Jonathan Raude, Co-founderStartups and rapidly growing technology companies across the U.S. are competing for engineers against top AI labs and tech giants that can offer compensation, equity and benefits many growthstage businesses cannot match. The result is a tighter domestic talent market and companies spending months trying to make critical hires.
Miami-based Resourceful Talent Group (RTG) gives them another path.
RTG has built deep, trusted networks of highly skilled engineering talent across Europe and Latin America, giving U.S. companies access to proven engineers they might otherwise never reach. RTG knows these markets, understands where the strongest talent sits and has spent years building relationships with engineers who can perform at the level U.S. technology companies expect.
“The integration is amazing. They function as a seamless extension of our in-house group,” says Steve Kalalian, Founder and CEO of CoCreativ, a creative production company serving leading brands, retailers, agencies and entertainment companies.
“We’re giving ambitious startups access to another world of exceptional talent,” says co-founder Jonathan Raude. “We know technology, we know the quality and we can help them build quickly with elite talent that hits the ground sprinting.”
RTG typically presents qualified talent within two to three days and engineers land with teams in roughly 10 to 14 days. For growth companies, the model means more high-quality engineering capacity, greater speed and more capital preserved for the business.
But RTG’s role starts before the search.
The team prides itself on working in a highly personalized consultative fashion. That involves understanding the business, product, stage, roadmap, leadership and what needs to get done. Sometimes, founders know exactly who they need. Other times, they know the outcome and want guidance on how the team should be structured.
Having worked with dozens of startups, RTG has seen companies grow from bootstrapped beginnings through multiple funding rounds and rapid scale. That experience helps the firm advise based on what it has seen work and fail.
One recent engagement involved an AI-native startup whose founders had spent roughly a year building the initial product largely through AI-assisted development. They had proven demand with about 10 early B2B customers, but reached the point where the product and codebase could no longer scale effectively.

We’re giving ambitious startups access to another world of exceptional talent. We know technology, we know the quality and we can help them build quickly with elite talent that hits the ground sprinting.
One recent engagement involved an AI-native startup whose founders had spent roughly a year building the initial product largely through AI-assisted development. They had proven demand with about 10 early B2B customers, but reached the point where the product and codebase could no longer scale effectively.
“The founders proved the idea,” says Raude. “Our job was to put the engineering organization around it so they could turn that idea into a scalable business.”
That is often where RTG’s relationship with a company begins, not where it ends.
Many clients first engage RTG for software engineering. As they grow, their needs expand into product, go-to-market, operations, finance, accounting, HR and other critical functions. By then, RTG already understands the company, its leadership, culture and priorities.
CoCreativ is one example of that model in practice. Across its portfolio of companies, RTG has supported hiring across technology, go-to-market, customer service, design and leadership. While large, established companies can rely on major staffing firms for any hiring need, smaller growth companies rarely receive that same level of coordinated support. It is unusual for a boutique firm like RTG to offer that same breadth across job functions, hiring models and onshore, nearshore and offshore talent. Instead, growing companies often piece together hiring across multiple agencies, vendors and their own internal teams.
“We saw a real void in the market,” Raude says. “We’ve built RTG to give early-stage and growth companies the kind of comprehensive and flexible talent support that large recruiting firms typically provide to major enterprises, but with the personalized attention of a boutique partner. Regardless of the role, hiring model or geography, our clients know they can come to us and we have them covered.”
