Bad hires do not just slow execution. They fracture roadmaps, drain leadership time, and introduce risk compounding with every sprint. CareerDette builds recruiting infrastructure for seed through Series C+ startups where every engineering hire carries structural weight. We partner directly with founders, CEOs, and CTOs to architect hiring systems designed to support rapid scale without buckling. Every role is load bearing. Every process is engineered for durability. Every hire reinforces what you are building.
With a decade embedded in STEM communities, CareerDette understands how high-impact technical talent evaluates scope, risk, ownership, and credibility. For founders, CEOs, and CTOs, this leads to clearer role definitions, fewer misfires, and candidates aligned to the work, not just a polished job description.
CareerDette prioritizes signal over noise. We evaluate candidates based on execution patterns, decision-making ability, and stage fit, not pedigree alone. This allows hiring managers to spend time on candidates who can truly perform in role, lowering the risk of mis-hires and protecting velocity as teams scale.
CareerDette is built for environments where priorities shift and timelines compress. We maintain hiring rigor through growth stages, org changes, and external pressure, preserving momentum without sacrificing quality. Hiring remains intentional, even as the business moves fast.
