Process

Fifteen days, four conversations.

We hate slow loops as much as you do. Every role follows the same arc — an intro, a take-home or paired session, a panel, and an offer. We give written feedback either way, usually within 48 hours of a decision.

01

Intro · 30 min

Hiring manager walks you through the team, the work, and the comp band. No HR screening filler, no aptitude tests.

02

Craft · 90 min

Pair on a real ticket from our backlog or a focused take-home. We pay for the take-home version — your hourly rate or our internal one, whichever is higher.

03

Panel · 2 hrs

System design plus a values conversation with two future teammates. Calibrated rubric, written notes, you see the scorecard if you ask.

04

Offer · same week

Numbers verbal first, then in writing. Reference checks happen in parallel, not as a blocker. Joining bonus negotiable.
