13 years across medtech, industrial tech, and software in Sweden and the UK. I've run MSP programs at Baxter, recruited senior engineers at Hitachi Energy, spent years on the inside at Sweco Industry, and built tech teams at Lightbringer and Intui. I know the difference between a CV that looks right and a candidate who actually is.
Vinge Talent is a one-person engineering search firm based in Malmö, run by Skender Maloku. Before Vinge Talent, I spent 13 years across medtech, software, and industrial tech — running MSP programs at Baxter, part of the team implementing MSP at AstraZeneca, several years as interim at Sweco Industry, senior engineering recruitment at Hitachi Energy, and tech team builds at Lightbringer and Intui. SE and UK operating reach.
Senior engineers and engineering leaders. Nothing else. That focus means sharper candidate pools and faster time-to-hire.
Pre-qualified for technical fit, business logic, and culture before you ever see a CV. If I can't get to two strong candidates, I'll tell you why.
Every search is run by me from brief to placement. No junior researchers, no handoffs.
"I started Vinge Talent because most engineering search in Sweden is built around CV throughput, not business logic. The companies quietly winning the talent war work with operators who understand their tech stack, their org design, and the specific shape of the role they're hiring for. That's the work."

Skender understood our tech stack and company culture from day one. He didn't send us ten CVs — he sent us two, and both were exceptional hires.
We go deep on your role, team, tech stack, and culture — not just the job description. The better we understand, the better we hire.
A targeted candidate list through direct outreach, network mapping, and market intelligence — not just job board posting.
