The engineers you can't afford to get wrong deserve more than a keyword match.
A free Talent Intelligence Audit for engineering and delivery leaders: 30 minutes that show you exactly where your technical workforce gaps are, what the market is really paying, and how long your open roles will realistically take to fill — before your next project deadline makes the decision for you.
Why technical hiring stalls
The screening gap
Recruiters who can't read a schematic can't screen the engineers who write them. Keyword-matched candidates burn your architects' interview slots and your team's confidence in the pipeline.
Certifications aren't experience
A cloud certification and production cloud experience are different things — and a non-technical screen can't tell them apart. We evaluate against what a candidate has actually shipped and kept running.
The market moved. Did your comp structure?
Many "impossible" searches are actually compensation misalignment — the role is priced for a market that no longer exists. An honest benchmark often unsticks a search faster than more sourcing.
How the audit works
Discovery session — 30 minutes
A technical conversation (with an engineer, not an account manager) mapping your current team, open seats, and upcoming project demands.
Market analysis — 3–5 business days
We analyze candidate availability in your stack, compensation benchmarks against your structure, and realistic time-to-fill projections for each role.
Your Workforce Intelligence Report
A written report — role gap analysis, comp benchmarking, time-to-fill projections, and prioritized hiring recommendations — plus a 20-minute debrief. You keep the report either way. No obligation, and we mean it: the report has to stand on its own.
Where we're qualified to audit
We only audit stacks we can screen honestly:
Telecom & 5G
OSS/BSS, billing & charging, 5G core, RAN/vRAN, policy control, 3G→5G migrations.
Cloud & DevOps
Kubernetes, Terraform, AWS/Azure/GCP, SRE and platform engineering in telecom-grade environments.
Enterprise Platforms & AI
ServiceNow architecture and delivery, plus AI/agentic tooling for GTM and operations teams.
Who runs it
Every audit is run personally by Chase Knox — an electrical engineer who grew up in this family firm and has been recruiting technical talent since his teens. His screening range runs from firmware and telecom protocol layers up through Kubernetes-orchestrated cloud workloads — which is exactly why the audit conversation is technical, not transactional.
Behind him: 25+ years of firm specialization in the telecom software ecosystem, including 300+ specialists deployed for a single Tier-1 OSS/BSS provider in 90 days.
