RunTime - We Get You! Information

RunTime is an engineering recruitment firm focused on critical embedded, firmware, electronics, and hardware hires. We work with founders and engineering leaders building physical products where hiring mistakes are expensive and slow to unwind. Our approach is simple: • Fix the role before recruitment starts • Identify failure risks early • Hire engineers who can own real systems, not just pass interviews Most engagements begin with a structured hiring diagnostic to pressure-test scope, expectations, and team assumptions before search. This avoids the common failure mode of hiring “one engineer to do three jobs” and discovering the problem after hardware is locked. We do not operate as a high-volume agency. We work on a limited number of searches at a time, focused on roles where judgement matters. Critical hires only. What we do • Embedded & firmware engineering recruitment • Electronics & hardware engineering recruitment • FPGA & low-level systems roles • Hiring diagnostics and role design for hardware teams Industries include medical devices, industrial systems, automotive, aerospace, robotics, energy, and IoT. How we’re different • Engineers recruiting engineers • Behaviour and systems thinking over CV keywords • Early risk identification, not late surprises • Honest feedback when a role doesn’t make sense If recruitment proceeds after diagnostic work, fees are credited.
