Rekrsv Engine^™

Fixing the broken technical hiring pipeline for fast-growing engineering teams.

Rekrsv is an applicant tracking system (ATS) and talent intelligence workspace built for high-growth tech companies hiring software engineers, product managers, and designers. As Lead Product Designer, I created an end-to-end workspace that replaces messy email threads and chaotic spreadsheets with automated candidate pipelines, blind resume scoring, and structured interview rubrics.

Eliminating unconscious bias and recruiter cognitive fatigue.

Hiring managers review hundreds of resumes daily, often spending less than 6 seconds per applicant while suffering from subjective cognitive fatigue. We needed to design an interface that surfaces verified coding skills, portfolio depth, and standardized rubric ratings without obscuring the authentic candidate behind the profile.

“Hiring great engineers isn’t about matching keywords on a resume; it’s about giving candidates a dignified, transparent, and responsive evaluation experience.”

Keyboard-first navigation, blind candidate evaluation, and unified dossiers.
