Steve Yoo
Co-founder
We're loved by both our clients and candidates.
Steve Yoo was a great partner in helping us recruit our technical team for the Meta Collaboration apps team. His responsiveness to our needs and his collaborative working style enabled us to quickly build a team of system engineers and develop a process to recruit and manage the team effectively. Steve's ability to pivot the team to focus on KPIs was instrumental to our success. I’ve personally recommended Steve for executives at other companies I worked at and feel comfortable approaching him for any recruiting needs, where speed and scale are important.

Revital Padovitz
Director, Products, Meta
Steve really hones in on the “why” as well as “what” of roles to be filled. In my former position at Meta, leading a rapidly growing IT team, we asked him to find contract resources with emerging technology expertise that was net-new to the surrounding department. Sometimes we needed specialists to split across teams, and once we needed an entire team for a project. Steve put the unique aspects of our requests front and center in his efforts and was highly successful in finding specialized professionals who fit the bill.

Narae team is patient with the iterations startups have to go through when making a hire. I would recommend them to anyone looking to hire both contract and direct hire resources.

Managing Partner, Cartography Capital
I leveraged Steve to make some critical software engineering and machine learning engineering hires. Steve took the time to learn my team dynamics and made sure to incorporate that in his recruiting. At Workday, we value DE&I and Steve knew how to source for a diverse candidate pool as well. I would recommend Steve to others needing recruiting services.

Narae helped us find a great ML Engineer candidate who was a diamond in the rough for us, and we wouldn't have found this candidate on our own otherwise. We appreciate their ratio of quantity to quality and their ability to quickly calibrate.
