Every word is written by the interviewer who ran the session.

The problem

Engineering teams shouldn't have to choose between building products and conducting interviews.

Interview load is a function of hiring volume, but interview capacity is a function of engineering headcount. The two move against each other.

  1. 01

    Hiring plan grows

    More open roles enter the pipeline.

  2. 02

    Interview volume rises

    Each role multiplies into several rounds per candidate.

  3. 03

    Engineers absorb it

    Interviewing comes out of the same hours as delivery.

  4. 04

    Consistency drifts

    Different interviewers apply the bar differently.

  5. 05

    Scheduling stalls

    Calendars become the constraint, not candidate supply.

  6. 06

    Hiring slows

    The roles you opened take longer to close.

The approach

A flexible interview team that scales with your hiring.

We provide experienced interviewers when you need them, working to a framework you have agreed in advance.

Step 1

Your demand

Roles, volume and the skills that need evaluating.

Step 2

Our interviewer network

Practising engineers, matched to the requirement.

Step 3

Interview capacity

Added when you need it, without permanent headcount.

Step 4

Structured feedback

The same rubric applied to every candidate.

Step 5

Your hiring decision

Evidence your team can act on directly.

Why teams use it

What changes when interviewing stops being a side task.

Scale capacity

Add interview bandwidth when hiring demand increases, and reduce it when it doesn't. Capacity stops being tied to headcount.

Reduce engineering burden

Engineers spend more time building. The interview hour, the write-up and the context switch all come off their calendar.

Consistent evaluation

Every candidate is assessed against the same written rubric, with evidence recorded for each score.

Better candidate experience

Interviews start on time, follow a clear structure and are conducted by someone who does this regularly.

How it works

Four steps from open role to hiring signal.

01

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.

02

Tell us what to evaluate

Choose interview types and the competencies each one should test. Your criteria, applied consistently.

03

We match an interviewer

An interviewer with relevant depth, in a workable timezone, calibrated against your bar.

04

Receive structured feedback

A scored rubric with evidence, a written summary and a clear recommendation — delivered on an agreed turnaround.

Coverage

Interview types we support.

Each type carries its own rubric and competency set. Criteria can be adjusted per role.

Coding

60m

Applied programming against a realistic problem, with emphasis on working code and reasoning.

Algorithms

60m

Complexity reasoning and algorithmic decomposition on problems with more than one viable approach.

  • Complexity analysis
  • Decomposition

Data Structures

60m

Selection and trade-offs of core data structures under stated constraints.

  • Trade-off reasoning
  • Fundamentals

System Design

75m

Requirements clarification, data modelling, failure modes and explicit trade-offs at scale.

  • Architecture

  • Failure modes

Backend

60m

Service design, data access patterns, API contracts and operational concerns.

  • API design
  • Data modelling

Frontend

60m

Component architecture, state management, accessibility and rendering performance.

  • Component design
  • Accessibility

Mobile

60m

Platform fundamentals, lifecycle handling, offline behaviour and release considerations.

  • Platform depth
  • Lifecycle

Cloud

60m

Managed service selection, networking, cost awareness and operational trade-offs.

  • Service selection
  • Cost awareness

Infrastructure

60m

CI/CD, observability, incident response and infrastructure-as-code practice.

  • Observability
  • Incident handling

Quality system

Great interviews don't happen by accident.

Consistency is a process, not a promise. This is the loop that produces it.

  1. 1

    Select

    Senior engineers and engineering leaders across sectors, including enterprise backgrounds, screened by the same standard we sell.

  2. 2

    Train

    Onboarding on the rubric, the evidence requirement and candidate conduct.

  3. 3

    Calibrate

    Shared scoring exercises until interviewers agree on the same bar.

  4. 4

    Interview

    A structured, adaptive session against a written framework — one interviewer, one candidate, no recording.

  5. 5

    Review

    Sampled scorecards re-scored blind, with variance tracked per interviewer.

  6. 6

    Improve

    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

Everything you need to manage technical interviews.

Request interviews, track status, and read every scorecard in one place.

The deliverable

A decision you can act on, not a transcript to interpret.

Every interview returns scores against a written rubric, the evidence behind each one, and an explicit recommendation with a confidence level.

Candidate scorecard

HireHigh confidence
  • 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

Give your engineers their time back.

Not by removing them from hiring, but by removing the parts that don't need their judgement.
