Aindez was born at the intersection of technology, data and a deep understanding of work in Latin America. Today we want to tell you who is behind this vision.

Martín Padulla

Martín is an Argentine sociologist with more than 25 years of experience in staffing and workforce solutions. He is the founder of staffingamericalatina.com, has advised governments, multilateral organizations and industry associations, and is an international speaker and author.

Staffing Industry Analysts recognized him as one of the 25 leaders of Latin America. His career let him see up close the barriers companies face in managing their people efficiently.

Manuel Vallejos

Manuel is a Chilean engineer, tech entrepreneur and CEO of Aindez. He was CTO of a staffing agency with operations in Chile, Peru and Colombia, where he led the development of solutions used by more than 200,000 users.

From the technology trenches he lived the operational challenges of organizations that must scale hiring, management and retention of talent. That experience drove him to build a smarter, more flexible and more connected solution.

Two complementary perspectives

From Chile and Argentina, we combine Martín's strategic and global perspective with Manuel's technology and execution experience.

With Aindez we are building a people-centered AI platform: it automates repetitive tasks, brings fragmented data together and lets you decide with evidence. We connect the processes of the whole talent acquisition and management cycle, with the complexity specific to workforce solutions in Latin America.

We were selected for the Start-Up Chile BIG 9 program and started the acceleration in April. It is a key milestone for our growth in the region.
