Scaling the Future, One Critical Hire at a Time
At Fudo, we help AI-first founders, CTOs, and boards build elite technical teams. From Seed to Series D and beyond, we work with startups and high-growth companies to secure the rare engineers, researchers, and leaders who don’t just write code, they are actively changing the world.
Highly focused specialists, not generalists. We live and breathe AI/ML search, it’s all we do, day in and day out.
Whether you're hiring your first founding engineer or building out your LLM, MLOps, or platform team, we find talent that moves fast, scales smart, and fits your culture, because in early-stage companies, culture is code.
Precision Search for Mission-Critical Roles
In startups, every hire counts. We treat each search as a make-or-break mission, because it often is.
Our sweet spot:
-
AI engineers, from R&D to product integration
-
Founding and staff-level ML engineers

-
VP & Head of AI appointments
-
MLOps, infrastructure, and data platform engineers
We work side-by-side with technical founders, CTOs, and investors, advising on team structure, search strategy, and how to land the exceptional people.
