About the show

Great teams aren’t hired by accident.

WHO We Hire is a podcast about the most important decision any company makes: who they let in. Every episode, host Luiz Cent sits down with founders, CEOs, and talent leaders to break down the real hiring calls behind the companies they built, the ones they got right, the ones they would redo, and what they look for now.

The show is sponsored by LatamCent, the nearshore hiring company Luiz founded. We place vetted Latin American talent inside US AI and B2B SaaS teams, so hiring is the work we do every day. On WHO We Hire, we put that experience next to the founders and CEOs who have built great teams, and compare notes on what actually works.

The host

Luiz Cent

Luiz is the founder of LatamCent, a nearshore hiring company that places vetted Latin American talent inside US AI and B2B SaaS teams. He has spent decades in go-to-market and started three companies of his own, and one lesson kept proving itself: you don’t have a what problem, you have a WHO problem.

He spends his days on the front line of hiring, which is exactly why this show exists. No recruiter fluff, no LinkedIn platitudes, just the real conversations behind how great teams actually get built.

Real hiring calls

Not theory. The actual decisions that shaped real companies, the wins and the misfires.

Operators, not gurus

Founders and leaders who live with the consequences of who they hire.

Every other week

New conversations on a steady cadence. Short enough to finish, dense enough to use.

A LatamCent production

Built by people who hire for a living.

LatamCent vets and places Latin American engineers, data and product talent inside US AI and B2B SaaS teams, working in US time zones. We see what separates a great hire from an expensive mistake every week. That's why the conversations on WHO We Hire go deeper than most: the person asking the questions knows hiring from the inside, too.
