Search & Interim Management

AI is everywhere. The human factor is rare.

At Radical, we take a different approach to people who work in and with AI. Technical skills are the starting point, not the end goal - we prefer to call it craftsmanship. Just as important: the person behind the resume. That’s how we’re building a community of experienced AI professionals for whom the human factor is anything but rare.
