Discovery infra to find remote developers, powered by AI! 🚀

Hiring developers has always been a mess. The biggest challenge - filter out the great ones from the noise. To be honest, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack.

Most of us have been using DS problems to narrow down the funnel. This helped with 2 thing: qualify intent and filter for problem solving skills. So far, it did the job.

BUT in 2024, all developers will be solving these coding challenges using AI. Much quicker & they can go to the next rounds.

This is extremely challenging for companies because they’ll have a much wider middle of the funnel → which means more interviewing bandwidth to find the right people.

We’re building a database where developers are vetted & matched by AI & you see the most relevant profiles. All of this for $375 / month subscription & $0 recruitment or platform fee.

No sourcing, auto-matching using AI - for a fixed yearly cost! Hire as many as you like.

Problem


Hiring good developers is becoming harder everyday!

It takes 26 first rounds of interviews to find the right developer to join the team!

The amount of time going into sourcing is huge as well! This shouldn’t be done by a human being in 2024!

How do we curate developers?


  1. DSA Coding Assessment

A 30-minute online coding assessment to check the developer’ skills, eligibility and if they’re a good fit.

  1. Interview round

The interview round will assess the developer’s experience suited for job opportunities.

  1. Take Home Assessment

We further evaluate a developer’s coding skill from a take-home assessment submitted via Github.

  1. Profile made live on Pesto

The developer’s profile gets approved on the platform, based on proof of work. Their projects, open source repos or articles are all described well in their profiles.

How does it work?


  1. Developers create their profiles on Pesto & do a take home assignment

  2. Pesto uses AI to analyze their code & create a detailed report

  3. Companies upload the job description on the platform (or write a prompt)

  4. Our model understands the JD & finds the most probable matches

  5. Recruiters view a detailed profile completely based on proof of work

  6. Recruiters schedule a 15 min call to get introduced & pitch the role

No more “running unlimited queries / filters on a dead database”. Never make a call to someone who’s not on the market or isn’t relevant for the role. Here’s how it works:
