Attract engineers
without recruiters.
Let’s face it: Hiring engineers is tough, and recruiters are costly. At Kinesis, we help owner-operated engineering firms build a compelling presence that attracts candidates who truly align with your mission. It's a path to compounding value instead of ongoing fees.
The Realities of Hiring Engineers
Engineering firms face a unique set of challenges in recruitment — especially when hiring for mid-career roles. The most qualified candidates are the ones most likely to be gainfully employed (not actively seeking new opportunities). And if you’re like most of our clients, you don’t have endless budget to compete with corporate tech salaries. Whatever budget does exist often goes toward expensive recruiters… who spend it pointing you toward candidates you already knew of. What if there was a better way?
Become a Destination for Engineering Talent
Imagine having a steady stream of exceptional candidates who are genuinely interested in your mission and eager to join your team. At Kinesis, we help your firm develop a presence that naturally draws these candidates to you — not by casting a wide net, but by turning your company into a magnet for those who align with your values and appreciate what you have to offer.
“ We didn’t even realize the depth of our uniqueness until Kinesis brought it to light. Their ability to extract that is almost uncanny. That’s rare, and it’s an intangible. You can’t appreciate it until you’ve actually gone through it with Kinesis.”
– Adam Mangrich, CEO of Systems West Engineers
How We Make It Happen
- Discovery: We’ll start by uncovering what makes your company worth joining and staying. We do this through team interviews (for the internal perspective) and a competitive analysis (for the external).
- Strategy Development: Then, we’ll work together on a positioning strategy that highlights what makes you a standout employer, designed to appeal directly to motivated candidates.
- Key Assets: We’ll create the necessary tools to capture the attention of prospective engineers — including anything from a Careers Page to video content to an event series concept.
- Activation: Finally, we’ll ensure those tools are ready for action — whether that means equipping your team or assisting with implementation ourselves.

“ When it comes to return on investment, I think about value. Instead of knocking doors down, we’ve turned ourselves into a magnet for right-fit employees. I get LinkedIn messages saying, ‘I want to work for Loupe.’ I will never hire another recruiter. What is that worth to you?”
– David Nichols, CEO & Co-Founder, Loupe
