We're fixing hiring.

HireOp was born out of frustration. Too many resumes. Too much guesswork. Far too many hours wasted on candidates who looked perfect on paper but couldn't do the job.

We've been on both sides of the table — hiring engineers, product managers, sales reps, even a CEO. We know the pain of screening hundreds of applications, spending hours on interviews, and still making the wrong hire.

So we built HireOp — an AI-powered platform that screens, verifies, and ranks candidates based on actual skills, not resumes. We help lean teams skip the noise and focus on people who can actually do the work.

Who we're building for

HireOp is built for startups and SMBs — companies that don't have big HR teams but still need to hire great people fast. If you're drowning in applications, wasting time on bad interviews, or worried about making the wrong hire, we're for you.

We work with companies hiring technical roles (engineers, product folks), sales and marketing teams, and operations. If you need to know whether someone can actually do the job before you waste time interviewing them, HireOp helps.
