How to hire data platform engineers

Who these people are

The engineers who build and run your data platform: Databricks, Snowflake, Palantir Foundry, dbt, PySpark, Airflow, Microsoft Fabric. Titles vary. The named product is what makes the role hard.

Why your ad brings nobody you want

The certified people sit inside consultancies and product companies. They are employed, they are paid well, and they do not read job boards.

What we do

Every person in your market who works with these products is found and told about the role, within two weeks. The interested ones book themselves into your calendar.

What it looked like last time

A search for Palantir Foundry experts: 40,000 people read in the market, the best 500 reached, 137 answered, 40 interviews and one hire a month after handover. Six months of an ad had brought nobody.

Which markets

DACH, the United Kingdom, the Nordics, Benelux, the United States and the Gulf. A search runs only where more than a thousand relevant people exist.

The first call

Twenty minutes. We bring a shortlist of the best few candidates for your role and the count of relevant people in your market.

Do you find people certified on a specific platform?

Yes. The search starts from the product the role really needs, not from a job title, because a title is easy to fill and a title plus a named product is not.

How fast do interviews start?

The first interviews usually start inside the first month; everyone relevant hears about the role within two weeks.
