Companies in Sao Paulo, Brazil that want to employ engineering talent in India without opening a local entity can use Pitch N Hire as their Employer of Record. PNH legally employs each hire on your behalf and manages payroll, tax, benefits and statutory compliance, so a Sao Paulo business can build a compliant offshore team quickly and focus on the work rather than the paperwork.
An Employer of Record (EOR) is a company that legally employs workers on your behalf in a country where you have no entity, taking on payroll, tax withholding, benefits, contracts and statutory compliance while the worker delivers under your day-to-day direction. Pitch N Hire's EOR strength is India: it lets a business anywhere hire and retain Indian engineering talent compliantly — with correct employment contracts, payroll and provident-fund/tax handling — without registering an Indian subsidiary. This removes the cost, delay and legal risk of setting up a foreign entity, and pairs naturally with staff augmentation when you want PNH to both source and employ your offshore team.
You identify the person you want to employ in India — either someone Pitch N Hire sourced for you, or a candidate you found yourself who you want employed compliantly.
PNH issues a locally-compliant Indian employment contract with the correct terms, benefits and statutory entitlements, so the engagement is legally sound from day one.
The employee is onboarded onto PNH's Indian payroll, with tax, provident fund and benefits configured correctly — no Indian entity or local finance function needed on your side.
The employee works under your day-to-day direction, in your tools and process, while PNH remains the legal employer of record for compliance purposes.
PNH runs monthly payroll, tax filings, statutory contributions and HR administration, and keeps everything compliant as regulations change — you get a report, not a paperwork burden.
As your Employer of Record in India, Pitch N Hire takes on the full employment burden:
Sao Paulo is the financial and technology capital of Latin America, concentrating the region's largest cluster of fintechs, banks, scale-ups and global engineering offices. It is where most Brazilian unicorns are headquartered, from digital banking to e-commerce and enterprise SaaS. Demand for backend, data, cloud and platform engineers is intense and salaries are the highest in Brazil, so employers compete on compensation, remote flexibility and speed — making disciplined recruitment and fast, structured screening essential to fill roles.
Sao Paulo's talent pool is the deepest in Brazil and skews senior and product-experienced, with strong fintech, payments and regulated-industry exposure. Common stacks include Java, Node.js/TypeScript, Python, Go and cloud on AWS and GCP, plus growing data-engineering and platform capacity. English is generally solid at senior levels, and the sheer size of the market means a large but hotly contested candidate base that rewards a quick, well-run hiring process.
Sao Paulo commands Brazil's highest developer pay, with senior software engineers frequently in the region of R$180k–R$320k per year, and premiums for data, platform and fintech specialists. Compensation is competitive because global firms and well-funded startups bid for the same senior talent, so employers lean on structured screening and RPO to move quickly, and occasionally add offshore India engineers to control blended cost.
Sao Paulo's own talent depth means local recruitment is usually the priority, but for budget-sensitive or hard-to-fill work PNH can add vetted India-based engineers via staff augmentation and its India-first Employer of Record. Buyers should weigh the wide India-Brazil time gap of roughly 8.5 hours honestly: overlap is limited to a short window, so offshore pods here suit async or specialist workstreams rather than tightly synchronous teams.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Sao Paulo team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
