Show HN: GitHired – Find Your Next 10x Engineer

https://www.githired.tech
4•raghavbansal11•2h ago
Hey HN - today I’m launching GitHired. A hiring platform that ranks developers based on what they actually build — not what they claim on a PDF. It’s called GitHired, and here’s the core idea: GitHub > Resumes

Instead of trusting “proficient in React” bullet points, we analyze a candidate’s actual GitHub: their real tech stack

their most complex projects

how active they are

what kinds of contributions they make

which skills match your job description

and yes, we detect fake “green square farming.”

Why we built this

Because engineering hiring is broken. Resumes are inflated. Activity charts are gamed. ATS filters reward keywords, not skill. And companies end up spending weeks interviewing the wrong people. Developers deserve a fairer signal. Recruiters deserve to know who can actually build things. And teams deserve better than guessing.

We’re live today If you’re hiring engineers - or you are an engineer and want to see your “real” GitHub profile - try it. (No waitlist. No paywall surprise. Just launched.)

I’d love to hear what you think — feature requests, brutal feedback, edge cases, all of it.

Let’s fix dev hiring.

Wait, do you analyze private repos as well?
raghavbansal11•2h ago
Yes!
krishnaoza•2h ago
That's interesting. Wait, what roles can I hire for using this tool?
the_ai_guy•2h ago
This is pretty cool! A no brainer for technical recruiters!
raghavbansal11•2h ago
thanks:)

What If I as a company CEO want to hire and I have a database that I got from Linkedin with candidates github. How does the platform help me with that ?
raghavbansal11•2h ago
You can import all of your existing applicants and have them ranked on our dashboard!
nis0s•2h ago
Sounds great, how do you screen against someone who just hires someone to populate a repo for them?

The answer is you can’t. Repo activity isn’t a real way to measure anything about a person’s ability. The only reasonable thing is to hire and do 3-month probation period.

you guys should do a granola like summary for every engineer

My first reaction: This tool looks at the wrong metrics, or a small subset of possibly relevant metrics. Nothing about git activity correlates to "who can code" (as opposed to who can produce code), much less all of the skills not apparent in git repository that make a developer valuable -- 10X or "cracked" as you put it.

You call tech hiring "broken." Have you considered that trying to reduce programmer skill and value to a simple formula or metric contributes to that? Perhaps the swipe left or right mentality of "tech recruiting," adapted from the also broken dating domain has something to do with it. Recruiters and hiring managers unqualified to talk to and evaluate candidates hiding behind CYA tools -- broken.

Tech hiring does indeed look broken for people who only have their git history to sell themselves.

No employer or customer I have ever worked for would give access to their private repos for data collection. A candidate who did give such access likely broke their NDA and maybe the law. I have no public git repos, consistent with many of the professional programmers and freelancers I know. I only work in private repos owned by a company that has the resources to enforce their IP. Curious how you can assert in comments that your tool analyzes private repos.

raghavbansal11•17m ago
Activity is just a small part of how we assess their skills. Its more about the projects you've built- how complex they are, their architecture, frameworks etc.

Also we only look at your personal private repos, not organizations. A company would always store their codebase in an organization, which we don't access. And even in the case of personal repos, none of the code is stored or used in any way except to analyze complexity and get other metadata like languages, tech stack etc.

The whole point is that candidates often tailor their resumes to fit keywords from job descriptions, and we cut through all the bs to show what they've actually done, not what they say they can.

I've only really put my personal projects on GitHub, companies I've worked for have almost exclusively used non-public source control. I'm an expert in back-end systems, but I dabble in front-end stuff as a hobby, so my GitHub looks like a novice front-end developer. Do you have any thoughts on how to handle those situations?

My frequent comment on startup web pages is to support preferes-reduced-motion (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Reference/A...). It's very difficult for me to read the text with so much screen flashing.

raghavbansal11•8m ago
We’re currently focusing on startups looking to hire cracked coders, like college students or recent grads. In your case, if you've worked with some companies for a while, you might be considered a senior engineer. Not focused too much on senior devs right now, that would require different metrics and be based more on experience. That said, we do have some ideas that we're working on to go about it. Also, thanks for the note on the flashing- implementing it now
