Lundi supports compliant employment in Uruguay — Montevideo concentrates the senior tech talent (dLocal, Globant alumni). Strong fit for high-quality Spanish-language engineering and customer success at lower cost than Argentina without the currency volatility. For broader Latin American scaling we also recommend Colombia or Argentina.
Uruguay has built a notable senior tech sector concentrated in Montevideo — dLocal, Globant alumni, plus growing software engineering serving US and European clients. Political and currency stability is meaningfully better than Argentina, with comparable senior tech quality. Uruguayan peso (UYU) is the local currency. Employer social contributions run ~12.625% above gross. Strong fit for senior Spanish-language engineering, customer success, and product talent serving US East Coast customers. Smaller talent pool than Argentina or Colombia. For broader Latin American scaling Lundi typically also considers Colombia (deeper everything) or Argentina (lower cost with currency risk).
What it costs to employ someone through Lundi.
Lundi's cost is the all-in cost of the employee — gross salary plus statutory employer contributions plus customary benefits — and a Lundi management fee on top. The management fee depends on team size and scope: smaller teams pay a higher per-head rate, teams of 20+ get materially better unit economics, and Build–Operate–Transfer engagements are structured separately.
The alternative paths look like: setting up your own local entity (meaningful months of legal and accounting work, plus ongoing in-country HR, payroll, and compliance infrastructure), engaging a local recruitment agency on contingency (typically a percentage of first-year compensation, paid once, with no ongoing employment relationship), or hiring as a contractor (lower upfront cost, real misclassification risk in most jurisdictions). Lundi is faster than entity setup, structurally different from contingency recruitment, and lower-risk than contractor arrangements.

The notice period must be agreed upon in the employment contract.
Lundi works with companies building teams of 10 or more across business, technical, and operational functions . Not for one-off hires or individual placements.
EOR platforms employ individuals for you. Lundi recruits, employs, and operates concentrated teams — including day-to-day management, HR, and an optional path to your own entity. It's the operating model for companies that have outgrown the EOR ceiling.
