How we handle engineering searches for Texas employers
Our work begins with your technical requirements, your business goals, and the culture of the team a new engineer will join. Our founder, Bradley Fortney, brings decades of engineering expertise and manufacturing management experience, so we understand the environments you hire for firsthand. That background shapes how we evaluate candidates: we look for technical ability, innovation, and adaptability, not just a matching job title. You can read more about our background on our About page. We aim to connect you with professionals who can contribute to your success over the long term, and that goal guides every search we take on for our Texas Engineering Recruiters clients.
When you work with Texas Engineering Recruiters who know the technical side of the job, the conversation about a role gets more specific and more useful. We ask about tooling, process constraints, reporting lines, and the problems the new hire will be asked to solve, then we screen candidates against those details.
Search options that match your scope and urgency
We offer retained search, contingency search, and contract staffing, so you can choose the structure that fits the complexity of the role. Retained search gives you a dedicated effort aimed at hard-to-find, specialized engineers. Contingency search opens our recruiting network to you, with compensation due only when you hire a candidate we present. Contract staffing supports project-based work and rapid expansion, and you can see the kinds of employers we serve on our Clients page.

Not every role is open at every moment, but we can discuss the position you need to fill. If your opening sits at the edge of these categories, our Texas Engineering Recruiters can still tell you whether we are the right fit.
What you can count on when you hire with us
You can count on a recruiter who understands engineering work, not a generalist working from a keyword list. We tailor each search to your technical needs and organizational goals, and we pay attention to how a candidate will grow with your team. We make no promises we cannot back up, and we tell you plainly what we see in the market. That straightforward approach is what you should expect from Top Dog Engineers, LLC and from our Texas Engineering Recruiters team.
Hiring managers across Texas tend to value a clear point of contact and honest feedback on candidate quality. Our Texas Engineering Recruiters give you both, along with shortlists built around the requirements you set rather than a stack of loosely matched resumes.
