Celara Labs builds high-performance AI teams for companies ready to execute. We specialize in recruiting and embedding senior AI, ML, and product engineers into organizations that already have clear direction and momentum. Headquartered in the Washington DC / Tysons area with a delivery center in Latin America, we partner with venture-backed startups, mid-market companies, and enterprise clients to accelerate AI initiatives from strategy to production.
We are not a traditional agency. Our model combines the flexibility of nearshore talent with a Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) structure and hands-on guidance from experienced AI leaders. This allows our clients to move faster, reduce execution risk, and build durable AI capabilities—while maintaining full ownership of their roadmap, systems, and IP.
Our leadership team brings decades of experience across technology, venture capital, and product development. Several of our partners have sat on the “buyer side” as startup executives and investors. We understand the urgency
How we work:
1. Embedded High-Skill AI Talent
We recruit and place senior AI engineers, ML scientists, data engineers, and technical product leaders who embed directly into client teams. These professionals don’t operate as an external lab—they work inside your workflows, tools, and culture to deliver real outcomes.
Typical focus areas include:
Production-grade LLM and RAG systems
Predictive modeling and forecasting
AI agents and automation for operations and customer engagement
Data infrastructure and ML pipelines
2. Build–Operate–Transfer (BOT) AI Teams
For companies scaling AI capabilities, we offer a structured BOT model:
Build
We recruit, vet, and assemble custom nearshore AI teams aligned with your technical needs and roadmap.
Operate
Celara supports delivery, technical leadership, and integration with your internal teams to ensure momentum and quality.
Transfer
When ready, teams transition fully in-house, preserving continuity, knowledge, and IP ownership.
