Dex Talent
AI talent agent matching software engineers with high-fit roles
About Dex Talent
Dex Talent (Dex) is a London AI recruitment company founded by CEO Paddy Lambros that operates as an AI talent agent for software engineers and technical candidates. Through voice and chat conversations the platform learns experience, motivations and career goals, then matches candidates to suitable roles while supporting research, compensation benchmarking and interview prep; on the employer side it gathers hiring-team and role insights and makes direct introductions when mutual fit is strong—positioned against AI-generated application floods and impersonal automated screening. In April 2026 Dex raised a $5.3 million Seed led by Notion Capital, with a16z Speedrun, Concept Ventures and angels including individuals from OpenAI, bringing total funding to about $8.4 million after a 2025 pre-seed, to deepen product and expand go-to-market toward US hubs such as New York and San Francisco.
