Why Work With Us
We Already Know Your Business
If we've worked through the Plan stage together, we understand your workflows, your culture, and what you're trying to build. We're not starting from a job spec. We're finding someone who fits how you actually work.
Better Matches, Less Churn
We find people who actually want permanent roles. Not contractors looking for their next gig. When someone starts with the intention of staying, onboarding goes smoother and retention follows.
We Know What Good Looks Like
Our founder has managed AI teams and shipped products to production. We know how good developers behave, collaborate, and fit into teams. Culture and attitude matter as much as code.
Lower Risk for You
See them work before you commit. If it's not the right fit, you part ways cleanly. No awkward probation conversations. No wasted permanent hire fees.
