It's not true that there aren't engineers with these skills - there are thousands of them in the US and more worldwide - so if you can't hire them then either:
* you aren't looking (seems unlikely)
* there's something toxic about your team that means they'd never work for you and you should fix that (hopefully unlikely)
* you aren't paying enough to make the move worthwhile for them (seems likely as people never want to pay the going rate)
That's why I presumed salary. Double your salary and you may suddenly find you're being flooded with contacts from the compiler engineers at places like Google. If that's the case then your only problem was the compensation you were offering and not a problem with education.
