Why IC hires need a specialist

A senior IC can shape your product for years.

The Staff Engineer sets the architecture, the Founding AE develops the sales playbook, and the Forward Deployed Engineer ensures your key clients get the solutions they need. Our dedicated IC team have spent years understanding the problems and impact a strong Senior hire can have meaning they know where to find the right specialist for your team.

How we find and assess them

We start from the problem the hire needs to solve then go straight to identifying and speaking to candidates across engineering, product and go-to-market.

Every candidate is assessed in depth before they reach you, and each one arrives with full context: why they fit, why they are interested in you, what would make them move, and what they'll expect in an offer.
