OUR APPROACH

We dont just fill roles. We build gravity around your brand.

Talent is only half the equation. Most agencies forward CVs and disappear. We surround every search with community and media — energizing events, an in-house podcast studio, and a talent network we’ve built over 15 years.

That’s how we reach the people who aren’t looking, tell your story in a way that lands, and why the best strategy, product, and design talent comes to us first.

QUESTIONS

We’re a recruiting partner at the intersection of talent, community, and media. We place talent across strategy, product, design, engineering, and frontier research & AI — from senior specialists to leadership — and wrap every search in the events, podcasts, and network that make your brand magnetic to the best people.
Most agencies forward CVs and disappear after the fee. We vet every candidate over video or in person, we have boots on the ground and a live community, and we stay engaged for the long term. Our clients work with us on an ongoing basis because we build the talent brand, not just the shortlist.
Six areas: strategy, product, design, AI & transformation, engineering, and frontier research & AI — from senior individual contributors to directors, VPs, and executive leadership. That spans everything from a founding engineer or design lead to a research scientist building world models, or a CTO scaling the team. If it’s a role that shapes what a company builds next, it’s in our wheelhouse.
Yes. Alongside product, design, and strategy, we hire traditional engineering — full-stack, mobile, infrastructure, and engineering leadership — and frontier research & AI: research scientists and engineers, machine learning, computer vision and spatial intelligence, foundation and world models, and the research infrastructure behind them. These are among the hardest roles to fill, and they’re a core part of what we do.
Startups, agencies, and corporates — the ambitious teams building at the frontier of their category, wherever the best people are.
Three ways to work with us: retained and executive search for your most critical hires, contingent search when you need to move fast with no upfront risk, and contract hiring for flexible, on-demand talent. We’ll recommend the right fit on a call.
We recruit across the US, Canada, and the UK, with an office in New York. Most of our clients hire in New York and San Francisco.
