Why TagHire

Recruitment moves too slow for how fast AI moves

Generic agencies forward résumés for one function. Building an AI company takes a whole team — engineers who ship, PMs who get the tech, and a GTM engine that can sell it. We source and vet across all of it.

🎯

Signal, not spray

No inbox of 200 loosely-matched résumés. You get a tight shortlist of people who fit the exact role, stage, and problem you're hiring for.

🧠

Deeply screened

Every candidate is assessed for craft, judgment, and the ability to deliver in their function — so you meet only people worth your time.

🧩

Every function, one partner

Engineering, product, GTM, sales, marketing, revenue ops, customer success — staff your whole org without juggling five different agencies.

Built for AI speed

Roles sourced and vetted on timelines that match how fast your roadmap — and your funding runway — are moving.

🤝

Aligned incentives

We win when your hires stay and thrive. Quality of match is the metric, not headcount pushed through a funnel.

🌐

Access to hidden talent

The best people rarely apply — technical or commercial. We reach the passive, referral-only network built over a decade in AI.

Roles we cover

Every function it takes to build an AI company

An AI company is far more than its models. Based on how leading AI-native orgs are actually structured, TagHire staffs all twelve functions below — from research and infrastructure to GTM, safety, and leadership — under one vetted roof.

✦ Vetted by a group of AI leaders

Vetted by a group of AI leaders who've built the field

TagHire isn't a résumé mill. Behind every shortlist is a collective of leaders with more than twenty years in the industry — and the last decade focused specifically on AI: building companies and teams, and delivering products that reached real customers.

Candidates aren't filtered by keywords — they're evaluated by people who've done the work across research, engineering and go-to-market, assessed for what actually predicts success in each function, whether the role writes the model or sells it.

Role-specific screeningReal evaluation of craft and problem-solving for each function — not a generic checklist.
Track-record verificationWe look for evidence of shipping, selling, or scaling — not just credentials.
Judgment & ownershipThe traits that separate great hires from good ones, assessed directly.
Culture & stage fitMatched to your team's velocity, ambiguity tolerance, and stage.
The Process

From role to signed offer, without the noise

A tight, transparent process designed to get you building faster.

01

Deep intake

We map the role, stack, stage, and the actual problem you need solved — not just a job title.

02

Targeted sourcing

We reach into a decade-deep network of AI builders, most of whom never hit the open market.

03

Careful vetting

Each candidate is screened for craft, judgment, and ability to deliver in their function.

04

Curated shortlist

You meet only people we'd hire ourselves — with clear notes on why each one fits.

CT
