Why a specialist firm

What makes these hires different.

  1. Assessing scientific depth

    The difficultyA thesis, papers, a model in production: a CV does not say what the person can really do.

    What we doWe assess the scientific track record as much as the ability to ship: what was built, published, put in production.

  2. Very small talent pools

    The difficultySome profiles are very few in France, often in labs or abroad, and rarely open to the market.

    What we doDirect search, in companies as well as in labs, with a precisely presented project: the scientific problem, the team, the resources.

  3. Convincing a scientist

    The difficultyA researcher chooses a problem, a team and research freedom before a salary.

    What we doWe build with you a pitch that speaks to scientists: the problem, the technology, the team, the room left for research.

FAQ

Hiring in AI and deeptech.

What is a deeptech recruitment firm?

A firm that hires for companies whose technology comes from research: AI, health, applied science. At Bluecoders, a dedicated team handles it, led by Géraud Mesnard.

Do you hire PhDs?

Yes, for research scientist, research engineer or R&D lead roles. We assess the scientific track record and the ability to move from research to product.

Do you also hire data scientists and data engineers?

Yes, when data or AI is at the core of the company's technology. For a data team in a software company, our Business & Tech Solutions team handles it.

How do you find such rare AI profiles?

Through direct search: we identify the people who have already built what you are looking for, in companies or in labs, and approach them with a specific project. A researcher responds to a problem, rarely to a job description.

How are you paid?

On success: you only pay when the candidate starts, with fees based on their gross annual salary and a replacement or refund guarantee during the trial period. For leadership roles, we work in executive search.

We are just out of the lab: which hire comes first?

Often a profile that bridges research and product: a research engineer or a technical lead who can ship. We discuss it in the first call, based on your technology and your next step.
