Haystack

Haystack matched developers to jobs based on their actual tech stack — not just job titles and keywords. Built from concept to app store as the founding engineer.

Owned every layer: technical architecture, sprint planning, CI/CD pipelines, iOS and Android releases, AWS infrastructure, and team mentorship.
