About ThinkLabs

An AI staffing company run by engineers

ThinkLabs launched in 2022, out of Dublin, California, with a simple premise: hiring AI talent should feel like adding a great engineer to your team, not renting headcount. Our team comes from engineering, so we know what strong AI engineers look like — and we place them with US companies on contract, contract-to-hire, and direct-hire terms.

How we operate

What every client and candidate can count on

Right fit over fast fill

We'd rather send three strong candidates than ten maybes — your time in interviews matters.

Own the outcome

Every engineer we place is accountable to the metric that matters to you, not just the ticket count.

People first

Candidates and clients both get a real person, straight answers, and honest timelines.

Senior by default

No engineer joins a client team without at least 4 years shipping production systems.
