Tech companies are increasingly turning to Latin America for developer talent, particularly in training large language models (LLMs). Revelo, with a vast network of over 400,000 developers, reports a surge in demand as U.S. firms seek experts in coding languages to enhance their AI capabilities. The focus on post-training AI development has accounted for over 22% of Revelo's revenue in 2024, signaling a wider trend in the tech industry as companies adapt to shifting workforce requirements.
"There's a race for data, and especially expert human data, that can actually help LLMs be better at very specific high-value tasks," Mendes said.
"Coding is one of those tasks. And what happened last year is that we saw a surge in demand from [companies] building foundational models that are looking for engineers that can be effective experts and that can provide that human data to help their LLM code better."
