Software engineering is being rewritten in real time, and hiring is getting pulled along for the ride. With tools like Claude Code and Cursor, being able to ship is the new baseline. The signal for finding extraordinary engineers is the process: how candidates break down work, steer the agent, make tradeoffs, and recover when things break. Outship is a recruiting tool that allows you to capture and analyze that process alongside the final code so you can hire with confidence. Candidates work in

Litmus is the most accurate read on how an engineer actually builds. We evaluate candidates through async technical assessments built from your own tech context (repos, tickets, and job descriptions), generated from scratch and scoped as real end-to-end features. Candidates work in their own setup with all their tools including AI, while we track and evaluate their process and output. Every submission runs in a sandbox, and grading is tuned to your company across tool fluency, process, and outco

Our agents run hardware engineering tasks that normally take hours or days in just a few minutes, allowing engineers to process 100x more data and information. Our platform allows hardware engineers to orchestrate agents for tasks such as analyzing failures across entire test campaigns, pulling the right data and KPIs from their databases, checking how conditions (like temperature or load) affect performance and reliability, and then document findings in reports and dashboards.

Trident Bioscience builds tools to expedite the discovery and optimization of useful proteins. Our technology first applies predictive models of protein structure and function to generate sets of potentially active protein sequences. We then apply our state-of-the-art sequence optimization algorithm to design gene libraries capable of testing these candidates extremely quickly and affordably. By combining these technologies, we're closing the design-build-test loop of protein optimization and cu

Subtrace is a zero-code network tracer. It's like having an inspect element button for your whole infra: when you start a process with Subtrace, you'll see every HTTP request coming in and going out in realtime. Under the hood, it uses BPF to make this possible without any root privileges or code changes. We have ~2.5k stars on Github.

REV1 is Claude code for mechanical engineers, starting with automating the process of turning 3D designs into 2D manufacturing drawings – which is more than 25% of all of what a mechanical engineer does - our software does it in minutes. Compressing hours of work into minutes while delivering consistent, higher quality results.
