The local market
AI Engineering & freelance work in Chile
Chile’s freelance and remote-work market in 2026 is supported by a sizable digital talent pool, with employers highlighting local strengths in software development, data work, project management, sales, and other IT-related roles. Recent hiring guides also describe Chile as a source of remote workers for international companies, especially U.S. firms, because the country’s time zone and skilled workforce make cross-border hiring practical. Remote-job and freelancer marketplaces continue to list Chile-based opportunities and freelancers, while guidance for digital nomads notes that Chile still does not have a specific digital nomad visa, so remote work is generally handled through other visa pathways.
