Austin Executive Search

As Austin headhunters, The Good Search regularly serves Fortune 500 companies and venture-capital-backed startups in Austin, Texas. Whether e-commerce, Adtech, Edtech, Fintech, or Healthtech, we help companies find the leadership talent they need to scale. With tech giants such as Apple, Amazon, and Google setting up major hubs in Austin, the city has become a talent pool that has grown deeper in recent years. Austin is home to Silicon Hills, where high-tech companies in enterprise software, semiconductors, corporate R&D, biotechnology, and the video game industry are reinventing technology as we know it. 

While Silicon Valley has been the epicenter of the technology industry since the invention of semiconductors, the Austin metropolitan area’s technology hub is known as Silicon Hills. Skyrocketing housing costs, high tax rates, and stricter regulations in the San Francisco Bay Area have led to an exodus of tech companies. Ever since Oracle moved its headquarters to Austin, Texas, in 2020, a growing number of Silicon Valley companies have made Austin their home. In 2020 alone, more than 35 companies relocated to the Austin area or opened new facilities there, according to the Austin Chamber of Commerce.
