We represent technical professionals and help companies hire talent. We help engineers get what they're worth and help businesses find the right people.
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.

"I wanted to leave my role quietly. Leon coordinated intros with select VPs of Engineering without putting my resume in any database. The transition was smooth, fast, and completely private."
"Three companies I had never applied to directly reached out to me within a week. I ended up with two competing offers and negotiated my base up by $35k. I didn’t even know that was possible."
