Building StackAI's high-impact team from scratch

Challenges and objective

  • Freeing up focus for product scaling: StackAI needed to stay focused on building and scaling their product, while outsourcing talent acquisition without losing control over quality.
  • Standing out in a competitive talent market: In a growing AI landscape, attracting top-tier tech and marketing talent required a compelling value proposition and precise targeting.
  • Hiring multifaceted, high-impact talent: They needed a Marketing Manager who could lead the function end-to-end, as well as both senior and junior engineers with strong technical skills and startup agility.
  • Ensuring strong cultural alignment: Every hire had to reflect StackAI’s DNA — proactive, adaptable, and ready to take ownership from day one.

    “Nova has been a key partner in helping us scale our team at StackAI. They understood exactly what we needed from day one — both in terms of talent and culture fit. We continue to trust them as we grow the rest of the team — their speed, precision, and deep understanding of our goals have made all the difference.”

    Solution implemented

    We partnered closely with StackAI’s founders to take full ownership of hiring, acting as an embedded extension of their team. Through our curated talent pool, we:

  • Identified a hands-on Marketing Manager — an engaged Nova member — to build their marketing function from scratch.
  • Hired a top-tier Frontend Engineer with strong technical expertise and startup agility.
  • Placed a high-potential junior Backend Engineer — a Nova 111 List winner — who was ready to grow and take ownership quickly.
  • Delivered end-to-end support — from scoping to offer — with a sharp focus on speed, quality, and cultural fit.
  • Results
