They are employed, busy and ignoring recruiters. We find them with AI across more than 800 million profiles, and an engineer who has done the job interviews them before you see a CV.

We work with two partners who bring AI into technical recruitment. They give us reach and market data; we bring the technical judgement.
AI agents that search, filter and reach out across a database of more than 800 million profiles, ranked on merit rather than keywords. Built by Nova Talent, whom we already work with.
An agency founded by engineers who worked at Cloudflare, Cabify and Amazon. It searches LinkedIn, GitHub, the open web and technical communities at once, and every finalist is validated by senior engineers.

We use AI where it saves weeks: finding and ranking. The interview and the decision are made by people who can judge real seniority.
Thirty minutes with whoever knows the role. We agree what the person has to deliver in their first 90 days and how we will assess them.
Day 1Agents search LinkedIn, GitHub, the open web and our communities at once. They score what each person has built, not the words on their CV, and we write to the best one by one.
Days 1 to 3A senior engineer interviews every finalist on a real case from your domain. If they don't pass it, they don't reach your inbox.
Before you see a CVOne to three finalists, each with an interview report, salary expectations and availability. You interview and you decide.
First profiles in 72 hNo candidate is rejected by an algorithm without a person reviewing it. AI ranks and suggests; the interview and the decision are human, as the EU AI Act expects for AI used in recruitment.
A keyword filter cannot tell someone who has shipped RAG to production from someone who read about it in a blog post. The interview finds out.

No exclusivity and no upfront payment in either. You are only invoiced when someone is actually working.
The people who write the code that takes AI to production, and the people who keep it running afterwards.
Production code inside the client's business. Closes the gap between the pilot and what people actually use.
Ships LLM features to production: company data, agents, evaluation and cost under control.
Trains and adapts models when calling a large one is not enough: data, fine-tuning and deployment.
Designs the whole platform: data, models, cost, latency and governance.
Keeps the deployment alive once the project team walks away: observability, continuous delivery and cost.
Product engineers, data engineers, tech leads or CTOs. If they build with AI, we find them.
