Coorva

Coorva is a Buenos Aires-based talent placement and staffing firm operating for nine years. The company specializes in connecting software engineers, designers, and DevOps professionals with companies needing to scale their teams or fill specific roles. Rather than acting as a traditional body shop, Coorva frames itself around "Engineers Screening Engineers"—its recruiters have technical backgrounds and conduct their own vetting alongside soft-skills assessment. The firm has staffed 250+ positions with a 4% cancellation rate and 1% turnover among placed talent.

Services and capabilities

Coorva offers two main engagement models: staff augmentation (temporary or project-based team expansion) and direct hire (permanent placement). Within each, they provide three tiers of recruiting—Express, Pro, and Premium—varying in turnaround time, screening depth, and upfront cost. Express delivers shortlists in up to 5 business days for $199; Pro takes 2–3 weeks with 80%+ skills coverage for $999; Premium takes 4–6 weeks with 90%+ coverage for $1,499. All tiers include a 60-day replacement guarantee for direct hires.

The company's vetting process involves application review, a standard interview assessing technical preferences and background, an English assessment, a one-hour technical interview with a 10-minute live coding test, and (for some roles) an 8-hour take-home coding challenge. The firm's "Coorva Gravity" methodology pairs candidate screening with what it calls "service delivery"—ongoing support from account managers who monitor team fit, handle communication between client and contractor, provide time-tracking reports, and manage attrition risk.

Most requested roles include AI engineers, backend developers, frontend developers, mobile engineers, full-stack developers, QA engineers, UX/UI designers, DevOps engineers, and project managers. The firm works across industries including IoT, healthcare, AI, construction, video streaming, and social media platforms.

Notable work

Coorva's case study portfolio includes work with Datateer (portal-based web development for invoice approval and vendor management), Attune (DevOps and front-end developers plus an IoT forecasting MVP), HITN (team augmentation across multiple roles), Edenor (computer vision and AI engineers for infrastructure mapping), TUYA (Android code modernization), and Revolve (full-stack and QA engineers to accelerate MVP and funding). One client testimonial from Amos Patrick (CTO, VIVED) describes a multi-month engagement where Coorva developers helped architect a microservice backend and new front end from the ground up. Another, from Tom Filippini (CEO, FlightLink), highlights a transition scenario where Coorva took over feature development from an initial Denver-based shop, maintaining transparency around feasibility and timelines.

How they work

Engagements typically start with a shortlist delivery within the chosen timeframe (5 business days to 6 weeks depending on tier). Coorva handles candidate sourcing, LinkedIn campaigns, interview scheduling, and onboarding support. Time tracking and communication are managed by the Service Delivery team, which monitors cultural fit and project alignment. All hiring solutions include a 60-day replacement guarantee. The firm also offers a "risk-free trial week" to evaluate fit before committing. Pricing for hiring itself is upfront ($199–$1,499 depending on tier), then deducted from invoices for subsequent engagement or retained hire.

Team and credentials

Coorva has been in business for nine years. Team size is not disclosed in the source material. The company names six staff members on its public site (ranging from full-stack developers to senior engineers and QA automation specialists), all based in Argentina. No third-party certifications (ISO, SOC 2, G2, or Clutch ratings) are mentioned in the source. The firm emphasizes that recruiters have engineering backgrounds and conduct technical screening directly, rather than outsourcing vetting to non-technical staff.
