FinTech Headhunting & Consulting

Hire the people who move money forward.

Artemis headhunts for fintech companies, from the C-suite to the payments, risk, compliance, and platform engineers who keep products fast, secure, and regulator-ready. We find talent in the market, not on the market.

Every transaction depends on trust. Every team is only as good as its hires.

Why fintech hiring is different

The people who know finance and the code are rare.

Fintech companies, banks, and big tech all recruit from the same small pool. We build every search around that reality.

01

Finance plus engineering

Engineers who understand ledgers, payment rails, and money movement, and can also ship production code at scale, are few, and nearly all of them are employed.

02

Regulation raises the bar

Compliance, BSA/AML, and risk leaders need real regulatory experience. A wrong hire here is felt by auditors, partner banks, and regulators.

03

Competing with banks and big tech

Fintechs recruit against established financial institutions and large tech companies for the same engineers, product leaders, and executives.

04

Stage changes the profile

The leader who builds a product from zero is rarely the one who scales it through licensing, partner banks, and audits, which narrows every search.

What you get

A shortlist, not a stack of resumes.

Every search is built to put a small set of qualified, interested candidates in front of your hiring team.

Qualified before you meet them

Candidates are interviewed and assessed by your delivery manager before they reach your calendar.

Interest, not just fit

We approach passive candidates as an ambassador for your company, so the people you meet already want the conversation.

Requirements covered up front

Product experience, regulatory background, location, and compensation are covered early, so late-stage surprises don't stall the search.

How a search runs

Precision targeting, not job boards.

Every search is staffed by a client team, a research team, specialist recruiters, and a delivery manager who owns the outcome from kickoff to signed offer.

01

Calibrate

We start with the product, the customers, and the regulatory picture. Our client team defines the domain, stage, and compliance experience the role needs, plus compensation and location.

02

Map

Our research team maps the people doing this work at top fintechs, financial institutions, and adjacent technology companies.

03

Engage

Specialist recruiters approach passive candidates as an ambassador for your company, then interview and qualify them.

04

Deliver

Your delivery manager assesses every candidate and presents only the most qualified, then manages the process through offer and acceptance.

Why Artemis

What we can stand behind.

No borrowed logos or inflated numbers. Here is how we actually work with fintech companies.

Specialized

A dedicated fintech team

Headhunters focused on financial technology, from engineering and data to risk, compliance, and revenue.

Precision targeting

In the market, not on it

We target proven performers at top competitors and aligned companies who aren't actively searching.

Contingent

You pay for results

Our headhunters work on a contingency basis, so budgets go toward hires, not retainers.

Every level

One partner, whole org chart

The same team can fill your next executive, your engineering and sales leaders, and the niche specialists your roadmap depends on.
