Give your engineers their time back!Technical Interviews as a Service
We run the early technical screens and route only top candidates to your engineers - turning the interview stream into a priority queue.
Experience rooted in top-tier hiring standards.
We run your interviews end-to-end - structured, signal-based, and aligned with your hiring standards.
Coding & Problem-Solving
Practical coding tasks in a controlled environment to validate problem-solving, debugging, and clarity of thought.
Tech Stack Depth
Deep dive into your core technologies: frameworks, ecosystem, and real-world production experience that matches your stack.
Data Structures & Algorithms
Assess understanding of fundamental CS concepts, algorithmic thinking, and optimization strategies.
System Design
High-level design discussions that reveal ownership, architectural thinking, scalability, and trade-off analysis.
Mindset & Ownership
Evaluate cultural fit, ownership mentality, and the ability to work independently and collaboratively.
Get a sorted list of candidates - and invite only the best matches to meet your team.
Every team faces the same hidden problem
Every hour your engineers spend interviewing is an hour not spent shipping product. Each hire typically consumes 20-40 hours of engineer time - across screening, interviews, and debriefs. That time doesn’t move the roadmap forward, generate revenue, or improve developer satisfaction.

How we run a technical interview
For every interview you get:

- ✓A link to the structured report: what was asked, what came back, quoted
- ✓A hire / no-hire recommendation, with the reason behind it
- ✓A scorecard across every dimension you signed off on
- ✓Strengths and risks, named - not adjectives
- ✓An integrity read: our interviewers are trained to catch cheating, technical and behavioural alike - a fed answer, a second screen, a story that does not survive one follow-up

Frequently Asked Questions
By a person. A senior engineer with 10+ years in production runs a live call of about an hour, following a plan agreed with your team. AI helps us turn the transcript into a structured report. It does not ask the questions and it does not make the call.
Use it for what it does well: generating questions and summarising CVs. What it cannot do is sit across from a candidate and push on an answer until you see whether they understand it or rehearsed it. Now that a model can produce a good answer for free, that live follow-up is where the signal is left.
If your team has the time and already knows the stack, you probably don't. Teams come to us when interviews eat their senior engineers' weeks, or when they hire for a stack nobody in-house can assess yet. Our first client was rewriting a Java system in Go and had no one calibrated to interview for it.
Your bar. Before the first candidate we agree the interview plan with your tech lead, and they can cut or add anything. One client's tech lead removed the algorithms section and replaced live coding with a review of a small Go service, because that is what the job actually is.
Yes. We run the interview on Zoom with the candidate's consent, and you get a copy of the recording with the report, so you can check any conclusion against the moment it came from. The data is processed under GDPR for your role only, and we delete it on request.
Engineers from the technical interviewing team built and led at Turing: 22 people, each with 10+ years in production. Before we start, we show you who covers your stack: their role, seniority and what they work with.
No subscription. You pay per role: $2,000 covers the interview plan built with your tech lead, up to 10 interviews, and a ranked list of everyone we interviewed. You pay for the role, not per interview.
Our interviewers are trained to catch a fed answer, a second screen, or a story that does not survive one follow-up question, and the report says what they saw. We don't sell automated fake detection: a live follow-up is the check that holds up.
Yes. Candidates can arrive from your ATS or be uploaded directly, and the report, recording and verdict go back to where your recruiters already work. Teamtailor is integrated today.
Yes, it is a separate part of the interview: what the candidate delegates to AI and what they keep, how they wire it into the pipeline, and how they test what it writes. We also evaluate AI-native roles, including engineers working on LLM-based systems.
No. We don't source or place anyone, so we never compete with your recruiters or your agency for the hire. You bring the candidates, we give you the technical read on them.
A no-show counts as a held interview, because the interviewer's slot was reserved. Cancel at least 4 hours ahead and it doesn't count.
Yes. Introduce us and earn 10% of everything that client pays us in their first 12 months. Your client stays yours, because we don't source or place candidates. The terms are on our partner program page.
Yes. A one-hour mock interview in English with an engineer from our team, at a senior software engineer bar, recorded, with a written breakdown of where you stand and what to close. $150.
