Where these roles live.
The typical environments where these roles sit — useful framing if you're scoping a new brief.
Software engineering placements span product engineering at scale-ups, platform teams inside larger orgs, and specialist contexts — Salesforce ecosystem development, iOS-only mobile teams, and Go/Rust backends where the talent pool is materially smaller than the headline number suggests. We screen for fit on actual code quality, not on framework name-drops.
How we approach it.
Why Software Engineering placements need a different approach from generic tech recruitment.
- Stack-honest sourcing
- If a candidate has shipped two side-projects in your stack but their day job is something else, we say so. No "5 years of TypeScript" that's actually two years of TS plus three of JavaScript.
- Engineering culture fit
- We screen on what your engineering org actually looks like — code review depth, on-call expectations, IC vs management track — not on generic "team player" tropes.
- No volume sourcing
- Software engineering recruitment is the easiest discipline to do badly with 100 CVs/week. We deliberately stay narrow — three CVs that fit, not thirty that don't.
Recent placements.
Anonymised — we don't publish client names without written permission. Numbers are real.
Senior Backend Engineer (Go)
Joined a fintech scale-up's payment-platform team — Go services, high throughput, exactly-once semantics.
iOS Lead
Placed into a consumer-app company rebuilding their iOS estate on SwiftUI from a legacy Obj-C codebase.
Salesforce Developer
Hired into a multinational's Salesforce CoE working on Service Cloud + Experience Cloud customisations.
Engineering Manager
Placed into a B2B SaaS scale-up's platform team, leading 6 engineers with first-time-manager mentoring as part of the brief.
Common questions.
Common questions about Software Engineering placements. If yours isn't here, ask directly.
What stacks do you focus on?
Strongest pipeline: TypeScript / Node.js / React, Go, Python, Swift (iOS), and Salesforce. We work .NET and Rust roles but volume is materially lower.
Do you place engineering managers?
Yes — first-time-manager and seasoned-Lead both. We screen on engineering management substance (1-on-1s, performance management, road-mapping) rather than just "10 years of experience."
Can you support iOS-specific searches?
Yes. iOS is one of the niches where our network is unusually deep for our size — strong pipeline in Israel, Romania, and Poland for Senior and Lead Swift engineers.
Do you handle frontend-only roles?
For Senior+, yes. Frontend-only at Mid level we generally pass on — the market is full of volume agencies who serve that band better than we do.
