For candidates

A recruiter who gets the work.

Most of the engineers we place weren't looking when we found them. If you're mildly bored and open to the right conversation, we'd rather have it now — quietly, on your terms — than pitch you a role that doesn't fit.

How it works

No spray-and-pray. No spam.

step_01a real conversation

We start with your work, not a job req

What you've owned, what you'd want to do next, what you'd move for. We screen for real signal — which means we can talk to you like an engineer, not read a checklist at you.

step_02only relevant roles

You hear about roles that actually fit

The right stack, the right level, the right kind of team. We don't forward your profile to twelve companies and hope. If it's not a fit, we won't waste your time — or your name.

step_03honest guidance

Straight talk on comp, notice and fit

We'll be upfront about the realistic band before the deep loop, and honest about counteroffer and offer-to-join dynamics — so you can make a clear decision.

step_04through to joined

We stay with you through offer and notice

The stretch where good moves quietly fall apart. We manage it with you so the decision you make is the one that actually happens.

Confidential by default

Your name is yours.

We never send your profile anywhere without your say-so. A conversation with us is exactly that — a conversation. If you're passively open but not actively looking, that's the most common way people work with us.

No profile shared without consent

You approve every company before your name ever reaches them.

Passive-friendly

Not job-hunting? Good — most of the people we place weren't either.

No volume blasts

We reach out about specific roles that fit — not the same email to a thousand inboxes.
