A simple, repeatable process
Align
Lock the brief: must-haves vs nice-to-haves, budget, the problems to be solved. Sanity-check your interview process. Why would in-demand talent choose you?
Build
Outline the search plan: target companies and sectors, messaging, screening criteria. Define what you need from candidates and what they need from you.
Connect
Targeted outreach to candidates who fit the brief. Detailed candidate submissions with context. Market feedback on salary expectations and competitive positioning.
I help you scale your engineering teams with an efficient, equitable process where the candidate experience is excellent and your problem is solved without fuss. As a solo founder, there's nowhere to hide if I make a bad match; this focuses the mind brilliantly.
