Tech recruitment in New York.
Tech, product and data recruitment for New York’s startups and scale-ups.
Hiring tech talent in New York
New York is the largest tech ecosystem outside Silicon Valley and the gravitational centre of the US East Coast scene. Fintech, AI, media and B2B SaaS all hire aggressively here, and compensation, especially total compensation including equity, is among the highest in the world. To win, you need to move fast and present a genuinely compelling story.
We bring a technically rigorous screen and a transatlantic network to that market. Whether you’re a New York company hiring senior engineers and product leaders, or a European scale-up making your first US hires, we help you compete for the right people.
Built for transatlantic hiring
One of our strengths is helping companies operate across the UK, EU and US. We regularly help European scale-ups stand up a New York team, and US firms hire across Europe, advising both sides on comp expectations, equity norms and the practical realities of building across time zones.
The New York market, briefly
Total compensation is high and equity-heavy, and the strongest engineers field multiple competing offers. Most teams now run hybrid schedules. Because the market moves quickly and counter-offers are routine, a tight process and a well-constructed offer are essential.
The ranges below are indicative of what we see for New York-based roles and reflect base salary; equity and bonus often add materially on top. Come and meet us at our WeWork space in New York to talk through your hiring plan.
