Stop Guessing. Hire Technologists with Confidence.

As your expert technical panelist, I deliver rigorous, unbiased interviews for senior Java & Cloud roles. Free up your engineers and eliminate costly hiring mistakes.

Is Your Hiring Process a Bottleneck?

Hiring the right senior talent is critical, but it often comes at a high internal cost. Your best engineers are pulled into interviews, and you're still left wondering if you made the right call.

Wasted Engineering Hours

Your most valuable engineers are spending countless hours preparing for and conducting interviews instead of building your product.

Inconsistent Evaluations

Different interviewers, different questions. This inconsistency leads to biased assessments and makes it hard to compare candidates objectively.

The Risk of a Bad Hire

A candidate who talks a good game can mask deep technical gaps. A wrong hire can set your team back months and cost thousands.

The Solution: An Expert, On-Demand Panelist

I step in as your dedicated technical specialist. By outsourcing the technical vetting to a 16-year industry architect, you get a standardized, in-depth evaluation that surfaces the true capabilities of every candidate. You save time, reduce risk, and hire with data-backed confidence.
