How We Reduce Mis-Hires

  • Must-have skills vs can-learn skills
  • Environment: stack, scale, delivery cadence, on-call expectations

High-signal validation

  • Evidence of shipping, not just tooling familiarity
  • Platform awareness: deployment, failure modes, cost tradeoffs
  • Communication patterns that fit your working style
