INDUSTRY · SOFTWARE / TECH

Built for tech teams that hire technical talent at speed.

From seed-stage startups screening their first 10 engineers to public SaaS companies running 100+ technical roles in parallel, Taskflow Recruit handles first-round technical screening across full-stack, infrastructure, ML, mobile, and security — without burning your engineering manager's calendar.

THE PROBLEM

Engineering hiring is the bottleneck, not the budget.

Most tech companies don't have a budget problem. They have a calendar problem. Your eng managers are the scarcest resource in the building, and you're spending them on first-round chats with candidates who shouldn't have made it past the resume.

Meanwhile, your best candidates are interviewing at three other companies in parallel — and the one that schedules round two fastest gets the offer in front of them first.

Speed is the moat. Eng-manager time is the cost.

THE FIX

Technical screening that respects everyone's time.

  • Role-tuned question banks: backend, frontend, infra, ML, mobile, security, data, distributed systems
  • Difficulty adapts to candidate seniority (IC2 vs. Staff vs. Principal)
  • Native integration with Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, GoodTime
  • Pre-screens for stack alignment, system design fluency, and resume-claim verification
  • Flags candidates for take-home / live-coding handoff (your existing platform: HackerRank, CodeSignal, custom)
  • Built for the velocity of high-growth tech: instant ramp on new roles, no script rewriting

THE PROCESS

How tech hiring flows with Taskflow.

  1. STEP 01
    Resume in

    ATS webhook fires the moment a qualifying engineer applies.

  2. STEP 02
    Technical screen

    Role-tuned, adaptive depth based on stated seniority — IC2 to Principal.

  3. STEP 03
    Score card to eng manager

    Depth, clarity, rubric alignment delivered before round two is scheduled.

  4. STEP 04
    Round two or coding challenge

    Eng manager (or automated rule) handles next step — interview slot or HackerRank handoff.

FAQ

Questions we get every week.

Can you screen for our specific stack?

Yes. Tell us your stack on the scoping call; we'll confirm coverage and tune the question bank.

How do you handle ICs vs. managers vs. ICs-with-management-aspiration?

Different rubrics. Engineering manager candidates get screened on leadership, scope, and team-building dimensions, not just IC depth.

Will our candidates think we're not serious because AI is doing first-round?

2026 tech candidates expect AI in the loop. The question is whether your AI feels good or bad. Ours feels good — we put it through senior-engineer beta-test cycles every quarter.

What about confidential / pre-launch hiring?

NDAs, anonymized rubrics, hidden company-identifying details — all supported. Stealth-mode hiring is a real use case for us.

How does this integrate with our existing eng-recruiting pipeline?

Native integrations with Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable. ATS-agnostic via webhook for others. Setup is typically <2 days.
