Building an Engineering Team

Harj Taggar and Ammon Bartram explain how startups can find, evaluate, and close engineering hires. They recommend starting with personal networks, then using hiring marketplaces and targeted outreach, and they describe when recruiters can help. Bartram argues for structured interviews based on skills that matter to the company, with consistent questions and attention to bias, false negatives, and candidate experience. Taggar closes with advice on moving quickly, explaining company culture and offers clearly, and presenting the opportunities of startup work.
