About Us

At Amadeus Search, we connect exceptional people with the companies defining the future. We specialize in seed and Series A startups, partnering directly with founders and technical leaders who are building the next generation of AI, infrastructure, and software systems.

Our candidates are builders, researchers, and operators who move fast and think deeply. Many come from the world’s most selective technical teams — from FAANG and top trading firms to early-stage labs — and they’re ready to join startups where they can make a real dent.

We take a hands-on, founder-first approach. Every search begins with a deep understanding of a company’s technical vision and culture, and every introduction is thoughtful, personal, and high-signal. We believe great recruiting is an art form — a mix of pattern recognition, intuition, and respect for the people who make innovation possible.

Our goal is simple:

To help brilliant people find the environments where they do their life’s best work and to help founders fulfill their soul mission to create the future of tech.  

 

 

What We Do

We offer a full spectrum of search and talent-building services designed for early-stage, high-growth teams:

  • Retained Search — Deep partnership on critical or confidential hires, where precision and alignment matter most.

  • Contingent Search — Rapid, high-signal sourcing for startups scaling key functions fast.

  • Reverse Recruiting — Support for top candidates seeking roles that match their vision and technical depth.

  • Scale-Up / Internal Recruiting — Embedded recruiting programs that act as an extension of your team to accelerate hiring across multiple roles. 

  • The Amadeus Accelerator (By Application Only) — A curated partnership program for select startups. We combine talent strategy, recruiting infrastructure, and network access to help founders build category-defining teams from the ground up.

 

Who We Work With

We work with companies backed by top-tier venture firms, and with candidates who want more than another job — they want a mission. 

Join Our Team

We’re building a new kind of recruiting network — one where outstanding recruiters work for themselves, not by themselves.

At Amadeus Search, we empower experienced search professionals to operate independently while tapping into our shared brand, infrastructure, and deal flow.
 You’ll have the freedom to own your client relationships, the backing of a trusted network, and access to a community of peers sourcing for the world’s most innovative startups.

If you’re a recruiter who loves autonomy, operates with excellence, and wants to work alongside others at the top of their game — we’d love to meet you.
