Hiring your first few team members can make or break your startup—but most early-stage founders don’t know where to begin, or waste time using broken playbooks from big tech companies.


In this session, I’ll work with you 1:1 to design your hiring engine from scratch:


✅ Craft magnetic job descriptions that attract the right candidates

✅ Structure lean but effective interview loops (even without full teams)

✅ Build a sourcing + outreach strategy (that doesn’t rely on brand)

✅ Learn how to evaluate for potential, not just past credentials

✅ Avoid the early-stage hiring mistakes that slow down 90% of startups


Whether you’re making your first hire or stuck scaling from 3 to 10 engineers, this call will help you save time, reduce hiring anxiety, and create a system that compounds.


Who it's for:

Founders, early hiring managers, or anyone hiring for their first few technical roles.


Optional: Bring your job description or hiring flow—we’ll live-review and improve it together.
