When I started my first company back in 2012, my co-founder Phillipe and I pitched investors on this clever idea: We are going to have our HQ in New York, but we are going to host our dev team in Costa Rica, where we are originally from.

I remember that the idea to have a remote team like that raised a few eyebrows. We didn't end up raising money for that company, not just because of that, but mistakes were made overall. But why shouldn’t we be able to work with people in other countries? Why let location stop us from hiring who we want?
