Meet the Team
Our team brings a wealth of experience from both small and large high-tech companies, including Atlan, Alation, Confluent, HubSpot, Synaptics, and Marvell. What truly sets us apart from traditional search firms or staffing agencies is our deep, hands-on collaborative approach with hiring managers. By leveraging this internal working knowledge, we gain a comprehensive understanding of company culture, business needs, and team dynamics, ensuring we consistently identify top talent that drives meaningful business results across all levels.
We've transformed this insider expertise into BullishIQ, a recruitment intelligence group dedicated to helping companies grow and achieve the impact they envision.
"It was my great pleasure to work with Ed Avila who helped me scale and hire a world class international sales team at Alation shortly after our Series C round of funding. During a one year period we doubled the number of Account Executives and Sales Engineers, strengthened our field management team by adding Regional Vice Presidents and a Senior Director of Field Operations, and expanded into new territories such as Europe and Australia during a hyper-growth phase of the company. Ed was a wonderful business partner who sourced outstanding talent, and he became a well trusted advisor. I hope I get the chance to work Ed again in the future."

Former CRO and Advisor
"I've been fortunate enough to work with some amazing recruiters and I would put Milani at the top of that list. She is extremely talented and well-versed in identifying exceptional talent. In our 2.5 years together she helped me hire 20 + BDRs as we scaled the team. It was not uncommon for candidates to say one of the reasons they decided to join our company was Milani. Super detail-oriented, great at multitasking, wonderful communicator, and just a joy to work with. I'd welcome the opportunity to work with her again."
