Permanent Hiring

We don’t send resumes.
We send finalists. Fast.

We source and screen engineers who match your role, so you only spend time with strong candidates. No upfront fees. You only pay when you make a successful hire, backed by a 60-day replacement guarantee.

The problem

Hiring engineers shouldn’t become your second job.

Sourcing, screening, scheduling interviews, chasing feedback, and sorting through applications all take time away from the work your team is actually trying to move forward.

And after all that effort, you can still end up with a pile of resumes instead of candidates worth meeting.

Too much noise.

Hundreds of applications don’t make hiring easier when most of them were never right for the role.

Too much time.

Every hour spent sourcing and screening is time your founders and engineering leaders aren’t spending on the product or the team.

Too much risk.

A bad engineering hire costs more than recruiting fees. It costs time, momentum, and another hiring cycle.

How it works

From open role to strong finalists — without the hiring grind.

You tell us what the role needs. We handle the sourcing, screening, and early-stage evaluation, then bring you candidates worth spending time with.

  1. 01

    Tell us who you need.

    Share the role, experience level, stack, team context, and what success looks like. We use that to define the search before sourcing begins.

  2. 02

    We source and screen.

    We find engineers who match the role and handle the early screening so weak-fit candidates never reach your calendar.

  3. 03

    You meet finalists.

    Instead of a pile of resumes, you meet a focused shortlist of engineers we believe are worth your time.

  4. 04

    You make the hire.

    You run your final interviews and choose the candidate you want to bring onto your team. You only pay when you make a successful hire.

Engineering Vetting

Technical hiring should be evaluated technically.

Before a candidate reaches your calendar, we look beyond the resume. We evaluate their experience, communication, technical ability, and how they think through real engineering problems.

  1. Candidate profile review

    Profile Review

    We review relevant experience, technical background, role fit, and career history before moving a candidate forward.

  2. Candidate communication screening

    Communication Screen

    Strong engineering requires clear communication. We assess how candidates explain their experience, decisions, and technical work.

  3. Technical engineering assessment

    Technical Assessment

    Candidates are evaluated on practical technical ability relevant to the role — not just keywords or credentials.

  4. Technical interview

    Technical Interview

    We go deeper into engineering judgment, problem-solving, trade-offs, and how the candidate approaches real technical challenges.

  5. Final candidate shortlist

    Final Shortlist

    Only candidates who make it through our evaluation reach you. You spend your time with finalists, not a pile of applicants.
