Our specialisms.

We run permanent searches in eight areas. Each one covers the technical roles you would expect, plus the commercial, operational and leadership roles those teams need. Every search runs on written terms agreed in advance.

§ 01

AI Labs & Foundation Models

Frontier research organisations hire against a narrow evidence base: published work, training runs actually shipped, and judgement under compute constraints. We run permanent searches across research, engineering, product and the commercial and operational roles that a lab needs to function.

  • · Research Scientist (pre-training, post-training, alignment, evaluation)
  • · Research Engineer and Member of Technical Staff
  • · Training Infrastructure Lead

§ 02

ML Engineering

We search permanently for the engineers who run models in production and for the engineering leaders, product owners and operational staff accountable for them. Briefs are written around what the role actually owns: training, serving, platform or the teams behind them.

  • · ML Engineer / Applied Scientist
  • · Inference or Serving Engineer
  • · ML Platform Engineer

§ 03

Protocol & Smart Contracts

Much protocol and contract work leaves a public record: commits, deployed addresses and governance posts a candidate can point to. We run permanent searches for core protocol and smart contract engineers, and for the technical, product and commercial leadership around them.

  • · Core Protocol Engineer (consensus, execution, networking)
  • · Smart Contract Engineer
  • · Protocol Research Engineer

§ 04

Security & Audit

Security hiring rewards demonstrated findings over titles. Public reports, disclosed vulnerabilities and competition results are the evidence. We search permanently across audit, protocol security and applied cryptography, including the leadership that sets security policy.

  • · Smart Contract Auditor
  • · Security Engineer, protocol or infrastructure
  • · ZK / Cryptography Engineer

§ 05

Crypto Infrastructure

Infrastructure hiring is about uptime, keys and blast radius. We run permanent searches across node and validator operations, custody, wallets and exchange infrastructure, including the operational, compliance-adjacent and leadership roles alongside engineering.

  • · Infrastructure / SRE Engineer for chain infrastructure
  • · Validator Operations Engineer
  • · Custody or Key Management Engineer

§ 06

Quant & Trading

Trading hires are assessed on process and constraints, not on a headline number. We run permanent searches for quantitative researchers, systematic traders, trading infrastructure engineers and the desk and risk leadership around them.

  • · Quantitative Researcher
  • · Systematic or Market Making Trader
  • · Trading Infrastructure / Low Latency Engineer

§ 07

Growth & Community

Commercial and community roles are where technical credibility meets audience. We run permanent searches for growth, marketing, community and communications people who can hold a technical conversation and be trusted with a public account.

  • · Head of Growth
  • · Community Lead or Ecosystem Manager
  • · Content or Developer Marketing Lead

§ 08

Operations & People

The people who run the business side of a technical firm need to understand how it actually works. We run permanent searches for people operations, executive support, finance and operations, compliance and risk, and client and customer support roles at crypto, trading and AI firms.

  • · Head of People or People Operations Manager
  • · HR Business Partner
  • · Executive Assistant or Personal Assistant
