Syndesus helps U.S. tech companies scale AI teams faster — with elite, pre-vetted Canadian talent. We specialize in placing Machine Learning Engineers, Data Scientists, and AI Product Managers from one of the world’s most respected AI ecosystems — home to global research leaders like Geoffrey Hinton and Yoshua Bengio, and institutions such as MILA, the Vector Institute, and AMII. Companies choose Syndesus to reduce hiring time by 30–50%, lower costs through favorable exchange rates, and avoid the overhead of setting up a Canadian entity. Through our Employer of Record (EOR) model, we make it simple to onboard Canadian engineers legally, quickly, and compliantly. If you're trying to hire AI/ML talent and running into delays, I’m your first call. I work with technical and talent leaders every day to flag hiring signals early, understand their roadmap, and connect them with a proven path to scale faster — without sacrificing quality or burning runway.
