About Us
We Help Microsoft Tech Stack Leaders and Engineering Professionals
Define and Achieve Their Business Goals
Astute Search is an executive recruiting practice rooted in software engineering and IT infrastructure management.
Headquartered in Westchester, NY, our unique practice brings a systematical approach to search & placement while acknowledging the human element of changing jobs.
We’ve fostered a straightforward methodology that combines agency represented talent management, old school “headhunting”, and innovative search & recruitment techniques.
Our process is honest because we believe baiting people with résumés or job descriptions isn’t good business. So whether you want to grow your team or advance your career, we can help further your professional success.
I launched Astute in 2009 after almost a decade sourcing and matching top performing IT professionals with tech driven companies.
During my former years, I learned from and worked with some of the best in the executive search business and enabled hundreds of professionals to advance their careers. My first search assignments were helping companies hire engineers to move from VB6 to .Net 1.0. That evolved into moving C# WinForms to web services and ultimately microservices and cloud with .Net Core and Azure.
I'm grateful to have created an organization that’s connected with some very distinct companies, developed a proven methodology, and fostered a personal network of thousands in the IT community.
