What We Do:
We partner with seed- to growth-stage tech companies to hire top talent and build recruiting functions that actually work. Beyond filling hard-to-hire roles, we collaborate with founders and hiring managers on their most pressing needs. Often that means advising on the minimum viable recruiting function — the right systems for candidate experience, employer brand, and speed, without over-engineering.
From your first engineer to your next VP, we deliver high-caliber candidates while building the foundation to scale. ATS setup, sourcing pipelines, interviewer training, employer branding — we help startups hire like top-tier tech companies from day one.
Why We Do It:
We’re startup builders at heart. We love working with top operators, solving complex problems, and having a real impact.For us, recruiting is people-first: creating the best candidate experience while acting as trusted advisors to founders and hiring teams.
We’re energized by strategy, creativity, and efficiency — and nothing pains us more than a clunky, manual hiring process. We’d rather work fast, keep the bar high, and build recruiting functions that actually make founders’ lives easier. No politics, no fluff — just smart problem-solving and a good dose of humor along the way.
