Focus areas

Deep in cyber security. Just as serious about the tech around it.

Cyber security recruitment since 2018, alongside broader tech recruitment since 2017. Staying focused on a few areas means going deep instead of wide. Conversations that don’t start from zero, and knowing who to call when a search calls for them. Here’s where that shows up:

Cyber & Information Security

From hands-on engineers to leadership roles, across governance and compliance, offensive and defensive security, application security, architecture and operations.

Data & AI

From data engineers to data scientists, across data architecture, ML, and AI.

Software Engineering

From hands-on developers to technical leadership, across full-stack development and quality assurance.

Cloud

Cloud architects and engineers, from hands-on builds to infrastructure strategy.

Kind words

From the people we’ve worked with.

“Very convenient and appreciated for me as a recruiting manager.”
★★★★★

We have worked with Tiobit for senior security roles and always found great candidates. I especially appreciate the full service and handling of the hiring process: proactive candidate sourcing and selection, interview coordination, diversity of candidates, professional communications and timely responses. Very convenient and appreciated for me as a recruiting manager. Thank you Henna and Tiobit for great collaboration and hiring experience from both candidate and hiring perspective.

“She asks the right questions, challenges when needed and is never afraid to share her honest perspective.”
★★★★★

Henna has been a trusted recruitment partner in several highly challenging searches, including Senior Data Scientist and Senior Full-Stack Developer roles for our AI team. What stands out most is her deep understanding of our organization, technology landscape and culture. She asks the right questions, challenges when needed and is never afraid to share her honest perspective. Henna clearly has a genuine passion for recruitment and pursues top talent with remarkable persistence. She is a trusted partner whom I would highly recommend for even the most demanding recruitment assignments.

Kaisa HolantiHead of Talent Acquisition & Employer Branding
“I’ll definitely work with Henna again in my career, whether I’m looking for my next role or hiring for a team.”
★★★★★

I’ve worked with Henna both as a candidate and as a hiring manager. As a candidate, it was the best experience I’ve had with a recruiter in my career. She always kept me in the loop with regular check-ins and proactively followed up with companies on my behalf. I felt she genuinely cared about finding the right fit for me.

As a hiring manager, I worked with Henna to fill my entire team within a few months. She helped us hire three senior engineers for my team and another two for sister teams. She understood what we needed and found strong, driven engineers with the technical background to match. We ended up hiring most of the candidates she introduced.

Tuomas KuusistoLead Software Engineer
“Having someone genuinely in my corner made it so much easier to handle.”
★★★★★

Henna found me a role as a senior security consultant that was a great fit at the time, gave me several strong options to consider, and helped me negotiate good terms with my new employer. She kept the whole process organised, start to finish.

FAQ

Fair questions, straight answers.

What does it cost?

We work on a success fee: you get invoiced once the candidate starts with you. The rate is either a percentage or a fixed fee, depending on the role and how many roles you’re hiring for. We agree on it together before the search starts, so there are no surprises.

How long does a typical search take?

First candidate introductions usually happen within 1–2 weeks. From there, depending on your hiring process, the full process takes 4–6 weeks on average.

What happens if the hire doesn’t work out?

It’s rare, but if the hired person leaves within the guarantee period, the search reopens at no extra cost. Every placement comes with that guarantee.

Do you use the same process for every client?

We have a process in place, but it’s flexible and shaped around your needs and situation. Every search still starts by defining what you need together.

Can you search even if we already have a job ad running?

The two can run side by side. We work discreetly and always confirm that a candidate hasn’t already applied through the ad to avoid any overlap.

I’m a candidate. Is it really confidential?

Nothing about you goes anywhere without your explicit go-ahead. Most conversations are simply about what you’d want next, whenever that day comes.

Do you place freelance or contract roles?

We focus on permanent hires only.
