Engineering expertise. Startup mindset. Founder-first process.
I’ve worked closely with product delivery and engineering teams, so I recruit with a builder’s perspective. I understand how engineers think, how technical teams operate, and what actually predicts success in engineering roles beyond a resume keyword match.
That translates to stronger shortlists, faster hiring, and higher-quality engineering talent for founders who need reliability and clarity in their recruiting partner.
