Pitch N Hire's executive search helps Strasbourg, France companies hire senior engineering and leadership roles — heads of engineering, architects, and functional leaders — through a discreet, research-led process. PNH maps the market, approaches passive candidates and runs structured assessment, so a Strasbourg business fills business-critical leadership roles with rigour rather than relying on inbound applications.
Executive search is a targeted, research-led method for hiring senior and hard-to-fill leadership roles, where the best candidates are usually employed and not actively applying. Instead of posting a job and waiting, Pitch N Hire maps the relevant talent market, discreetly approaches qualified passive candidates, and runs structured, evidence-based assessment against the role's real requirements. This is used for engineering leadership, architecture, and specialist senior roles where a wrong hire is expensive and confidentiality matters. PNH's search process pairs experienced recruiters with structured interview tooling to keep the assessment consistent and defensible, whether the role is based locally or leads an offshore team.
We work with you to define the mandate — responsibilities, the outcomes the leader must deliver, and the competencies and experience that predict success in your context.
PNH researches and maps the relevant talent market, building a longlist of qualified people in comparable roles at comparable organisations — including those not actively looking.
Candidates are approached confidentially and professionally, protecting your employer brand and the candidates' current positions while gauging genuine interest and fit.
Interested candidates go through structured, evidence-based interviews and scorecards against the success profile, so the shortlist is comparable and defensible, not gut-feel.
You interview a small, high-quality shortlist; we support referencing, offer negotiation and a careful close, given how much a senior hire matters.
Research-led search suits senior and business-critical roles where a mis-hire is costly:
Strasbourg's defining feature is its position on the Rhine, opposite Germany, which fuses the local market with the Franco-German economic corridor and gives it a genuinely bilingual, cross-border character. It hosts EU institutions including the European Parliament, a notable biotech and life-sciences cluster, and industrial software demand shaped by nearby German engineering firms. Talent is capable and internationally minded, though the mid-sized pool tightens for specialised software roles.
Strasbourg talent is often bilingual French-German, an unusual asset for companies serving both markets, with strengths in life-sciences software, industrial and enterprise systems, Java and data engineering — supported by the University of Strasbourg and cross-border recruiting from Baden-Württemberg. Its EU-institutional and biotech base gives it a distinctive, compliance-aware engineering culture rather than a pure-startup one, so fast-moving product roles can be harder to source locally.
Strasbourg developer pay usually runs below Paris and can be pulled upward by proximity to higher-paying German employers — senior engineers often in the region of EUR 44k–EUR 66k gross. To manage cross-border wage pressure and scale delivery, Strasbourg firms frequently combine local bilingual hires with offshore India-based engineers through PNH for broader application work.
For Strasbourg employers navigating a competitive cross-border wage market, PNH builds offshore capacity from vetted India-based engineers, employed via an Employer of Record on Central European Time overlap. Local bilingual and life-sciences specialists stay focused on Franco-German-facing and regulated work, while general application and data delivery runs offshore — with no French payroll entity to create.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Strasbourg team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
