Our work with Frekuent goes back to July 2024, when the company was still called Orain. Their product sits between software and hardware: payments in unattended environments, from vending machines to laundrettes, petrol stations and electric vehicle chargers. That means their technical side is not one team but several, solving very different problems.
We started with backend. Through 2024 we helped them close several hires for that team.
In 2025 mobile joined. We brought in Android and iOS profiles while continuing to reinforce backend in parallel.
In 2026 the scope widened again. With the platform and infrastructure team we looked for their first person dedicated entirely to infrastructure, observability, monitoring and logs: a senior SRE. Then, with the firmware and hardware team, we closed a firmware hire mid-way through the second quarter. And throughout the year we have kept adding people to Android and backend. We have also worked with the data team.
More than ten technical hires spread across four departments.
What makes this case different is not the volume but the number of people we work with. In two years we have worked with very different hiring managers: the CTO himself in the early stage, the head of hardware and firmware, the backend lead, the head of data, and the head of the Android team, who in fact joined the company through us. Each with their own way of assessing and their own bar.
We have adapted to Frekuent's growth since its beginnings as Orain. When they need to hire technical talent, they count on us.
