MCP Servers & AI Infrastructure
ADEs scope, build, and deliver MCP Servers and connectors so your AI tools securely talk to your data, APIs, and internal systems.
AI Coding Tool Deployment
Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode — configured to your stack, your CI/CD, and your team's actual workflows. Provider-agnostic.
Business Team Enablement
Specialists deploy Claude for Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, and Claude Design. Hands-on workshops, templates, and SOPs that stick.
Knowledge Transfer

Still curious? We're happy to talk.
Elios is your strategic talent partner. You have a talent problem, we solve it.
We deliver the strategic partnership you'd expect from a consulting firm without paying for their curated network. Consulting-grade quality. Staff-aug economics.
Whether you need a single specialist, an embedded team, or full project delivery, we match pre-vetted talent to your needs and back them with real support.
Staffing agencies send resumes. Consulting firms sell overhead. We solve problems.
Every engagement includes a dedicated point of contact who understands your business, not a recruiter reading a job description. Larger teams get expert oversight to keep projects on track.
Our platform surfaces better specialists faster. You track progress, shortlists, and hiring metrics in a real-time dashboard. And we only succeed when your hires succeed.
The result: 7-day average time to first qualified specialist. 1 in 3 presented gets hired.
Three ways to engage:
1. Talent On Demand: 1-2 specialists to fill a gap. You manage them. We're here when you need us.
2. Embedded Teams: You have the plan, you need the people. We staff the team and provide delivery oversight. You run it.
3. Co-Managed Resources: You need a capability but lack the bandwidth to run it solo. We define what to build, staff it, and co-manage delivery alongside you day-to-day.
You choose the model that fits. Start with one, expand as trust builds.
An AI Deployment Engineer embeds directly with your engineering team and deploys AI tools across your development lifecycle.
ADEs learn your codebase, your stack, and your workflows. They spin up proof-of-concepts, scope and deliver MCP Servers and connectors so your AI can securely talk to your data, and configure AI coding tools — Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode — to your environment.
They work alongside AI Deployment Specialists who handle non-technical teams. Together, they turn your entire organization AI-native.
Yes. We maintain deep expertise and curated specialist networks for both Palantir Foundry and Anthropic Claude.
For Palantir, our network includes certified Foundry developers, ontology architects, and platform engineers who have deployed across defense, energy, financial services, and enterprise operations.
For Anthropic Claude, we staff and deliver across the full ecosystem — from Claude API integrations to enterprise-grade agentic systems.
We also work across the broader technology landscape: AWS, Azure, GCP, Snowflake, Databricks, and more.
100-day performance guarantee. If a placement doesn't work out, we replace them at no cost.
But our real protection is built into how we work: AI matching for fit, human validation for quality, and expert oversight to catch problems early. The result is offer acceptance and retention rates that exceed industry averages.
Our primary focus is Technology & AI. That's our growth engine and where we've built the deepest expertise.
We also serve:
• Energy — engineering and operations talent
• Financial Services — data, analytics, and platform teams
• Private Equity — portfolio company operational talent
