Summary

2024 was our first full year of placing people. We placed 12 people at 9 companies. Five of the nine clients were founders in San Francisco, New York, Boston and Dubai hiring people in India.

Rifflix and Luppa AI found us on Twitter. CharacterHub came through a referral. Anirudh Reddy at Rifflix introduced us to Sydney Liu, who then hired two engineers for CharacterHub.

The hires[6]
01
Rifflix

Rifflix reviewed 6 profiles and hired 2 engineers

Anirudh Reddy, a Stanford graduate on his second startup, found us on Twitter. The first engineer we introduced was too backend-heavy for the role.

We sourced about 50 applicants from Twitter and LinkedIn, ranked all of them, and sent him the top five with notes. He hired two of them, Debabrata Mondal and Royal Sanga. Debabrata later joined D. E. Shaw after graduating.

CharacterHub

A referral led to two CharacterHub hires

Anirudh introduced us to Sydney Liu, whose AI character platform is backed by the founders of Twitch and Crunchyroll. Sydney planned to hire one full-stack engineer.

After seeing the shortlist he hired two, Purva Rajyaguru and Aditya Dubey. Both accepted offers in late 2024 and started on January 6, 2025.

LuppaAI

Luppa AI ran a three-month search for a senior designer

Dhanvin Sriram, building Luppa AI in Dubai, wrote to us on X in June 2024. He wanted a senior product designer with at least 4 years of experience who had taken a product from zero to launch.

We shortlisted 25 designers. In the third month he hired Manan Adhikari, who had worked at HackerRank and Innovaccer. Luppa came back in 2025 to hire a QA engineer.
