Doghouse
Finding the leaders who scale your business.
Why us?
“After 10+ years in tech recruitment, we’ve built a network that spans the C-suite in software-driven companies: CTOs, COOs, CPOs, MDs and CEOs. Many of them are one call away. We don’t chase them cold. We already know them, have worked with them, or placed people in their teams.
That’s why companies trust us to fill leadership roles. We understand the pressure: it’s not just about hiring the next person, it’s about integrity and looking at business goals. What needs to be built, scaled or fixed? And which leader has already done it before? That requires senior recruiters who speak tech, know the market, and can match both skills and leadership style. So why us? Because we’re already in the room."
— Sebastiaan Rondhuis, CEO Doghouse
No risk & Deep market knowledge
Most executive search firms work on heavy retainers and lack deep understanding of the tech market. We do it differently. Exec in Tech combines a unique business model with true technical expertise. That means faster searches, better matches, and no upfront risk.
- No retainers, no risk: we work on a no cure, no pay basis. You only pay when we deliver.
- Network advantage: a decade of relationships with CTOs, COOs, CPOs, MDs and CEOs in tech.
- Deep tech market knowledge: we don’t just know leadership, we know software, stacks, and scaling challenges.

From CTOs to Managing Directors
The leadership layer that can make
or break your growth
Hiring an executive in a tech company is never just about the role description. It’s about matching your company goals with someone who has solved those challenges before. Whether that’s scaling engineering, driving product, running operations or steering the business. We go beyond traditional ways to find leaders who can deliver real outcomes.
- CTOs & VPs Engineering: technical leaders who scale teams and keep your tech future-proof.
- COOs & Managing Directors: operational leaders who create structure and deliver growth.
- CPOs & CEOs: product and business leaders who align vision, execution and market impact.
We know these people because we’ve worked with them for years, as candidates, clients, and part of our network. That’s why we can deliver leaders who don’t just fit the role, but fit your company.
