A search that respects your time

Confidential by default

Your details are never shared with any company without your explicit agreement. We tell you who the client is before we submit your profile. No surprises.

Honest about the roles

We will tell you the actual engineering challenges, the team structure, the delivery pressure, and anything else that is relevant to whether you will enjoy the work. No overselling.

Transparent on salary

We know the salary range before we approach you. We will not waste your time with a conversation that ends at an offer below your expectations.

You drive the pace

If you want to move quickly, we can run a process in under three weeks. If you want to take your time, we work around your timeline. This is your search, not ours.

  • Spray your CV to 20 companies without asking

  • Call you about roles you are clearly not suited for

  • Refuse to tell you who the client is before submission

  • Push you to accept an offer you are not comfortable with

  • Ghost you after you decline a role

  • Send generic interview tips as a substitute for briefing you properly

  • Negotiate your salary down on behalf of the client

Candidate FAQ

Do I need to be actively looking to talk to you?

No. Many engineers we work with are not actively searching - they are just open to hearing about the right opportunity. A confidential conversation costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

Will you spam me with roles that are not relevant?

No. We will only contact you about roles that genuinely match your seniority, stack, and what you told us you are looking for. We keep those conversations direct and infrequent.

Do you share my CV without asking me first?

Never. We will always tell you which company and role we want to submit your profile for, and get your explicit agreement before we do. Your job search is confidential until you decide otherwise.

What salary ranges do your roles typically cover?

Senior individual contributors typically sit between $150k and $250k base depending on seniority and specialisation. Engineering managers range from $180k to $280k. These are Australian base salaries, excluding super.

Do you work with contractors as well as permanent candidates?

Yes. We place both permanent and contract senior engineers. If you have a preference, tell us upfront and we will filter accordingly.

What locations do your roles cover?

Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and remote-first roles across Australia. Most of our clients are flexible on remote arrangements for senior candidates.
