Disruptor in Chief

I'm Jessica Smith, the founder, and I'm on a mission to burn down the old playbook of tech recruitment.


With over 10 years of experience, I've seen the dumpster fire that is the industry.


Tired of the same old recruitment BS?


Join the revolution.


Savant isn't just another agency. We're the antidote to the chaos.


Our competitors are throwing resumes at the wall hoping they'll stick, without a clue about the technical side.


We've heard it all: the ghosting, the mismatches, the messes they've left behind.


That's why we're the clean-up crew. We're the ones who actually care about quality.


We're doing things differently.


Founders and executives are tired of being treated like a number, of hiring agencies that aren't true business advisors. Does this hit home for you?


We're here to disrupt that. We're data-backed, results-driven, and committed to getting your organization leaner and meaner.


We understand the pain points in your engineering department.


Are you struggling with:


  • Technical skills gaps that hinder project execution and innovation?
  • Outdated technologies that limit your team's efficiency and scalability?
  • Complex legacy systems that are difficult to maintain and modernize?
  • A lack of collaboration and knowledge sharing among team members?
  • Engineering constantly being pulled out of production to technically test candidates that may come in and fail, eating up their day and bottlenecking your business?


We've been there, and we know how to fix it.


Our data-driven approach ensures that we match the right talent to the right roles, every time.


We'll help you identify and address technical skills gaps, evaluate and upgrade your technology stack, modernize legacy systems, and foster a culture of collaboration.


Ready to rock with a disruptor that hates the status quo?


Outside of finding top talent, I'm fueling my passions.

I'm a fitness enthusiast, always looking to push my limits.


When I'm not in the gym, I'm probably in the kitchen, experimenting with new recipes.


Personal growth is a constant journey.  I'm always seeking out new knowledge and diving deep into self-development, whether that's toying with or researching new technology, diving deep into data analysis, and setting new intentions and goals for myself.


Currently, I'm hooked on Alex Hormozi's "The Game" podcast. It's a game-changer.


P.S. I launched a podcast earlier this year called TAKEDOWN - we brought on some stellar guests in the tech industry like Adam Robinson, Jonathan Christensen, Lisa Nicolaou, and Todd Bissett. TAKEDOWN throws a molotov cocktail at the status quo in Technology and Business.
