Superposition for Dev Tool Startups
Hire engineers the way dev tool founders actually evaluate talent.
Dev tool hiring needs code-level signal
- Retained recruiters.
- LinkedIn Recruiter seats.
- Keyword-matched resumes.
- Templated InMails.
Dev tool founders don't care about polished resumes. They care about what someone has shipped, contributed, and written. The engineers who will thrive at your company are visible in their GitHub history and technical writing — not their LinkedIn headlines.
Traditional recruiters miss this pool entirely. They filter on titles and years of experience and send you candidates whose best work is wrapped in a big-company NDA.
You need sourcing that evaluates the same signals you would — code, open source contributions, and voice in the community.
How Superposition works for dev tool startups
Code-level evaluation
Our agent reads GitHub, evaluates open source contributions, and surfaces community voice — the same signals you trust.
Community-aware sourcing
We source from open source maintainers, technical bloggers, and conference speakers — not LinkedIn title filters.
Founder-level intake
Our voice agent speaks the language — you don't need to translate 'dev experience' into something an account exec can pitch.
Proven in AI infra hiring

Questions.
Answered.
Traditional recruiters charge 20–30% of first-year salary and run a generic search across multiple clients at once. Our agent goes deep on just your company — researching thousands of candidates and bringing back people who are specifically a fit, not just generically good.
$500 per agent per month, plus a 15% success fee on first-year base salary only — not equity, not bonus.
Interested candidates are typically flagged within days of kickoff. Time-to-hire averages six weeks, depending on role seniority and your interview cadence.
We offer a 90-day replacement guarantee for any reason within the first 90 days.
There's an initial voice intake, usually 30 minutes, where the agent learns your company, values, and the specific shape of who you're hiring.
Superposition for Founders
You should be building your company, not sifting through resumes.
Superposition for Talent Leads
Multiply your sourcing capacity without multiplying your headcount.
Superposition for Technical Cofounders
You should be in the codebase, not LinkedIn Recruiter.
