A US-wide technical-recruitment desk. Permanent engineering and product placements, run by consultants who can read the stack.
Lake Tech Solutions runs permanent technology recruitment across software engineering, DevOps and cloud, data engineering, cybersecurity, IT support, systems administration, network engineering, solutions architecture, product management and technical project management. The book of business is US technology employers from Series-A startups through public-company engineering teams.
The desk is built on one operating premise: you cannot recruit a senior backend engineer if you cannot read backend code. Every Lake Tech consultant has shipped production software, run an engineering sprint, or owned a live system. They read your tech stack and your tech-debt context, and they filter candidates against the engineering reality, not the resume keywords.
The consultant who picks up your brief is the consultant who runs the search end to end. Mapping, sourcing, technical screen, take-home review, references, offer, mobilisation, day-90 review. There is no junior researcher behind the curtain doing the actual work.
The strongest engineers and product managers rarely apply through a job board. We work peer-employer alumni, open-source contributor networks and technical communities. Targeted, named, individualised outreach. Public posting is a last resort.
Our pre-introduction technical screen is run by a consultant who can read the code. We will not push a candidate through a screening step we cannot do ourselves.
Forward a resume we have not technically reviewed. Pattern-match on keywords without understanding the stack context. Inflate a comp band to win the search. Pull a candidate from a competing client without explicit, written consent. Treat day-one as the close of the engagement.
VPs of Engineering, CTOs, heads of product, technical recruiting leaders and engineering managers at US technology employers between Series-A and Fortune-500 scale. Companies that need their next engineer to commit working code in week one, not month three.
Every direct-hire placement carries a 90-day replacement guarantee. If a placement does not work out, we re-run the search at no additional fee. The terms are written into the engagement letter, not buried in fine print.
