ANAKINE

Anakine is a headhunting firm specializing in tech and AI roles. Since 2016, we’ve been hiring on permanent contracts (CDI) for French companies with an in-house IT function: development, data, product, cloud and infrastructure, AI and machine learning, design, and tech management. What sets us apart comes down to three key points: - **One single senior contact.** The same person handles the brief, sourcing, interviews, and the presentation of the offer. Nothing gets lost between a sales team and a research recruiter. More than ten years of executive search in tech—no exceptions. - **Fixed fees, communicated before we even start.** Between €8,000 and €14,000 depending on the role, charged only upon success—no upfront payment. We also include a two-month integration guarantee, extendable depending on the candidate’s profile and the context. Where most firms charge a percentage of salary, you know the exact fee before you begin. - **A direct, tech-enabled approach.** Our recruiters are supported by proprietary AI tools that speed up the identification and qualification of candidates—the decision, however, remains fully human for every application. Searches are initiated within 24 hours, first candidates typically arrive in about five days, and on average, just three applications we present are enough to make a hire. Based in Paris, we recruit across France—onsite or remote, including well beyond the main tech hubs. Our clients range from startups hiring their first technical hire to major companies building and structuring entire teams.
