Bridging the Talent Gap in AI, Blockchain & Web3

Impax Recruitment was founded almost five years ago with a mission to solve one of the biggest challenges in emerging tech: sourcing top-tier talent in AI, blockchain, crypto, and Web3. We saw the disconnect, traditional recruiters didn’t understand the speed, complexity, or technical nuance of these spaces. So, we built an agency that does.

Our team lives and breathes the ecosystem. From smart contract developers and AI engineers to growth leads and Web3 marketers, we know what great talent looks like and how to find it fast.

Global Reach, Local Expertise

Whether you're a seed-stage startup or a scaling unicorn, we’ve got you covered. With a vast network of candidates and clients across Europe, the U.S., and the UAE, we help companies around the world build high-impact teams in AI, crypto, and decentralised tech.

Built for the Long Game

Hiring in blockchain and AI isn’t easy. The landscape shifts fast, and the noise can be overwhelming. But while others folded during bear markets or pivoted away from the space, we stayed the course, focused on delivering quality, building trust, and becoming a reliable long-term partner.

Impax: The Talent Solution Born from Experience

Working with founders, engineers, and investors revealed a common bottleneck: finding the right people. Realising traditional agencies lacked the depth to recruit in AI and Web3, Arsen and Ardit combined their networks and technical insight to launch Impax Recruitment.

Now, Impax helps companies across Europe, the U.S., and the UAE scale with precision — placing elite talent in AI, blockchain, and decentralised tech roles.

Arsen and Ardit Mataj aren’t just founders, they’re hands-on operators with a track record of seeing around corners. Together, they continue to lead Impax in shaping the future of work in AI, blockchain, crypto, and Web3.
