not hire a dedicated React developer?
When your front end is a marketing site or a few static pages that a site builder or a CMS covers. A full-time React developer will not have enough to do.
It is also the wrong hire when nobody on your side can review code or set priorities. A single developer with no technical lead and no product owner tends to build what is interesting instead of what the business needs.
How much does it cost to hire a React developer?
It depends on seniority, the scope of the work and the country the person works from, and any single number describes one scenario and calls it a price.
What is worth understanding is the shape. On Managed Staffing it is one all-in monthly rate per person, with payments, compliance and replacement cover inside it. On Direct Hire it is a one-time fee of 20% to 30% of first-year base salary and the person goes on your payroll. We quote your number before you interview anyone.
Why hire a React developer in Latin America?
Overlap. Development runs on code review, standups and incidents, and Latin America and the Caribbean share most of the US working day, so those happen in real time instead of overnight.
The second reason is communication. Your developer writes pull request descriptions, technical notes and status updates in English, and we screen English live on a call.
How does CloudTask hire for this role?
You send the React version and framework you run, the backend it talks to, the kind of work and the hours you need covered. We source against that brief and come back with 3 to 5 matched profiles within 48 hours, each one screened on a live call and checked against the stack you named.
You interview and choose. On Managed Staffing we handle payments, compliance and onboarding and stay involved with check-ins. On Direct Hire the person joins your payroll from day one. Both carry a replacement guarantee: 24 months on Managed Staffing, 6 months on Direct Hire.
