AI Hiring Toolkit

Hire people who actually multiply output

Use our AI-Ready Talent Scorecard to identify high-leverage candidates built for fast-moving AI and SaaS teams.

Hiring Framework

AI-Ready Talent Scorecard

Hire 3–5x force multipliers for your 10–50 person AI/SaaS team. Score each candidate 1–5 across four traits. Look for consistent 4+ scores.

The pressure is real. You're moving fast toward Series A or B. Every hire must multiply output — not add drag.
Systems thinking⚙️
Builds scalable processes instead of one-off fixes. Reduces founder bottlenecks as you grow.
Proactive problem-solving💡
Spots problems before they escalate. Brings solutions, not just status updates.
AI fluency (the 4Ds)
Delegates, drafts, debugs, and decides with AI. Uses prompting as a daily workflow.
High-leverage mindset📈
Prioritizes 10x work over 1x effort. Asks "what's the highest-value use of my time?"
