Hiring engineers in London

London is the most competitive engineering market in Europe, and the most expensive. Demand concentrates around fintech, AI and platform teams, where strong backend, infrastructure and machine-learning engineers are chased by well-funded scale-ups and the London offices of US companies. Most teams run hybrid, and the best engineers are rarely on the market for long.

We screen every engineer technically before you meet them, so your interview time goes on people who can genuinely do the work rather than on filtering CVs. Whether you are making your first senior hire or building out a platform team, we bring the network and the technical judgement to move quickly. We can also advise on where to draw the line between a senior and a staff-level hire, and how to structure an offer that holds up when counter-offers appear, as they often do in London.
