Our story

Built by maintenance and automation leaders

“Our recruiters have worked in manufacturing. We’ve been the maintenance technician troubleshooting a production line at 2 a.m. We’ve managed maintenance departments. We know the difference between someone who can talk about PLCs and someone who can actually diagnose one.”

Most recruiters have never set foot in a plant. They match keywords. We came up through the trades and engineering ranks — as PLC technicians, controls engineers, maintenance managers and reliability leaders — and we built EAS to recruit the way we always wished recruiters would.

That authenticity is our entire advantage. When we call a passive candidate, they talk to us because we speak their language. When we present a candidate to you, it’s because we’ve technically vetted them ourselves.
