Co-founder @ Paraform - we're hiring

These people could work anywhere, but they chose to join me and Jeffrey Li to build Paraform. Building a company is really difficult. You start with nothing. Just an idea and a belief that it should exist. And then, somehow, you convince other people to believe in it too. They had every opportunity in the world, and yet, they decided this was worth their time, energy, and talent. Why? 1/ We’re solving one of the hardest problems out there. Everyone—tech companies, fine dining restaurants, factories, financial institutions—needs great talent to grow. We’re tackling a $700B market head-on. 2/ We have a bias towards action. We went from 0 to mid-7-digit revenue in 12 months. All because of focused, high-velocity building. 3/ We attract the best. High-agency, smart-as-hell people who want to build something big, and they want to do it with a team that moves like they do. 4/ We’re designing a company that scales without slowing down. Most startups start fast and then get bogged down by process and bloat. We’re doing the opposite: building a team and culture that stays fast, nimble, and high-agency no matter how big we get. To the team: I’m very grateful to be working with you all. To everyone else: We’re hiring, join us. It’s an opportunity to be part of a generational company you look back on and say, I was there when it all happened.

So many companies claim they’re ‘disrupting an industry’—but Paraform is actually doing it. And I truly believe that. The way youve reimagined execution, client relationships, and ease of use isn’t just innovation for the sake of it—it’s exactly what the recruiting industry needs. The impact you’re making is just the beginning. Excited to see what’s next—you’re going to change the game ❤️

I was working on the platform for a short period of time until I took a role in-house. I was so impressed as a recruiter to see the way they built their system and the service they provide. Unique and outstanding.
