1st10

Founder/Talent

Oct 2023Present · 2 yrs 7 mos · Remote

  • 1st10 was founded on the simple philosophy that there's nothing more important to the success of your startup than the first ten engineers you hire. Because the first ten will impact the next ten and any wrong misstep can be the difference between success and failure. 1st10 works with world class founders to build early engineering teams. We then fortify those teams with exceptional talent as they grow.
  • 1st10 is made up of veteran recruiters, each with a passion for the craft, love for people and commitment to building world class engineering teams. We partner closely with early-stage investors, exceptional founders and top engineering talent. Our team lives at the epicenter of these three communities making high value connections for all.

  • Binc was best known for pioneering the embedded recruiting model (aka tech rpo). This involved deploying highly skilled recruiting teams to work under the umbrella brand of high growth technology companies to deliver on high stakes recruiting assignments. We did this at timely growth inflections for well known brands like Pinterest (2012), Airbnb (2014), Ripple (2013), Robinhood (2019), Reddit (2015), Nextdoor (2012), Carbon (2015), Mesosphere (2014) and many more.
  • We also innovated in the area of people-first culture which included focusing heavily on mission, values and cultivating an employment experience of learning, development, growth and empowerment. Through our 18 years in business, we had the opportunity to work with an incredible group of individuals who have now developed into an incredible alumni community. This is made up of recruiters, sourcers, recruiting leaders and people operators who are distributed across some of the top technology companies in the industry. Each of these individuals are skilled at their craft, embody people-first values and continue to carry the Binc ethos forward.
