From Figma prototypes and Loveable MVPs to real, scalable technology — Startellite connects founders with rigorously vetted engineers across Brazil, backed by full-stack IT infrastructure and operational support.
Engineers versed in
Everything a startup needs to go from prototype to production — without the chaos.
No more generic resumes. Every Satellite passes real technical exams by Sector (Frontend, Backend, Cloud, Security, AI/ML and more), an interview for the Verified Satellite Seal, and proof of Big Tech experience. They also organize into Spaceships — squads led by a commander, ready to take on entire projects.
No ghosting, no negotiation calls. Each Satellite's hourly rate is calculated from proven technical mastery and mission history, and every payment sits in escrow until delivery is validated — protecting both company and Satellite on every mission.
Project marketplace, mission and contract management, exportable PDF portfolios, Spaceships, tech events, and an active community — all on one platform. From hiring to delivery, your company tracks everything without spreadsheets or scattered tools.
Startellite is the ecosystem where startup founders, software engineers, and technical recruiting teams meet. Our platform powers the entire hiring operation: escrow-protected payments, a marketplace to find projects and clients, portfolio and delivered-mission showcasing, full contract and team (Spaceship) management, tech events, learning tracks, and much more. All in one place, with no spreadsheets or scattered tools required.

General admission is free and grants access to the event, but without category identification. To identify as a Satellite, you must register as a Satellite on the platform and pay the Satellite registration fee (Conqueror Satellites don't pay — Free and PRO pay normally). To pitch and identify as a Company, you must pay the Company registration (Orbit and Galaxy companies don't pay). Each registration category gets an identification wristband and, at some events, a specific badge.

Conqueror Satellites get full exemption from registration and the catering fee, including access to the VIP/Networking Area. Orbit/Galaxy companies don't pay for registration — only the USD 6 fee, which covers reservation and catering (waived for Galaxy plan). Students from Insper and Ismart receive 50% off via coupon on the ticketing platform.
