The Story

‍Greta Bell, Director of Technology at Academic Impressions, found that domestic hiring often forced a trade-off between technical skill and culture fit. To scale her team effectively, she needed more than just "coders"—she needed senior talent who would champion collaboration and long-term stability. By partnering with Revelo, she secured engineers who elevated the team’s documentation and cross-training standards while integrating seamlessly into their mission.

The Vision/Challenge

‍Finding high-quality engineering support domestically was a growing hurdle for Academic Impressions. Greta’s challenge was to find professionals who possessed both the technical depth to contribute immediately and the mindset to improve the team's internal processes. She needed a way to bypass the competitive US market to find senior talent that prioritized the collective success of the engineering organization.

The Revelo Partnership

‍Academic Impressions utilized Revelo to bridge the gap between their need for specialized skills and their high standards for culture fit. By tapping into Revelo’s network of 400,000+ vetted engineers, Greta found LatAm-based talent that provides time-zone alignment and high-level ownership. These nearshore engineers work directly for Academic Impressions, and because Revelo handles the payroll and compliance, Greta’s team remained focused on improving their product and internal collaboration.
