Founder Mode vs. Manager Mode? Paul Graham’s essay touches a nerve. As a Founder, there’s a drive—an intrinsic passion, a unique vision, a hunger—that can’t be transferred or hired for. This is the essence of the company. It’s like raising a child—you want them to grow independently, but you’ll always be there, influencing their path, nurturing them to become the best version of themselves. Without the founder’s touch, we risk losing a part of the company’s soul. It’s the Founder’s relentless pursuit, the constant shaping of even the smallest details, that keeps that soul alive and thriving. As Nexton continues to grow, I’ve realized that the more we scale, the more essential it becomes to stay close to the heart of our business. And beyond that, my approach is simple: hire people who are smarter than I am, who are just as hungry, and who are completely aligned with our mission. The mix of hands-on leadership, deep involvement, and letting talented people shine is what I believe makes Nexton special. It’s not about micromanaging; it’s about staying close to our purpose—our people, our clients, and our culture. Whether you're a Founder or a Manager, if you want to lead, you have to involve yourself deeply—get your hands dirty, sit on the chair, and get stuff done. That’s how you run a company or team, no matter what mode it’s called. It’s a tough journey, and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. But if there’s one thing I’m sure of, it’s that this blend of passion, vision, and the right team is what drives meaningful impact. That’s the path I’m on—building something that not only makes our clients and team proud but also changes the lives of LATAM engineers. And that’s enough for now.

2025 is coming fast and still, many companies are hesitant about building remote distributed teams, often defaulting to familiar markets like India or Eastern Europe. Missing out on incredible talent in Latin America due to outdated misconceptions and a lack of awareness about the region's potential.

The added pressure of commuting and rigid office demands only further limits access to the best talent.   🔥At Nexton, we see a different future.
