We help founders and C-suite hire leaders and high-impact engineers who ship, scale, and set the culture.
How we Can Help
At WorkInAI.global, we partner with AI startups, scale-ups, and enterprise innovation teams to hire senior leadership and top-tier engineering talent across applied AI, ML platforms, data infrastructure, safety & evaluation, and AI-enabled products.
What we’re known for:
Tight shortlists, not long lists
Curated, interview-ready intros in weeks, not months.
Operator-grade, due diligence
We score execution, not just keywords.
High signal, low noise
Every introduction has a clear “why now / why them.”
If you want fancy slideware, there are plenty of agencies. If you want people who move the roadmap that’s us.

How We Work
What Clients Can Expect
Senior intros fast (without spraying the market).
Real-world references that test for execution, not just “nice to work with.”
Candid advice if the spec won’t land the person you want, we’ll say so and fix it.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (for grown-ups)
We don’t treat DEI like a checkbox. We design searches to expand the funnel without lowering the bar: broader source pools, structured interviews to reduce bias, scorecards anchored to outcomes, and shortlists that reflect the market while optimizing for excellence
We hire across Europe, the US, and APAC. Remote-first, hybrid, or on-site — we calibrate to your operating model and time zones.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of companies do you work with?
AI-native startups, product-led scale-ups, and enterprise teams building real AI capabilities (not just slide decks).
Can you help outside pure AI roles?
Yes we hire adjacent leadership where AI is core to the roadmap (Product, GTM, Operations).
What if we’re not sure what the role should be?
We’ll help you design it outcomes, interfaces, and a realistic comp & seniority band.
How fast can you move?
Fast and focused. We won’t waste a single interview slot.
Contingent or retained?
Typically retained or exclusive quality and accountability matter. If you need a hybrid, we’ll be straight with you on trade-offs.
