We feel your pain

Rapid growth, changing niche skills, and a fierce war for talent present tech companies and IT service providers with unique talent challenges:

Digital acceleration: technologies evolve faster than people and organizations.

Outdated skills: the shortage of specialized IT talent is increasing, while existing knowledge quickly becomes obsolete.

Rising labor costs: the high price tag of scarce IT talent puts pressure on budgets and priorities.

We understand the specific challenges in your sector

Rapid scaling

From 5 to 50 developers in 12 months? No easy task, as scaling requires both speed and quality.

Small talent pool

Specialists such as AI/ML engineers or blockchain developers do not grow on trees.

Poachers on the prowl

Losing valuable employees costs a fortune, but IT and tech professionals have their pick of jobs. How do you build an organization that retains talent for the long term?

Big Tech breathing down your neck

IT and tech companies compete not only with each other but also with Big Tech. How do you attract experienced talent without Google’s budgets?

Talent Support use case
Yesplan: team optimization

Keywords: Team structure, roles, governance, leadership

Challenge

Yesplan, part of Activity Stream, was at a tipping point after the integration. The Belgian engineering team was losing clout due to unclear roles, high operational pressure and a lack of clear leadership. The focus was mainly on maintenance, causing product development and innovation to stagnate. At the same time, there was a growing need for structure, clear priorities and a team set-up that once again offered trust, ownership and growth perspectives.

Solution

We supported Yesplan in redesigning their engineering structure. We brought clarity to roles, governance and mandate. We also guided the creation of a forward-looking team structure with a strong Product Operations Lead as the pivotal figure. In this way, we once again created calm, focus and a clear basis for sustainable product development and collaboration.

Result

Cooperation both within the Belgian team and with the international organization improved noticeably. Decisions were made more quickly, tensions decreased and the focus shifted from problems to solutions. This created a healthy dynamic in which progress became possible.

Reference

Wouter Vermeylen, vice president Yesplan: “Amon Geniki knew how to translate complex team and leadership issues into a clear and concrete plan of action. Their insights were sharp, realistic and immediately applicable.”

Staffing use case
Itsme: 5-year partnership

Keywords: Structural IT, organizational development

Challenge

In recent years, itsme® has experienced strong growth in users, applications, and international ambitions. This scaling up placed high demands on the IT organization: performance, security, and reliability had to remain guaranteed in an increasingly complex technical environment. At the same time, there was a need for specialized IT profiles that could scale quickly with the further expansion of the platform.

Solution

Through our deep knowledge of the IT & tech sector and our ability to source both operational and management profiles, we became a strategic partner for itsme. We understand the specific challenges of the environment and find candidates who can handle this complexity.

Result

We have been working with itsme for 5 years and have filled 22 positions during that period (100% retention!). This includes both operational roles (system/cloud engineers, security specialists, architects, developers) and management roles (customer care, release management). We contributed to the further expansion of their IT organization and grew into a trusted partner that contributes to their talent strategy.

Reference

Tom Van Den Bosch, CEO itsme: “The scale and complexity of itsme required an IT team that grows as fast as our platform. With Amon Geniki, we have a partner who not only delivers talent but helps build sustainable IT capacity.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is tech recruitment so challenging?

Recruitment for tech companies and IT service providers is challenging due to high competition. Developers, engineers, and architects often receive multiple offers simultaneously, and Big Tech competes for the same talent. Speed, employer branding, and technical credibility are crucial. At Amon Geniki, we understand tech culture, speak the language of developers, and authentically convince candidates about your tech stack, team, and ambitions.

We see the greatest scarcity in:

  • Senior Full Stack Developers (React/Node, Python)
  • Cloud Architects (AWS, Azure, GCP)
  • DevOps & Platform Engineers
  • Senior Backend Engineers (Java, .NET, Go)
  • Security Engineers
  • Engineering Leaders (Tech Leads, VPs of Engineering)
  • AI/ML Engineers and niche specialists (Rust, Blockchain)

We see the greatest scarcity in:

  • Senior Full Stack Developers (React/Node, Python)

  • DevOps & Platform Engineers
  • Senior Backend Engineers (Java, .NET, Go)
  • Security Engineers
  • Engineering Leaders (Tech Leads, VPs of Engineering)
  • AI/ML Engineers and niche specialists (Rust, Blockchain)

The best developers are often passive seekers. We source via GitHub, Stack Overflow, tech communities, and our network. Crucially: we do not sell a ‘job’, but an opportunity to make an impact. We understand what drives developers: technical challenges, modern tech stack, learning & growth, autonomy, and a team of peers.

Yes. Our recruiters have a technical background or years of experience in tech recruitment. We know the difference between React and Angular, monoliths and microservices, SQL and NoSQL. This allows us to discuss architecture, tooling, and best practices technically for better screening and higher acceptance rates.

Absolutely. We offer dedicated recruitment support, from a single profile to full team builds. With Talent-as-a-Service, we assemble a team and deploy it flexibly, so that speed and quality go hand in hand.

In tech, everything revolves around speed. We present the first candidates within 1–2 weeks and achieve a hire within 4–6 weeks for senior profiles. This is achieved through proactive sourcing, a warm network, and efficient processes.

Yes. For scaling tech teams, we help find Tech Leads, Engineering Managers, VPs of Engineering, and CTOs. These profiles are rare and require executive search expertise. We screen for people management, technical vision, and cultural fit.

Yes. Whether it concerns Rust, Elixir, Scala, Kotlin, or other niche frameworks, we source broadly and deeply, including internationally. Developers with high learning agility are often more valuable than exact-match candidates.

AI/ML talent is scarce and expensive. We source via Kaggle, research communities, universities, and our international network. We screen not only for algorithms and frameworks but also for practical engineering skills for production-grade AI systems.

Yes. For IT service providers, we provide permanent consultants and flexible contractors. We build Talent Pools of pre-screened developers who can be deployed quickly. Candidates are selected based on affinity with client contact, flexibility, and broad technological skills.

Employer branding is crucial. We advise on:

  • Competitive compensation
  • Modern tech stack
  • Remote/hybrid working
  • Learning budgets and autonomy
  • Authentic employer value proposition

We position you authentically: many developers choose impact, autonomy, and a close-knit team over a higher salary at Big Tech.

Yes. We have an international network and help with remote developers, relocation, work permits, and visa procedures. This gives you access to a much larger talent pool.

We start with an intake: a deep dive into tech stack, team culture, hiring needs, and growth ambitions. Then we source proactively, screen technically and culturally, and present only candidates who match. We facilitate interviews, advise on offers, and guide onboarding. We also remain involved after placement for optimal retention.
