Kyle Gauntlett

Executive Recruitment Consultant

Kyle is an Executive Recruitment Consultant at Darwin Recruitment, specialising in the US Defense market across hardware, systems, and engineering-led technologies.
He’s worked alongside teams delivering complex, mission-critical systems, which has naturally progressed into supporting highly engineering-driven environments in defense.
He recruits across core engineering domains including RF & Communications Systems, Electronic & Hardware Architecture, Mechanical & Mechatronic Systems, Navigation & Embedded Power Systems, as well as specialist areas such as EMC/EMI and Thermal engineering for ruggedized electronics.

His focus is on niche, high-impact engineering talent across electronics, RF/communications, power, navigation, and systems hardware – the roles that are hardest to hire and most critical to platform performance.

Previously, he spent 3+ years delivering DevOps and Cloud SME talent across the UK and Europe, supporting start-ups, scale-ups, and FTSE 100 organisations. This experience gives him a deep understanding of high-growth environments, technical evaluation, and the pace required to scale advanced engineering teams.

Clients work with him for targeted access to scarce technical talent and insight into competitive markets.

Candidates work with him for guidance on cutting-edge defence opportunities and long-term career alignment.
