How it works

You're not applying.
You're being introduced.

No listings to scroll. No cover letters. No tracking spreadsheets. Here's what actually happens when you join.

01
Build your profile

Tell us what you've built, what stack you work in, and where you want to go next. Takes 60 seconds. No resume upload, no cover letter.

02
Get hand-selected

We review every profile ourselves. Only the top 5% are accepted — which is exactly why startups trust the developers we introduce them to.

03
Interviews come to you

Every Monday, hiring managers at matched companies reach out directly with interview requests — salary ranges included. You decide who gets your time.
