The questions your
data scientist takes off your desk

Data scientist presenting analysis to teammates
Turns data into decisions
Reports to your leads

Companies hire a data scientist from Deverr when the reporting is solid, and the decisions need real evidence behind them.

They join your team directly, in your warehouse and your notebooks, and we employ them in their own country, so payroll, taxes, and compliance are handled without you opening a local entity.

What we check before a
data scientist reaches your shortlist

Vetting process illustration
Soft skills icon

The soft skills bar

Problem-solving, communication, planning, cross-functional collaboration, attention to detail, multitasking, and continuous learning, expected at every seniority level.

Where the screening energy goes illustration

Experiment and causal rigor

We check that a candidate has designed real A/B tests and causal analyses and knows when a result is signal versus noise.

Technical grounding icon

Technical grounding, in their own words

We ask what tools, languages, and methods a candidate uses day to day and how.

Communication vetting icon

From analysis to recommendation

We look for scientists who turn a messy question into a clear recommendation a non-technical team can act on.

We needed a senior full-stack developer fast. Deverr placed someone in under two weeks who was shipping code by day three. Six months later he's one of our core team members.

We couldn't be happier with the full-stack, AI, and WordPress developers Deverr found for us. They saved us a ton of time recruiting and brought in highly experienced developers who fit our culture perfectly, at a fraction of what we'd pay for U.S. developers of the same skill level. 5 stars, I can't recommend them enough.

Alvis.Care started as my garage project, built on Lovable, held together by vision and duct tape. Within a month of bringing on Deverr, they placed Allan as our lead engineer and our code was professionalized and stabilized. Allan took ownership of the team and gave me back time to sell the vision. If you built something real and need it to become a company, this is how you do it.

Costs 30 to 50% less than the same hire in the US

No juniors on this bench illustration

Every data scientist we place has done this work somewhere it counted, so you are not funding someone's training.

Matched to the warehouse you already run illustration

Candidates are assessed against your actual warehouse, tooling, and role requirements.

In your standups not a time zone away illustration

In your standups, not a time zone away

A nearshore hire works US hours, so a question gets asked and answered inside the same working day instead of waiting overnight.

One person owns the number end to end illustration

The same data scientist frames the question, pulls the data, runs the analysis, and presents the result to whoever has to act on it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Data scientist FAQs illustration
How fast can you place a data scientist?

Most placements run one to two weeks from first call to first day, covering sourcing, vetting, interviews, and onboarding. Flag an urgent role on the call and we prioritize it.

What is the difference between a data scientist and a data engineer?

A data engineer builds and maintains the pipelines that land your data. A data scientist works on what that data means, running the analysis and the experiments the business decides on. Teams with unreliable data usually need the engineer first.

Can I hire a remote data scientist without a local entity?

Yes. We handle payroll, taxes, benefits, and compliance in every LatAm country we place in, so you do not need an entity of your own.

Can a data scientist take on our AI work?

Some of it, yes. A data scientist can build and validate the models behind a feature, including scoring, recommendation, and forecasting work. If you need LLM or generative features shipped, that is an AI engineer, and if you need an existing model served and retrained reliably, that is a machine learning engineer. Describe the outcome on the call and we will tell you which of the three to hire.

Which tools do your data scientists work in?

Common ground includes Python, SQL, pandas, scikit-learn, dbt, Snowflake, and Looker. We match against your real stack.
