Technical vetting

Expert technical interviews for your own candidates

Already have candidates? Our senior engineers run structured technical interviews for you and send a clear, written scorecard, so your team can stop interviewing and keep building.

Sound familiar?

  • Engineers stuck interviewing

    Every interview takes your best people away from the product.

  • Inconsistent hiring bar

    Different interviewers, different questions, different standards.

  • No in-house expertise

    It's hard to assess a skill nobody on your team has yet.

What you get

  • Senior interviewers

    Experienced engineers who interview in your stack.

  • Structured scorecards

    The same criteria for every candidate, with clear strengths and risks.

  • Your process, your decision

    We assess; you decide who moves forward.

  • Fair to candidates

    Respectful, well-run interviews that reflect well on your company.
