Why This Role Is Hard To Fill

The best software engineer candidates are not on job boards

Strong engineers are passive, well paid, and rarely respond to job postings. That is why a posting-and-waiting search rarely fills a software engineer seat with the right person. Our recruiters source passive software engineer candidates directly, screen them against your specific criteria, and deliver a shortlist of 3 to 5 people, not a stack of resumes.

The Math on Waiting

Every week this seat is open has a cost.

A senior engineer billing at $150,000-$200,000 per year represents $4,000-$7,500 per week in sprint capacity. A vacant seat for 12 weeks means roughly $48,000-$90,000 in unshipped product or absorbed overload - before you factor in the compounding effect on the rest of the team.

The Talent Window

The right candidate is available for a few weeks.

Software engineers and data scientists with in-demand skills receive multiple recruiter outreaches daily. When a strong candidate decides to make a move, they typically have an offer within two weeks. Passive candidates are the best candidates - and they are not responding to job board postings.
