Our approach
We close roles fast. With only the candidates worth your time.
Fast Shortlist
Typically 5–10 pre-vetted senior candidates per role. No noise. Your team spends time evaluating — not filtering.
Only Relevant Candidates
Every candidate we send matches the role, the seniority, and the culture. We qualify hard so you don't have to.
Risk Mitigation
68% of our clients come back. Because the first hire worked. And the second. We protect your decision, not just your pipeline.
Our expertise
We fill the roles others can't.
Senior Engineers, Tech Leads, Architects, CTOs, Founding Engineers, Senior-level Managers.
94.6%
of our candidates pass probation
82%
of roles we fill were labeled "impossible to close"
4–6 weeks
average time-to-hire
We don't send a stack of CVs. We send one shortlist — the right one. Typically 5–10 pre-vetted senior candidates for hard-to-fill tech roles, so your team evaluates, not filters. Our retained executive search covers senior engineer recruitment, CTO search, and every critical technical hire in between.
