All work JetDevs · Case study

We built the AI behind JetDevs' developer vetting.

JetDevs places remote engineers with fast-growing companies. Every candidate is verified, tested and matched before a client meets them, and we built the AI that does it at scale.

Under the hood
  • Event trigger on application
  • Four-lane vetting board
  • Memory per candidate
  • Human spot-check lane
  • Identity and GitHub connectors
  • Learns from client hires
01 The challenge

Vetting that scales, with nothing fake getting through.

Before AI, grading one take-home test took a senior developer 2 to 4 days, and every video interview needed a person to watch it. JetDevs vets hundreds of partner agencies and the candidates behind them, and over 80% of companies worry about identity fraud in remote hiring. The vetting had to scale and stay strict.

02 What we built

Four checks on one Cadra board.

A new application fires an event trigger and lands on the board. From there it moves lane by lane: screen, skills test, interview scoring, match.

  • Starts on its ownAn event trigger starts vetting the moment an application arrives.
  • A lane for each checkScreening, the skills test, interview scoring and matching are lanes on one board, so every candidate's place is visible.
  • Candidate memoryPersistent memory keeps each candidate's checks, scores and evidence in one record.
  • A human spot-check laneSenior engineers review interview scores in their own lane before a profile moves on.
  • Cross-checks through connectorsIDs, references and GitHub, LinkedIn and portfolio footprints are checked through connected tools.
  • Learns from hiresSelf-learning: client hire feedback tunes how the next candidates are matched.
03 How it works

The board, lane by lane.

  1. 1

    Screen

    AI reads every resume.

    It flags inconsistent credentials and discrepancies. IDs, background checks, references and GitHub, LinkedIn and portfolio footprints are cross-checked.

  2. 2

    Source

    One standard for every source.

    Partner agencies are vetted too, and every candidate meets the same screening criteria, wherever they came from.

  3. 3

    Test

    Proctored tests, scored interviews.

    Live skills tests written by JetDevs engineers, screen-shared and webcam-proctored, with AI flagging suspicious behaviour. An LLM scores the video interview and senior engineers spot-check it. Then a 26-point character check.

  4. 4

    Match

    AI reads the client's brief.

    Matching puts only best-fit engineers in front of the client's final interview, straight into the client's Team Console.

04 Guardrails and control

People decide.

  • PeopleHumans check the AI. Senior engineers spot-check interview scores. Nobody is hired on a model's word.
  • EvidenceScored on evidence. Every score points to what the candidate said or did. Accent and origin are never scored.
  • IdentityReal people only. IDs, references and work samples are checked, and tests are proctored live.
  • ReplacementOne-for-one replacement. JetDevs stands behind every match and replaces the engineer if the client asks.
