Torc.dev is a software staffing company founded in 2021 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. It connects developers, particularly from Latin America, with enterprise clients seeking digital and software engineering talent. The company was acquired by Randstad Digital, a division of the Randstad Group, in 2024.[1]
History
[edit]Torc.dev was launched in 2021 by Mike Morris and Dave Messinger, with a focus on matching skilled software developers from Latin America with businesses based primarily in the United States. The platform applies skill-based assessments and structured screening methods to identify candidates for roles across software engineering disciplines.[2]
In December 2023, Randstad Digital announced its intent to acquire Torc.dev, completing the acquisition in May 2024. The acquisition aimed to expand Randstad's footprint in digital talent solutions and AI-powered recruitment.[3]
