What clients say.
The hiring team needed someone who could build a Java automation framework from scratch, and we had worked the search for six straight months with at least 12 or 13 vendors. TekRecruiter sent one candidate, and he got the job.
We needed to hire a senior IAM engineer with deep SOC 2 knowledge, and the role had been open for more than three months. Within a week of speaking with Ron, his team sent over three very solid profiles, and we finally found the right fit in just two weeks.
Across multiple companies, I’ve hired more than six senior software engineers through TekRecruiter, and every one of them has been an impressive builder.
I got a firsthand look when I needed a software engineer with strong TypeScript skills to join my team. I was happy with the candidates, and I was able to make a hiring decision.
A former colleague referred me to TekRecruiter, and I was very impressed by the caliber of the senior DevOps engineers they presented. I identified two senior DevOps engineers who were exceptional fits for my team.
He said he would share three to four candidates within a week, and that’s exactly what he did. We hired a senior software engineer we’re confident in, and we’ve been thrilled with how well things have worked out.
The few times I’ve hired over the last five years, I’ve always been vendor neutral, and TekRecruiter has been the staffing partner that filled every one of those open engineering roles.
Their ability to quickly supply highly skilled software and DevOps engineers who blend in well with our existing teams continues to amaze me. They are highly technical at the account management level and transparently propose different solutions, whether staff augmentation or nearshore outsourcing.
AI-native. Human-led.
Founder Ron Smith studied computer science at Florida International University and began his career as a founding software engineer. After being part of a successful startup acquisition, he moved into technical recruiting, where he has spent well over a decade learning what differentiates the best people and companies.
That experience shaped our approach to recruiting, underpinned by our proprietary AI-native operating system. How we recruit comes down to a first-principles philosophy: to truly say you've found the best people, you must have had the most quality conversations with the right people. Doing that on every role we work is what separates us from any other recruiting agency or platform.

- Always proactively recruitingWe stay in constant communication with the people in our internal pipeline, maintaining an evergreen network of talent across our focus areas.
- Understand your businessWe work as an extension of you. We start with the company: the mission, what you build, how the product works, who you compete with, where you are headed, and what the environment is really like. This lets us set transparent expectations and find people who truly value exactly what you have to offer.
- Understand the roleWe learn what this person will actually do, how success is measured, what a top performer looks like, and how the role fits into the organization. This gives us a bullseye for who we are looking for.
- Build the pipelineOur AI-native operating system lets our team design robust, evergreen pipelines around every role at lightning speed, using over 1 trillion data points and profiles across internal and external sources.
- Have the conversationsWith more than 3,000 people contacted per role on average, we hold around 1,000 conversations with people who are qualified on paper, to see whether interest and everything else aligns.
- Present the best 3 or 4Every search is different, but usually within a week we find three or four candidates who are truly the best fit for the role and fully aligned with what you are looking for. Our support is end to end: we help schedule interviews, keep the process moving, and keep candidates updated.
- The right fit, or we keep searchingOur numbers show that 65% of the time, one of the candidates we present lands the position and receives the offer. If that is not the outcome, we get straight back to work: the pipeline for the role is already built and evergreen.

What roles does TekRecruiter recruit?

How is TekRecruiter different from other IT staffing firms?
TekRecruiter is built from the same kind of people it places: engineers, product owners and account executives who build and sell technology for a living. We recruit who we would hire, and our tech recruiters screen through peer-to-peer technical conversations rather than keyword matching. Founder Ron Smith is a Computer Science graduate and software engineer with over a decade of technical recruiting experience.
How fast can you deliver candidates?
For direct hire, most clients meet a shortlist within about a week of the intake call. 82% of the candidates we submit are interviewed, and we have made 167 tech and engineering placements in 2026 so far. Contract consultants can be onboarded in as little as 3 days.
What is staff augmentation?
Staff augmentation is a flexible model where vetted external engineers extend your team on a temporary or project basis. They work under your management, giving you full control while quickly adding specialized skills without long-term commitments. With contract-to-hire, the consultant is a TekRecruiter W-2 employee with health and PTO benefits, and you can convert them to full-time when ready.
How does nearshore hiring work?
We place English-speaking, vetted engineering and technical talent in Latin America, aligned to your time zone, at about 50% lower cost than US hires. TekRecruiter has a secondary headquarters in São Paulo and recruits across Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Uruguay and Ecuador. Consultants work directly under your management.
Is there a guarantee?
Direct-hire placements carry a 90-day placement guarantee. With contract-to-hire you interview each consultant first and build the relationship before making a permanent commitment.
