Define the role
Share the requisition, the level and the skills that matter. We turn it into a screening matrix rather than reading resumes impressionistically.
Interview as a service
Scale engineering interviews with experienced technical interviewers, structured evaluation and consistent candidate feedback — without adding more burden to your engineering team.
For engineering and talent teams running technical hiring at volume.

Built for teams that take technical hiring seriously.
The problem
Interview load is a function of hiring volume, but interview capacity is a function of engineering headcount. The two move against each other.
More open roles enter the pipeline.
Each role multiplies into several rounds per candidate.
Interviewing comes out of the same hours as delivery.
Different interviewers apply the bar differently.
Calendars become the constraint, not candidate supply.
The roles you opened take longer to close.
The approach
We provide experienced interviewers when you need them, working to a framework you have agreed in advance.
Roles, volume and the skills that need evaluating.
Practising engineers, matched to the requirement.
Added when you need it, without permanent headcount.
The same rubric applied to every candidate.
Evidence your team can act on directly.
Why teams use it
Add interview bandwidth when hiring demand increases, and reduce it when it doesn't. Capacity stops being tied to headcount.
Engineers spend more time building. The interview hour, the write-up and the context switch all come off their calendar.
Every candidate is assessed against the same written rubric, with evidence recorded for each score.
Interviews start on time, follow a clear structure and are conducted by someone who does this regularly.
How it works
Share the requisition, the level and the skills that matter. We turn it into a screening matrix rather than reading resumes impressionistically.
Choose interview types and the competencies each one should test. Your criteria, applied consistently.
An interviewer with relevant depth, in a workable timezone, calibrated against your bar.
A scored rubric with evidence, a written summary and a clear recommendation — delivered on an agreed turnaround.
Coverage
Each type carries its own rubric and competency set. Criteria can be adjusted per role.
Applied programming against a realistic problem, with emphasis on working code and reasoning.
Complexity reasoning and algorithmic decomposition on problems with more than one viable approach.
Selection and trade-offs of core data structures under stated constraints.
Requirements clarification, data modelling, failure modes and explicit trade-offs at scale.
Service design, data access patterns, API contracts and operational concerns.
Component architecture, state management, accessibility and rendering performance.
Platform fundamentals, lifecycle handling, offline behaviour and release considerations.
Managed service selection, networking, cost awareness and operational trade-offs.
CI/CD, observability, incident response and infrastructure-as-code practice.
Quality system
Consistency is a process, not a promise. This is the loop that produces it.
Senior engineers and engineering leaders across sectors, including enterprise backgrounds, screened by the same standard we sell.
Onboarding on the rubric, the evidence requirement and candidate conduct.
Shared scoring exercises until interviewers agree on the same bar.
A structured, adaptive session against a written framework — one interviewer, one candidate, no recording.
Sampled scorecards re-scored blind, with variance tracked per interviewer.
Outcome data feeds back into anchors, questions and interviewer coaching.
The loop closes only when clients share downstream outcomes. That reporting is part of the engagement.
The platform
Request interviews, track status, and read every scorecard in one place.

The deliverable
Every interview returns scores against a written rubric, the evidence behind each one, and an explicit recommendation with a confidence level.
Senior Backend Engineer · System Design
Problem solving
Decomposed an ambiguous brief before writing any code.
Technical depth
Accurate on consistency trade-offs without prompting.
System design
Sound data model; capacity estimates needed prompting.
Communication
Narrated reasoning continuously; asked clarifying questions early.
Trade-off reasoning
Named three options and justified the one chosen.
Summary
Clears the bar for the level. Design reasoning is sound but capacity estimation needed prompting — worth a targeted probe in the final round.
Illustrative example.
For engineering leaders
Not by removing them from hiring, but by removing the parts that don't need their judgement.

The interview hour is only part of it — preparation, the write-up and the context switch back into delivery all come off the calendar too.
