The Technical Edge

Why top engineering organizations trust us with their critical hires.

We Read The Code

Our talent partners aren't sales people. They are technical experts who can distinguish between a tutorial-follower and a systems thinker. We review GitHub repos, architectural decisions, and clean code practices before you ever see a resume.

Zero Latency

We don't go "hunting" when you call. We maintain a warm pool of pre-vetted senior engineers ready to deploy.

Human Pattern Matching

We analyze behavioral signals to match candidates not just to the stack, but to your specific startup stage and engineering culture.

AI-Powered, Human Verified

We use proprietary LLM agents to scan thousands of data points across GitHub, StackOverflow, and open source contributions. But the final "Go/No-Go" decision is always made by a Senior Engineer.

Our Talent Partners

We don't hire generic recruiters. Our Talent Partners are Technical Screeners. They undergo a mandatory 8-week coding bootcamp to understand the fundamentals of the roles they fill.

Sourcing

They know where elite devs hang out (it's not LinkedIn). They scrape GitHub, HackerNews, and Discord.

Screening

They can conduct basic technical screens, filtering out 60% of candidates before an engineer even looks.

Closing

They understand equity, vesting, and tech market rates to ensure high offer acceptance.
