We help engineers get what they're worth and help companies hire great people. Whether you're looking for your next role or the right candidate, we make it happen.
Companies use expensive compensation intelligence tools to anchor offers at the lowest defensible number. The average engineer negotiates alone, with incomplete data, against a team of professionals whose job is to close you for less.
HR teams have real-time salary data, budget floors, and negotiation training. You have a job posting and a gut feeling. That's not a fair fight.
We give you the same market intelligence companies use , and then we step into the negotiation on your behalf. You stay focused on the technical work. We handle the money.
Our services cost you nothing. We charge the company a placement fee when the hire closes. Your interests and ours are completely aligned.
Most engineers go through a job search feeling isolated , reading between the lines, guessing at timelines, and dreading the salary conversation. Representation changes that entirely.
We show you what roles at your level actually pay , base, equity, bonus , sourced from 400+ real placements. You walk into every conversation knowing the real ceiling.
We pitch you directly to CTOs and engineering VPs , before the role is posted. You get introductions, not application queue silence.
We handle the negotiation for you. You stay likable. We push for the max. Then we review the contract so you keep what's yours.
