Why We Are Different
Why Arsenal Pulse Stands Out in Recruiting
At Arsenal Pulse, recruiting starts with mission. Our experienced team focuses on quality over quantity by identifying outliers with purpose and working alongside the companies building the technologies and defenses that strengthen our nation.

Precision Over Volume
We don’t chase numbers or flood inboxes with resumes. Instead, we take on fewer searches and dedicate deep focus to each, ensuring every candidate we present is highly relevant.

Alignment With Mission
We don’t partner with just anyone. Instead, we align with missions we believe in, creating deeper value and long-term results together.

High-Touch Partnership
We don’t take a hands-off approach. Instead, we stay closely engaged, guiding each search with care and accountability

What Our Allies
Say About Us


Mike quickly understood the candidates we were looking for and delivered multiple exceptional senior hires. His ability to match standout, mission-driven talent with organizations like ours makes Arsenal Pulse an invaluable partner.


The moment Mike said he was starting Arsenal Pulse I knew we had to be his first clients. Building predictability into a talent engine is Mike’s superpower. He’s pragmatic, data driven, and founder fluent. He knows when to push, when to listen, and how to build confidence in a scaling team. It feels less like bringing on an external firm and more like gaining a partner who bets on your people as much as you do.


Mike is extremely insightful, well connected, diligent, and fundamentally gets results. I wouldn't recommend 95% of recruiters, but I'd gladly work with Mike for my hiring needs as I scale my startup.


Seeing Mike launch Arsenal Pulse is exciting because I know exactly what kind of impact he can deliver. He transformed recruiting for us at The Boring Company, and now he’s making that expertise available to more companies. For any organization trying to grow fast and smart, Arsenal Pulse will be a game-changer.


Arsenal Pulse helped us recruit Tom Mancinelli as our Head of Federal Strategy and Policy which was a game changing hire for our company. They surfaced and secured a former Undersecretary of the Navy at our company that was a Series A startup at the time. I strongly recommend other founders partner with Arsenal Pulse as they scale their team.
Our clients validate our approach by showing the impact of mission-ready talent in critical roles. Their words highlight the trust we build and the difference it makes when recruiting aligns with mission.
