Why we exist
Generalist recruitment agencies that "do some tech on the side" produce the same outcome over and over: keyword-matched résumé blasts, interview slots wasted on candidates who cannot pass a basic system-design conversation, sponsorship questions raised at offer stage instead of intake, and a different recruiter on every email. The search stalls, the hiring manager loses patience, and the agency starts over.
Dream Chase Technology was set up to do the opposite. We are a specialist desk: software engineering, cloud and platform, data and AI, cybersecurity, product and design. Every recruiter has run hundreds of stack-specific reqs and knows the difference between a senior Python engineer and a staff one, between dbt and Airflow, between AppSec and GRC. We screen on the actual bar you set, not on keywords.

How we vet
Every candidate goes through:
- Right-to-work / work-authorisation confirmed before introduction
- References (current and previous) where available, and background-check readiness
- Current location, time zone, in-office expectation, and shift fit where applicable
- Total comp expectations in USD, with realistic on-target bonus or commission where applicable
- Notice period, start-date realism, competing offers in flight
- Discipline-specific technical or operational screen as the niche requires
- Behavioural / cultural-fit interview tailored to the role and the hiring manager’s standards
- For senior or leadership roles: scoped case discussions and backchannel references where useful
Who we work for
Our clients span founder-led businesses, scale-ups, PE-backed companies, mid-market and Fortune-relevant employers in our niche. We work with hiring managers, owners, MDs and HR leads who would rather invest 45 minutes in a good intake than three weeks cleaning up a bad one.
How we think about a placement
A successful placement is not a signed offer letter. It is the moment six months later when the new hire is still there, the team trusts them, and the manager has stopped thinking about replacement. That is the only outcome that matters to us, and the only one we measure ourselves against.
Our values, the short version
- Niche-led screening, always. If we cannot articulate why a candidate matches the bar, we do not send the résumé.
- Tell the truth. If the comp band is light or the brief is unrealistic, we say so before sourcing.
- One partner, end to end. Same person from intake to onboarding follow-up.
- Confidentiality is default. No naming, no leaks, no surprises with competing employers.
- Stand behind the work. Free replacement on every permanent placement. No clawback games.
