Amsterdam, the Netherlands
QuantFlow is Amsterdam's recruitment consultancy for quantitative trading, crypto, fintech and AI. AI-driven sourcing, human-approved fit, for firms shaping the future of digital finance.
We don't recruit for everything. We focus where digital finance, technology and alpha intersect, and we know the people before we know the spec.
All expertise →Solidity & protocol engineers, DeFi strategists, exchange infrastructure, crypto compliance and risk.
Quant researchers, algo developers, systematic PMs, low-latency engineers, market-making traders.
Payments engineers, neobanking PMs, RegTech & compliance, embedded finance, growth and GTM.
ML engineers, data scientists, NLP & LLM specialists, MLOps and AI researchers in finance.
Sourcing accelerated by intelligent tooling. Judgement and fit assessed by people who know the market. The combination is faster, sharper, and more honest than either approach alone.
How we work →No rigid packages. The right partnership for the hire, from a single executive search to a fully managed talent function.
For senior leadership and hard-to-find roles. Dedicated partner, exclusive engagement, and the depth of work a confidential search demands.
Read more →For most positions. You only pay when we deliver. Pure performance, no upfront commitment. The default for individual permanent hires.
Read more →For larger hiring plans: predictable cost, priority access, and an embedded partner who knows the team and the roadmap.
Read more →Market intel, salary signals and recruiting playbooks. Written when we have something specific to say.
