About

Hiring great engineers in fintech has never been more competitive. The companies building modern financial products need engineers who can design reliable systems, scale infrastructure, and move quickly in highly regulated environments. Finding those engineers and getting them interested in the right opportunity is often the hardest part. I help fintech SaaS companies with 100 or more employees hire exceptional engineering talent by identifying and engaging engineers who can make a real impact on their teams. My focus is on building strong relationships within the fintech engineering community and connecting companies with engineers who are capable of building the systems behind modern financial products. How I Help Fintech Teams 🚀 Identifying and engaging high-quality software engineers across the fintech ecosystem 🚀 Supporting engineering leaders with difficult or time-sensitive technical hires 🚀 Delivering well-vetted candidates aligned with both technical requirements and team culture 🚀 Acting as a specialized recruiting partner for fintech companies scaling engineering teams Who I Work With 🔹 CTOs 🔹 VP Engineering 🔹 Directors of Engineering 🔹 Engineering Managers Roles I Frequently Recruit For ✅ Software Engineers ✅ Backend Engineers ✅ Full-Stack Engineers ✅ DevOps/Infrastructure Engineers These engineers often work on systems such as: • Financial API • Payment infrastructure • Distributed systems • Cloud-based platforms Background My background includes experience working in both inhouse and agency recruiting environments, supporting engineering hiring for fintech companies. Before transitioning into recruiting, I spent several years working as a psychologist, which helped me develop strong skills in understanding people, communication, and evaluating candidates - abilities that are highly valuable when identifying the right talent for technical teams. My Approach Many of the strongest engineers are not actively applying to jobs. My focus is on proactively identifying and engaging top technical talent so fintech companies can access candidates they would not otherwise reach through traditional hiring channels.
