Nishant Joshi — Co-Founder
I got my first job because a recruiter actually looked at my GitHub. Most engineers aren't that lucky - and most recruiters don't have time to decode commit histories. As the engineer interviewing candidates, I saw the other side: people from top schools who couldn't ship, and hidden gems buried in repos nobody opened. Resumes can lie. Code doesn't. Now I'm building Skillsync (YC W26) - turning GitHub into something recruiters can actually use.
