Technology team recruitment across every layer of the organisation, from Sydney to anywhere in Australia. The same rigour we apply to executive search, applied to every hire beneath it.
Capability Build
Build the
team that
delivers.
Most firms work one layer of the organisation. We work across the full technology function, from leadership through to delivery capability, with a consistent standard at every level.
- Engineering, product, data and AI
- Enterprise systems and architecture
- Program delivery and business analysis
- Same brief process. Every hire.
Coverage
What we build
We cover the full technology organisation. We are specialists in each domain with deep networks and genuine market knowledge. The brief process reflects the commercial reality of the role.
High demand
AI recruitment and machine learning hiring
AI hiring in Australia is moving fast and most businesses are still working out what they actually need. The roles are new, the market is tight, and the gap between someone who talks about AI strategy and someone who has delivered it in a business context is wide. We help clients get that definition right before they go to market.
Leadership
Chief AI Officers, Head of AI, AI Directors and the senior leaders who translate AI strategy into operating advantage.
Transformation and deployment
The people who take AI from proof of concept to commercial reality inside existing businesses. A different profile entirely from pure research.
Engineering and platform
ML engineers, AI engineers, data scientists and the platform teams who build and scale the infrastructure that makes AI work in production.
AI product
Product managers and leaders building AI-native products who understand both the technology and the customer outcome it needs to deliver.
Core
Software engineering
From engineering leads and architects through to senior individual contributors, we build software teams across Sydney and Australia that perform and stay. We understand delivery environments, tech stacks and what strong engineering culture actually looks like when it is working.
Core
Product management
Product organisations are only as strong as the people running them. We place product managers, directors and heads of product who understand customer need, commercial outcomes and how to align cross-functional teams to deliver both.
Core
Data and analytics
Data engineers, analytics engineers, data analysts and the platform teams that make data usable at scale. We build data organisations where the value shows up in how the business operates, not only in a dashboard.
Core
Enterprise technology
ERP, CRM, cloud infrastructure, architecture and enterprise systems. The teams that keep complex technology environments running and evolving. Deep expertise in finding people who can operate effectively in large, regulated and high-stakes environments.
Core
Program delivery and business analysis
Program managers, project managers, scrum masters, business analysts and change leads. The people who hold complex technology programmes together and translate business need into delivery reality.
Core
Cyber, cloud and platform
Security, cloud engineering, DevOps and platform teams. We place across architecture, engineering and operations in environments where reliability, security and scale are non-negotiable.
The quality of the brief determines the quality of the hire. That applies to every role, not just the ones at the top.
Our approach
How we work
We apply the same process to a senior engineer as we do to a CTO. The brief matters and the context matters at every level.
01
Define before you search
In fast-moving areas like AI, the role being hired for is often not the role that is needed. We work with technology leaders to define the real requirement before going to market.
02
Market intelligence
We know where the best people are, what they are being paid and what it takes to move them. That market knowledge informs the brief, the search and the offer stage.
03
Targeted sourcing
Deep domain networks built over years. We access talent pools that most firms do not reach, particularly in data, AI and senior engineering where the best people are rarely on the market.
04
Quality at pace
Speed matters when you are building capability. We move fast without lowering the standard, running a structured process that keeps quality and momentum from first conversation through to offer.
Clients
Who we work with
We work directly with technology leaders who are building or rebuilding capability, and with the investors and executives who need it done properly.
Technology leaders
We work directly with CTOs, CIOs, heads of engineering and product leaders on structure, sequencing and the people decisions that determine whether the function actually delivers.
Private equity and investors
Portfolio businesses that need to build technology capability quickly and to a standard. We have worked across enough PE environments to understand the pace, the commercial discipline and the expectation that every hire earns its place in the plan.
Scaling businesses
Moving fast without fragmenting quality. We partner closely with scaling technology businesses to build teams that can keep up with growth without the repeat hiring that slows it down.
Enterprise transformation
Large organisations rebuilding technology capability alongside the business. We work across the full technology organisation, finding the people who can run the business and change it at the same time.

FAQs
Common questions about how we build technology teams, what we cover, and how the process works.
How do you recruit AI and machine learning specialists in Australia?
We start by defining the real requirement. Most AI hiring briefs in Australia are too broad. We work with technology leaders to separate what needs to be built from what needs to be bought, then source from active networks across AI engineering, data science, ML ops and AI product in Sydney and nationally.
What is the difference between hiring a Chief AI Officer and a Head of Data?
A Chief AI Officer is typically accountable for AI strategy, adoption and commercial application across the business. A Head of Data is accountable for the data platform, governance and analytics capability. Some organisations need both. Many conflate the two. We help clients work out which they actually need before going to market.
How long does it take to build a technology team?
It depends on scope, but a well-run capability build with clear briefs and decision-making typically delivers a first cohort of senior hires in 6 to 10 weeks. The biggest risk factor is not sourcing but internal alignment on what the team should look like.
What technology roles do you recruit for beyond leadership?
Software engineers, product managers, data engineers, data scientists, ML engineers, AI engineers, platform engineers, cloud and DevOps specialists, enterprise and solution architects, ERP and HCM consultants, business analysts, scrum masters and programme managers. We cover the full technology organisation from senior individual contributors through to team leads and heads of function.
Do you recruit for contract and permanent roles across technology teams?
Yes, across both. The brief process is the same regardless of engagement type. For capability builds that need to move fast, we often run a mix of permanent and contract hiring in parallel so the team can start delivering while longer-term hires are secured.
How do you find and hire female software engineers in Australia?
Marie Higgins, our engineering and product search partner, hosts a community of over 1,000 women in technology across Australia. That is an active network of senior engineers, product leaders and technical operators built over twelve years, not a database. It gives us direct access to candidate pools that most firms cannot reach. Our track record on gender diversity in engineering and product hiring is backed by placement data and repeat engagement from organisations that measure it seriously.
