We match startups with developers and UX designers

We refer pre-vetted tech talent to startup founders working on pioneering projects

What founders and job seekers say about us

​SkillsRobin introduced us to high quality, diverse engineering candidates with relevant technical and startup experience. Pre-vetting of candidates saved us time in initial calls and made us more confident moving them down the recruitment pipeline. They provided tremendous value compared to working with recruiting agencies or doing open-call online posting
Steve
Co-founder, Stealth Startup
​I joined an early stage startup as their first engineer after being contacted by the founder. It’s a really unique opportunity to build a product from the beginning while also deepening my engineering knowledge. It’s not an opportunity that is ever really advertised, and it’s not very common to come by - so thank you to the SkillsRobin team.
Peter
Software Engineer, Sydney
Thanks to SkillsRobin, I not only found an exciting opportunity to work on an AI product but also connected with individuals who truly appreciate my skills and values. It's been an incredibly rewarding experience.
Helena
UI Designer & Developer, Sydney
SkillsRobin connected us with exceptional talent to add to our engineering team. Especially loved that they were pre-vetted, which helped our hiring process and gave us the assurance in selecting the right candidates.
Sreyna Rath
CEO and Founder, Jaimee.AI
"As a newcomer to the design world, SkillsRobin was incredibly helpful in matching me with an early-stage startup that aligns with my background. This was a very unique opportunity and I'm grateful to the SkillsRobin team for helping me deepen my skills!"
