Async sourcing sprints for founders at pre-Series A AI startups who've already talked to 40 candidates and need 25 more who've actually shipped production ML.
// No retainer · No calls · Money back if the longlist isn't useful
You email us your ML role. We come back in five business days with a clean spreadsheet of 25 people who've actually shipped production ML. That's the whole thing.
Email the JD or paste the bullets — stack, seniority, must-ships. We confirm scope, send a Stripe link, start the Sprint the day payment clears.
You go back to building. We comb NeurIPS/ICML speaker rosters, GitHub ML contributors, arXiv authors, FAANG alumni, and YC AI batches.
25 candidates with LinkedIn, work email, GitHub, paper links where relevant, and a 1-line fit note each. You run the outreach and interviews.
Pick the one that matches what you need. No discovery calls. No negotiation. The price on the card is the price you pay.
One role, one longlist, fast.
Longer list, with outreach drafted.
Ongoing sourcing across multiple roles.
I built Bedrock the way I'd want to buy it. You have 30 minutes to read a JD, send it over, and get back to your actual job — not 30 minutes to "hop on a quick intro call." Bedrock runs entirely over email. You will never see a Calendly link from me.
I'm based in Europe. You're probably not. The timezone math doesn't work for live calls anyway.
Working async means I deliver higher-quality longlists faster than a recruiter who's spending half their day on Zoom. If you absolutely need a live conversation before buying, I'm probably not the right fit — and that's fine.
I'm Paul Fink. I run Bedrock out of a sole-member Wyoming LLC.
I narrowed Bedrock to one problem after watching the same pattern repeat: AI founders trying to hire their first ML engineer, grinding through LinkedIn at 11 PM, finding 5 people who "know Python" for every 1 who's actually shipped production ML. The market is brutal right now — every good candidate has 5 offers from big tech, and the ones who'd consider a 10-person startup aren't the ones a generic recruiter can find.
The Sprint is the smallest bet I could think of: $497, 5 days, 25 ML engineers, money back if it doesn't help. Try it once on a real role. If it works you'll probably buy another. If it doesn't you're out 5 days and nothing else.

Those are platforms — you (or someone on your team) still has to run them. Bedrock is the human who runs the search for you. If you've already got someone in-house operating a sourcing platform, you don't need us.
LinkedIn (primarily), GitHub, conference talk rosters, technical blog authors, open-source contributors, and a few private databases we maintain. We don't scrape, we don't violate platform ToS, and every profile we send you is publicly accessible.
Money back. Reply to the delivery email and say so — refund within 48 hours, no questions.
Sprint: no, you do the outreach. Pro: we draft the messages, you send. Retainer: we draft and you can either send from your account or have us send from yours.
Yes for senior GTM (sales, growth, marketing), product, and design. We're best at engineering and AI/ML — the further from technical roles, the less of an edge we have.
No. We're sourcing-only. We don't take a percentage of salary. Flat fee for the longlist and that's it.
Same day the payment clears. Stripe → instant kickoff email → 5 business days to delivery.
Cancel anytime. Email me, I'll prorate the unused weeks and refund the difference. No contract, no notice period.
