Who We Are
Founded by engineers who understand both technology and people, we've built our recruitment practice on genuine connections and technical expertise.
Why We're Different
Founded by a computer engineer who understands both technology and people, we've built our recruitment practice on a simple truth: the best hires happen when you combine technical expertise with genuine human connection. From individual contributors to C-suite leaders, we don't just fill positions—we build lasting partnerships.
We know what great looks like
Having worked in tech ourselves, we recognize exceptional talent when we see it. We understand the difference between someone who can code and someone who can architect solutions, between a manager and a transformational leader.
We speak your language
When we evaluate candidates, we're not just checking boxes. We understand the nuances of different technologies, frameworks, and the real-world challenges your team faces at every level.
We measure what matters
Every placement teaches us something. We track outcomes, gather feedback, and use real data to refine our approach—not just gut feelings.
We never stop improving
The tech world moves fast, and so do we. We constantly evolve our methods, expand our network, and stay ahead of industry trends across all roles.
We See Potential Everywhere
Just like these colorful characters, every candidate has their own unique personality, strengths, and quirks. We don't believe in cookie-cutter hiring.
Some of the best hires we've made were the "unusual" ones—the candidates who didn't fit the traditional mold but brought fresh perspectives, creative solutions, and infectious energy to their teams.
We celebrate diversity in all its forms because we know that the most innovative companies are built by people who think differently, come from different backgrounds, and bring different experiences to the table.
Embrace Uniqueness
We look beyond the resume to find the person behind it

Why We Started
Feroz Ghafoor
Founder & CEO
"I've seen too many brilliant people overlooked because they didn't fit the traditional mold. I started UpNest Talent because I believe every company deserves to find those hidden gems—the passionate problem-solvers who don't just fill roles, they transform them."
Having worked across multiple industries and witnessed firsthand how the right person can change everything, Feroz founded UpNest Talent with a simple mission: to connect exceptional human potential with companies that value it. It's not about algorithms or automation—it's about understanding people, their dreams, and finding where they can make their greatest impact.
