Deeptech Recruitment
Engineering and go-to-market teams for deeptech, AI, quantum, enterprise software, and cybersecurity companies scaling into the US and Europe.
We hire the people who build hard technology and the people who sell it — from a company's first engineer or first in-region seller to a full team on both sides of the Atlantic.

Where we go deep
AI & Machine Learning
Foundation model, applied AI, MLOps and data infrastructure companies. Engineers who have trained, evaluated and deployed models in production — not just called an API — and commercial people who can explain what the model actually does to a buyer who will check. Learn more →
Enterprise Software & Infrastructure
Developer tools, cloud and data infrastructure, observability, and platforms sold to large organizations. Distributed-systems and platform engineers and enterprise sellers who can run a long, multi-stakeholder deal with a technical evaluation at its center. Learn more →
Cybersecurity
Security vendors selling to CISOs and security teams, direct and through channel. Security researchers and engineers on the build side; sellers, sales engineers and channel people on the market side. Learn more →
Hard Tech & Advanced Engineering
Semiconductors, photonics, robotics, autonomy, space, quantum, advanced materials, and industrial systems. Small, specialized talent pools where the right candidate is often one of a handful in a country — and where commercial hires need to understand the physics as well as the pipeline. Learn more →

Where we hire
Our focus is the United States and Europe, and the two halves of the team usually sit in different places.
Go-to-market hiring follows the customer: the US, the UK and Ireland, DACH, France, Benelux, Iberia, the Mediterranean, and the Nordics. Engineering hiring follows the talent: Israel, the UK, DACH, and Central and Eastern Europe — Hungary, Poland, and Romania in particular, where we have recruited engineers for more than two decades and where strong technical talent is still easier to reach than in the most crowded Western hubs.
Who we work with
Founders and leadership teams at venture-backed deeptech companies that have proved the technology and now need to build the team that ships it and sells it — usually after a Series A, often while opening a first office outside the home country.
Venture investors backing several deeptech companies that are all hiring from the same small pools at the same time. One accountable talent function across the portfolio beats every founder briefing a different agency. Learn more →
In-house talent teams who need to reach into a specialist pool, a language, or a market they do not cover today.
We are less useful for high-volume junior hiring. This is a search practice, not a volume desk.
How we work
AI-enhanced, but human-first. We use AI to map markets and surface candidates far faster than a manual search could. Experienced researchers and recruiters then own every shortlist and every conversation in it. You get a considered list of people, not a scraped one.
Recruiters who understand the work. We screen engineers on what they have actually built and shipped, and commercial people on whether they can hold a technical conversation — not on keywords.
Recruiters on the ground. Our researchers and recruiters are multilingual search professionals based in the countries where we hire. They interview candidates in the language they will actually work in, and they know which names on a resume are real credibility and which are inherited.
Sourcing beyond LinkedIn. We keep our own country-by-country candidate databases and a referral network built since 1999. In deeptech, where the best people are rarely looking, that network is most of the job.
An honest read before you commit. Tell us the role, the market, and the budget, and we will tell you what the talent pool actually looks like — including when the role as written is not fillable at that number.
We can employ them, too. Found the right engineer in Budapest, Warsaw, or Bucharest, but have no entity there? Our Employer of Record service employs your new hire compliantly through our own licensed entities in roughly 17 countries, so the offer does not lapse while you incorporate. Learn more →
