Now hiring product roles
We've been quietly hiring product roles for over a year, it's been awesome so we'll stop doing it quietly. A bunch of our tech recruiters have product management experience, so you're in great hands.
“Although I’m not coding on a daily basis, I’ve really enjoyed meeting developers and chatting with them. Having that technical background definitely helps me understand what developers and companies are after. I’ve also spent a lot of time giving people general advice on job searching and resume writing. They really appreciate that.”
Join our team
We don’t just hire for other companies; we’re also building our own dream team.
We hire people who care about technology and train them to become great technical recruiters.
