Who we serve

Built for companies that
can't afford to get
a tech hire wrong.

Whether you're a 10-person startup shipping your first product, a 5,000-person enterprise modernising legacy infrastructure, a GCC setting up a world-class India engineering centre, or a VC-backed company doubling headcount every quarter — one bad tech hire can cost you 12–18 months. We make sure that doesn't happen.

Startups & Scale-ups

Seed to Series C

Your first CTO is the most consequential hire you'll ever make. It determines your architecture, your team culture, and every subsequent hire. We've built 50+ founding teams. We know the difference between a builder and a talker.

Speed matters — shortlist in 48h, not 3 weeks

🏢

Large-Scale Enterprises

500+ employees

Enterprises running digital transformation, cloud migration, or platform modernisation need leaders who've done it before — not candidates who've read about it. We access the talent that won't respond to your internal recruiter's cold InMail.

GCCs & Global R&D Centres

Global Captive Centres

Setting up or scaling a GCC in India is a once-in-a-decade opportunity — or a costly mistake. The difference is the first 10 leaders you hire. We know the India engineering market from the inside. We've placed leaders who went on to run some of India's most respected GCC engineering centres.

We don't just hire.
We design your TA strategy
and scale it fast.

In a market where top engineering talent has multiple offers on the table within 72 hours, your TA strategy is a competitive advantage — or a liability. We help you design a hiring process, employer brand, and interview framework that wins the best candidates before anyone else does.

🎯

Hiring funnel design

We map your entire candidate journey — from first touch to signed offer — and eliminate every drop-off point costing you top candidates.

Speed-to-hire optimisation

We audit your current process, identify bottlenecks, and rebuild for speed. Top candidates accept the first competitive offer they receive. First matters.

📚

Employer brand for tech talent

JD writing, EVP positioning, and interview experience design calibrated to what senior engineers and leaders actually care about.

📊

Interview calibration & training

We train your hiring managers to interview the way Amazon's best do — structured, bar-raising, and consistent across every panel.

🌟

Offer & close strategy

The gap between offer and acceptance is where most companies lose their best candidates. We manage it — from comp negotiation to notice navigation.

90-day onboarding framework

A hire isn't complete on day one. We provide a 90-day onboarding framework that ensures every placed leader delivers impact fast.

Honestly? I promoted too early. Made two senior engineers EMs before the team needed that layer — lost my best ICs and gained two struggling managers. I'd wait until the org actually needs the role, not when the person looks ready.

About the founder

Built by someone who's been
on both sides of the table.

Rajeev Reddy has strong experience at Amazon India as a senior leader running one of the most demanding technical hiring programmes in the country. He interviewed hundreds of engineering leaders, built hiring systems at scale, and learned exactly what separates a transformational hire from a costly mistake.

What he also learned: the executive search industry was broken. Recycled LinkedIn profiles. Shallow screening. Retainer fees with no accountability. Great companies were settling for mediocre leaders because the system was designed to be just good enough.

So he built HiringEye with three convictions: world-class hiring bars, a private talent network built on real relationships over 20 years, and — now — AI that makes the whole process 3× faster. And one rule: AI Powered first round interview, ever.

He's not a recruiter who stumbled into tech. He's a technologist who decided to fix recruiting.
