Every.io, an ambitious YC-backed fintech player, is crafting the future of AI-driven financial services. With a war chest of $9.5M and a 100-strong client list, they aimed to scale their engineering might.
The goal was to not just grow, but to infuse their ranks with specialized talent that aligns with their cutting-edge ethos. Every.io turned to Globy for an infusion of expertise.

The challenge was sourcing the right engineering minds capable of turning this vision into reality, particularly from the rich talent pool of Latin America.
Globy’s role went beyond recruitment; it was about precision talent curation, honing in on candidates who not only met the high technical bar set by Sydecar but also embodied the company ethos.
🚀 Key Outcomes:
- Recruited a dozen top-notch engineers from LatAm.
- Achieved an impressive 85% hiring success rate.
- Streamlined Sydecar’s recruitment, saving time and resources.
✨ Executive Acclaim:
"Working with Globy for the past few years has been an excellent experience. Instead of flooding me with tons of irrelevant CVs and excess process, Globy consistently hand-picked a smaller number of winners, with probably an 85% hire rate— that's phenomenal, since my bar is hella high. There's no overpromising with Globy; they tell you exactly what to expect from each person. The last team I built, in a ground-up startup, was almost all Globy; the next team I build will likely be 100% Globy-sourced. It just removes so much hassle, wasted time, and mis-hires. Compared to other recruiters we hired through, there's basically no contest."
