Most hiring teams waste weeks on candidates who look good on paper but can't do the job. Cordova's IT recruiting team is made up of dedicated specialists — not generalists — who speak the language of technology and run a proven screening process so every profile you see is genuinely qualified.

Dedicated IT recruiters, not generalists

Every IT search at Cordova is led by a recruiter who understands the technology — the difference between React and Vue, what a real senior engineer looks like, and which candidates are genuinely a fit versus padding their resume. Our proven screening and interviewing process ensures you never waste time on an unqualified candidate.

Roles we place

We recruit across the full technology stack — from individual contributors to senior technical leaders.

  • Software Engineers

    Frontend, backend, and full-stack engineers across modern frameworks and languages.

  • Architects & Tech Leads

    Solutions architects, enterprise architects, and technical leads who drive design decisions.

  • Data & Analytics

    Data engineers, data scientists, BI developers, and analysts who turn data into decisions.

  • DevOps & Cloud

    DevOps engineers, cloud architects, and platform engineers across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

  • QA & Testing

    Manual and automation QA engineers who protect quality at every stage of delivery.

  • IT Management

    IT Directors, managers, and project leads who keep operations running and teams aligned.

Three ways to hire

We work around your timeline, budget, and risk tolerance.

  • Direct Hire

    Permanent placements for roles you need to own long-term. We manage the full search — sourcing, screening, coordination, and close.

  • Contract

    Engineers available now for fixed-term or open-ended engagements. Ideal when you need to move fast or scale around a specific project.

  • Contract-to-Hire

    Start contract, convert on fit. Reduce hiring risk by working with an engineer before making a permanent commitment.
