Technical recruitment service

AI Talent Sourced by People Who Build AI

We built these systems ourselves, so our recruitment service is run by technical co-founders—not account reps. Every intro is mission-first: we pair elite builders with your company after interviewing them to guarantee they can advance your mission.

  • Deep technical interviews led by co-founders who have shipped the same agentic systems.
  • We take time to understand your product, stack, and mission before introducing talent.
  • AI builders join you full-time or contract-to-hire to execute your roadmap with mission-level context.

We place technical operators in companies they love so they bring momentum, ownership, and context from day one.

Operator-builders want to solve real world problems because they love what they do — we exist to pair that passion with the missions that need it most.

Talent specializations we vet

We’re not a software house — these are the operator-builders our recruitment service embeds inside your org.

Agentic workflow leads

Operator-builders who design and maintain multi-step reasoning systems inside your product, not as an outsourced project.

Systems integration talent

People who can sit with your team and wire APIs, webhooks, and internal tools because they’ve done it in production before.

RAG + data specialists

Talent fluent in embeddings, Pinecone, Postgres hybrid search, and retrieval guardrails — ready to own your data layer.

Automation & infra operators

Technical recruitment service

Technical operators for ambitious companies.

Operator-builders that will level up your business because we stay close to the product, the customers, and the mission before we ever suggest a name.

We want to place technical co-founders-at-heart in companies they love. We want to understand products & businesses and give them the right talent — not tick the box talent. Operator-builders want to solve real world problems; they love what they do. It's for the love the game, the passion for building. We aren't a software house; we're the technical recruitment bridge that makes sure the right humans join your team.

We Match People to Missions, Not Job Specs

A job description tells you the tasks.

A mission tells you the purpose.

We pair humans to missions where they come alive — not to bullet points.

We take time to understand the product, the business, the mission and match talent who can have real impact — not "good on paper," but right for the reality.

Technical leadership embedded

We translate your mission into architecture because we’ve built the same multi-agent and RAG systems ourselves.

Mission-fit placements

We place operator-builders in companies they love so they stay close to the purpose and carry momentum into every sprint.

Love of the craft

Technical operators want to solve real world problems; they love what they do and it’s for the love the game — the passion for building.
