Security and cash-management services for Latin American enterprises
HERMES Perú operates a security and logistics business built on legacy Oracle Forms infrastructure, now actively modernizing toward microservices while scaling operations significantly (36 roles posted in the last 30 days, 60 open). The hiring velocity is concentrated in ops and security roles, with engineering at 5 headcount—a gap that aligns with their stated pain around legacy application modernization, monolithic decomposition, and application security validation. Tech stack is thin: Oracle, Java, Spring, WebLogic, Android for mobile—no cloud platforms or modern observability tools visible, indicating infrastructure constraints typical of organizations mid-transformation.
HERMES Perú is a privately held security and outsourcing firm founded in 1985, operating across Peru with 1,001–5,000 employees. The company provides armored transport and cash custody, payment channel management, multibanco agency services, courier operations, mining security, cash administration, and business process outsourcing. Revenue and customer base are not disclosed. The service mix is mature and operationally intensive, requiring fleet maintenance, compliance controls, and consistent loss prevention. Leadership, marketing, and legal staffing are thin relative to ops and security, reflecting a operations-first culture.
