Where technical excellence is non-negotiable.
The perfect blend of a recruitment, consulting and training firm, adapting precisely to your situation.
Permanent hire
Hire the exact engineer you need, headhunted and technically vetted before being introduced to you.
You only have two things to do: describe your need at the start and choose the profile at the end. If the shortlist isn't right, we adjust the search and present new profiles, at no extra cost.

Fees
Success-based
You pay once the probation period is completed, not before.
We work on a success basis: you only pay once the candidate is confirmed after their probation period. Thanks to our proprietary headhunting software, we identify highly targeted profiles worldwide, far beyond the usual applications on job boards.
A specialized firm knows the jobs, the standards and the talent pools, which makes your hiring and upskilling faster and more reliable. Our founder is an engineer himself, so we understand our clients' technical challenges, a credibility that is rare in HR.
It can happen, but it is rare: most of the time, we come to you and build the training around your architecture, your technologies and your challenges. For a wider audience, we also organize masterclasses and talks. And if you are rather looking to hire engineers, short or long term, our headhunting takes care of it.
Our training courses are currently tailored services invoiced directly to the company. We are in the process of obtaining the Qualiopi certification: once it is effective, it will allow our clients to request funding from their OPCO, the French training funds. No CPF (French personal training account) for now.
Yes. Our experts travel directly to your site: Paris, French regions, Europe, international. The mobility of our trainers is a key part of our offer.
Our experts favor action-oriented, co-constructed teaching. Sessions are intensive and based on field experience. About 80% of the time is spent applying the concepts to case studies or directly to your own issues, and 20% on theory. The goal is an immediate operational impact.
