Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the things that come up most
before we start working together.

Are you a retained search firm or contingency?

We run every engagement with retained-search rigor, delivered on a contingency model. Our process is disciplined and senior-led, and we only earn our fee when we deliver the right hire—aligning incentives around outcomes.

What types of roles do you specialize in?

Executive leadership, Board and advisory roles, senior technical leaders, and full team build-outs across engineering, product, operations, sales, and manufacturing—primarily for venture-backed and growth-stage technology companies.

How are you different from traditional search firms?

Traditional firms often optimize for volume. We optimize for outcomes. Our searches are senior-led and confidential, with disciplined market mapping, direct sourcing, and rigorous screening. We use a retained-search methodology while pricing on a contingency basis, giving you a higher-touch process with aligned incentives.

When do companies typically engage you?

At inflection points—funding events, rapid scale-up, manufacturing ramp, or leadership transitions—when key hires directly impact execution, valuation, and credibility.

Can you share references or past work?

Yes. Most of our work is confidential and long-term in nature. References and representative engagements are available upon request.
