Turn your existing candidate flow into $75k–$200k placements.

Last week we split a $400K fee 50/50 with a partner firm into a hedge fund. That's the model.

We work exclusively in quantitative finance — placing software engineers and quant developers into the top US hedge funds and trading firms. We're retained by around 80% of the top 15 in the world and our average placement fee is $200,000. Right now we have an $8M+ annual hiring funnel we can't fill alone, and we're looking for the right delivery partners to work alongside us.

The Opportunity

  • $75K first placement, $100K second and beyond — sliding to 50/50 on performance

  • Pipeline incentives with our biggest client: $2,000 per 10 candidates we accept, $5,000 per onsite interview reached

  • Fully remote — work from anywhere

  • Live retained mandates across quant and software engineering

  • No exclusivity. No quotas. No change to how you operate.

What We're Looking For

You don't need to know the quant market. You need to already have software engineers — backend, full stack, Python, C++, ML, or infrastructure — coming out of big tech, startups, or high-growth companies. We provide the clients, the process, and the framework. You feed the top of the funnel and earn on results.

This works best if you are:

  • An ex-agency biller or boutique founder with a live SWE candidate base

  • A recruiter who wants bigger fees without taking on new clients

  • Someone who wants to earn alongside an existing role or business

This isn't for you if you:

  • Need a base salary or guaranteed income

  • Rely on inbound or avoid outreach

  • Are starting from scratch with no existing candidate relationships

How to Apply

After applying, we'll ask you to share:

  • 2–3 examples of relevant placements (software engineering preferred)

  • Your current focus areas and typical weekly outreach volume

  • One example candidate you'd submit into this market
