Meed Recruitment sources hard-to-find engineers for the deep-tech roles where failure isn’t an option
Western engineering teams are facing a quiet crisis:
Aging talent, shrinking STEM pipelines, and an urgent need for roadmap-critical expertise.
As industries like aerospace, energy, automotive, and deep-tech scale rapidly, they’re running into one shared problem:
They can’t find enough high-leverage engineers to execute the roadmap.
Meed Recruitment is a boutique STEM recruitment firm specializing in roadmap-critical individual contributors (ICs) from underserved talent hubs like Turkey.
We help Western companies solve deep-tech engineering bottlenecks by mapping our ICs’ proven impact and domain expertise directly to mission-critical challenges — especially in:
🔹 Embedded Systems
🔹 DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure
🔹 Advanced Manufacturing & Robotics
🔹 Secure Systems & Real-Time Applications
🔹 A unique focus on high-leverage ICs, not job board candidates
🔹A proprietary screening process that aligns talent with your technical roadmap — not just job specs
🔹 A career enablement track with communication coaching to help our engineers thrive in global roles
🔹 Western Engineering Teams: Access rare technical talent your competitors can’t reach
🔹 High-Potential Engineers: Get the tools, support, and positioning to accelerate your global career
Why I Built Meed
Meed didn’t begin as a business plan. It began in service — helping deep-tech engineers in Türkiye navigate high-stakes interviews they were overqualified for but misunderstood in.
One case stuck with me: a process engineer interviewing with Volkswagen to support a new mega battery factory.
The job spec was generic. The interviews were confusing. But once we dug into Volkswagen’s roadmap — the scale-up velocity, the energy transition goals, the operational gaps — we realized the spec didn’t reflect the real friction.
What they truly needed was ramp-up expertise — someone who had solved scale at speed, not just someone with the right title.
That’s when I built the framework that still drives Meed today:
Shift the narrative from tech stacks and years of experience → to roadmap alignment and business impact.
That candidate didn’t just earn the offer — they helped me understand how broken most hiring is.
Meed Recruitment was born from that insight.
We don’t fill roles. We identify the friction that’s slowing teams down — and deliver the one engineer who’s already solved it.
Every campaign, every screening, every message is built around that principle.
And Meed Talk? That’s now its own layer — preparing elite Turkish engineers to speak not just English, but the language of engineering leadership.
Because the West’s labor crisis is not going away.
Deep-tech talent is aging, talent gaps are widening, and roadmap velocity is becoming a competitive advantage.
Meed exists to close that gap — with precision, narrative, and cross-border access to a passive market most firms don’t even know how to reach.
No volume. No vanity. Just clarity, velocity, and trust.
