Who We Are
We're for Founders who are done with bad recruiters.
We've placed engineers, operators, and founding-team members across startups in the US, LATAM and beyond.
We know the difference between a hire who looks good on paper and one who's still with you at Series B.
Findfolks embeds directly with founding teams as their first recruiter - handling full-cycle hiring from sourcing to closing so founders can stay focused on building.
We work with early-stage startups worldwide, stepping in as a true extension of your team — not an outside agency. Whether you're making your first critical hire or scaling fast, we move with the same urgency you do.
Why?
- Recruiting is broken for early-stage startups.
- Agencies send you a bunch of CVs.
- Job boards flood you with irrelevant applicants.
- You end up spending 30% of your week on interviews that had no business happening.
We fix that.
Who We Work With
Early-stage startups (Seed to Series B)
Founders who don’t have time to run hiring themselves
Teams with roles open but no real pipeline
Teams that need to move fast without lowering the bar
What We Do
Pick the engagement that fits where you are right now. All of them come with the same thing: a talent partner who can build your founding teams.
Embedded Talent Partner
We join your team and own hiring end-to-end, from role design to close.
You get a senior recruiter fully embedded in your team, working alongside you daily, not sending updates from the outside.
Best for:
Founders hiring multiple roles who want hiring fully taken off their plate.
Hiring Sprint (4 Weeks)
Short-term, high-intensity hiring support to build momentum fast.
We focus on 1–3 roles, build pipeline, qualify candidates, and get you to final interviews quickly.
Best for:
Founders who need traction now but aren’t ready for a long-term commitment.
Per-Hire Search
You won’t get 20 CVs. You’ll get a few candidates worth hiring.
-
Targeted sourcing (no job boards, no inbound spam)
-
Screening and shortlisting (quality > volume)
-
Offer strategy and close support
Best for:
Founders hiring a critical role they can’t afford to get wrong.
Why We Exist
Startups deserve better than enterprise recruiting.
The infrastructure built for Fortune 500 hiring is completely wrong for a 12-person startup. Slow. Generic. Misaligned.
Founders burn runway on hires made under pressure. Great candidates ignore companies that feel like job-board noise. And first-time founders treat hiring like a checkbox when it's actually the most important thing they'll do in year one.
Findfolks was built to change that.
We're operators who understand how early-stage companies actually work — and we sit inside them to make hiring feel less like a gamble and more like a strategy.
