Why Your Next Great Developer Isn’t on LinkedIn

The best developers aren’t always the ones with the loudest profiles.

Some are buried under rejections.
Some are stuck without referrals.
Some just need someone to take a chance.

💡 Enter Forgestack.

We're building a platform to:

  • Surface overlooked developer talent
  • Help companies discover motivated, diverse devs
  • Create a more human hiring experience

🧠 Why It Matters:

  • Traditional hiring filters out too many hungry, self-taught, or non-traditional devs.
  • Companies miss out on fresh ideas and loyal team members.
  • Junior devs burn out — not because they can't do the work, but because no one gives them a shot.

🚀 Let’s Change That.

If you're a:

  • Company that believes in hiring for potential
  • Dev team that wants to give back
  • Tech leader looking for talent that sticks

We’d love to work with you.
