What makes this sector hard

  • Signal is buried in the CV

    Great engineers describe impact in prose, not keywords. The rubric extracts architecture calls, systems owned and scale handled.

  • Stack fit vs transferable skill

    Stacks look similar on paper. We calibrate to the exact languages, frameworks and clouds the role needs, and flag adjacencies.

  • Volume vs precision at every level

    Junior funnels flood inboxes; senior searches stall. Rubrics tuned per level surface the seniority and specialisation you're hiring for.

  • Remote, hybrid and on-site trade-offs

    Every tech role has a location model. It becomes a first-class filter so time-zone mismatches never reach shortlist.

The evidence we score against

Every candidate is scored against the role's rubric, and every score points back to a specific line in the CV. For technology, these are the signals that carry weight:

  • Rubric per role level
  • Technical-evidence validation from the CV
  • Ranked shortlist in your workspace

Certifications and credentials that matter here

  • AWS Solutions Architect
  • AWS DevOps Engineer
  • GCP Professional Cloud Architect
  • Azure Solutions Architect Expert
  • CKA / CKAD
  • OSCP
  • CISSP

Regulatory and compliance requirements

  • SOC 2 program experience for platform/security hires
  • PCI-DSS scope experience for payments-adjacent engineers
  • HIPAA-aware handling for healthtech engineers
  • GDPR-aware data handling for EU/UK-facing systems

What your shortlist looks like

  1. A ranked set of candidates, each with a score and the evidence behind it.
  2. Eligibility checks resolved before the candidate reaches you — right to work, credentials, location model.
  3. Salary expectation against your band, stated plainly, before you invest interview time.
  4. One decision per candidate: advance, hold or decline, reversible for a short window.

Candidates stay invisible to you until we've reviewed them for your specific role, and contact details are released as a separate step.
