I'd been quietly looking for six months. Standout texted me about a Seed I'd never heard of, sent the founder a one-paragraph pitch about me, and I had a call booked the next day. Signed two weeks later.

1.The flow
Hey Sami — where do you see yourself in 12 months?
Founding eng at a Series A. 6–12 people, infra-heavy.
On it. Scouting infra-heavy Series A teams now.
2.Built for talent
Always-on scouting, fully private, and a quiet bar that founders trust.
Always-on scouting across public roles and the off-market ones — coverage in EU 🇪🇺 and US 🇺🇸, while you keep building.
You stay invisible to companies until you accept an intro. You decide who knows you’re open — and when.
We’re selective. Founders open every intro because the bar stays high — and that’s the leverage you keep.

04Why an agent, why now
The roles that matter open and close in weeks, before they ever hit the market. You can’t scout full-time. Standout works the back-channel until the right intro lands.
