Head of Sales at Teltonika - Remote Buenos Aires — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
This role is currently remote, but the company notes a future transition to a hybrid arrangement in Buenos Aires. This means it may be suitable for location-independent workers in the short term, but long-term stability would require physical presence in Argentina — something to plan around.
Timezone considerations: The role serves the Argentina market (ART, UTC-3), which overlaps well with other South American countries and partially with Western Europe evenings. For nomads based in LATAM, this is an easy fit.
Visa options for digital nomads: Argentina has a popular Digital Nomad Visa ("Nómade Digital") allowing stays of 180 days with the possibility of extension, making it straightforward to base yourself legally in Buenos Aires. Buenos Aires is a well-established nomad hub with affordable cost of living compared to North America or Europe.
- Buenos Aires: Monthly costs ~$1,200–$1,800 USD for a comfortable lifestyle — well-suited if the base salary is competitive.
- Medellín, Colombia: ~$1,000–$1,500/month; possible if working async, but hybrid expectations may require proximity.
- Lisbon, Portugal: ~$2,000–$2,800/month; likely too far given the Buenos Aires team-building mandate.
The $35 USD internet/phone stipend is minimal but appreciated. No coworking allowance is mentioned. Given the team-leadership nature of this role, significant travel is unlikely but regional client visits could arise in LATAM.
