Robert Rhau connects companies scaling AI and engineering teams with the tech recruiters who fill the seats before the roadmap slips.
Public hiring-market data, updated as it publishes. This is the market I watch.
- →AI-infrastructure firm closes a $1.5B round with engineering headcount at the top of the spend list
- →Expedia opens a 300-seat San Jose AI hub with a third of the seats deliberately empty, waiting on hires
- →41% of active tech job postings now require AI skills or are dedicated AI roles
- →68% of organizations report being understaffed in AI/ML engineering while most are still adding roles
Sourced from funding announcements, CompTIA hiring data, and industry workforce surveys, July–August 2026.
The match, stated as a service. Here’s exactly what I put in motion.
- Scaling company → proven tech recruiter When the round closes, the req list opens, and every week a technical seat stays empty is roadmap time you don’t get back. I put a recruiter with a track record in your stack in the room the same week.
- Recruiter → the companies in hiring motion If you place engineers for a living, I bring you companies the week their funding clears or their req list doubles, not after the roles have gone stale on a job board.
