REVIEWS

We were looking for a Founding AI Engineer: a rare profile with strong production experience in LLMs, RAG, and multi-agent systems.

Lucky Hunter understood what we were looking for from the first briefing. They asked thoughtful questions, took the time to understand the product, and kept the process focused and efficient.

The speed and accuracy of the search were impressive — the first candidate was ultimately the one we moved forward with. Would definitely recommend them!

Lucky Hunter helped us fill the DBA position, requiring expertise in MySQL and PostgreSQL, within 15 days. The agency’s recruiters were professional and truly connected with us. They provided candidates who matched our requirements and expectations.

We’re pleased with our partnership and highly recommend them to anyone looking for skilled IT professionals.

WHY FINTECH HIRING IS HARD,
AND HOW WE SOLVE IT

OUR SOLUTION

NETWORKING
AND A BESPOKE APPROACH

NETWORKING AND A BESPOKE APPROACH

Hiring starts inside your business, not off a brief. In 9 years we„ve built a Deep Tech network and a live market view, so we reach people who never touch a job board, and we know where they actually are.

CHALLENGE

LIMITED POOL
OF TOP TALENT

LIMITED POOL OF TOP TALENT

The talent market moves faster than fintech can hire. The roles you need scale quicker than the pool that can fill them, and you’re up against Big Tech for the same names.

CHALLENGE

HOMOGENEITY
OF COMPANIES AND OFFERS

HOMOGENEITY OF COMPANIES AND OFFERS

On paper, everyone looks the same. Similar products, similar perks, similar comp. To move someone who’s already comfortable, the offer has to mean something specific to them.

OUR SOLUTION

HEADHUNTING
AND CUSTOM STRATEGIES

HEADHUNTING AND CUSTOM STRATEGIES

We calibrate the role against the market before we take it out. For each search we find what genuinely makes this move worth it, then bring it to people who aren’t looking, not only those who reply.

CHALLENGE

NICHE SPECIALISATION

These roles are genuinely hard to assess. Low-latency and HFT, payments infrastructure, security, quant, blockchain: the stack is specific and a wrong read is expensive.

OUR SOLUTION

EXPERIENCE AND EXPERTISE

We treat every hire as a product decision: business problem first, then market reality, then the search. Across 120 fintech projects, from startups to market leaders, that’s how we reach hiring-market fit, the point where the role, the market, comp, seniority and geography line up.
