I'm excited to welcome @cambridgemike as our VP of Engineering. Mike joins us after having spent 13 years at @X (Twitter) - where he already made hires using Juicebox!

In the last 2 years of scaling our engineering team, we had three main learnings.

1/ Approach every problem from first principles
2/ Small, competent teams can drive outsized outcomes
3/ Great engineers understand product and business goals

Mike embodies every single one of these. He is one of the clearest first-principles thinkers I've met. He has run remarkably lean teams at X (Twitter) responsible for some of the world's hardest product and infra challenges. And he did all of this in a high pressure environment that most companies will never see.

Having built one of the world's most loved consumer apps, Mike also brings an exceptional level of product intuition. That's especially important as we build agents for a complex workflow like recruiting.

Fun fact: he actually used Juicebox Agents to hire for his previous team :)

Welcome to the team, Mike! Couldn't be more excited for this next phase of growth.

We’re the first talent search platform built around how the top 1% recruiters hire.

This week, @juicebox_work got a major upgrade.

Juicebox now surfaces 120% more relevant candidates (across 800 million profiles) and assesses them 3x faster - compared to our previous search experience.

But this update isn’t just about speed.

It’s about fixing how talent search works 🧵
