Commit is the first professional network that puts the career needs of Startup Engineers first. We’re a collaborative, remote-first community with life-long peer-to-peer support, personalized career development, and unique access to startup opportunities.
Hi Product Hunters 👋 and shoutout to @chrismessina for the hunt 👏
I'm the CEO at Commit. It is my pleasure to share a note from me and my Co-Founder / CTO, Beier Cai.
As experienced technical leaders and entrepreneurs, we deeply understand how hard it is for software engineers to build a successful career in the startup ecosystem–it’s financially risky, it’s hard to find the best opportunities, and it’s super stressful to go through the endless, nonsense technical interviews.
After we exited our last ventures, we found ourselves thinking of solutions to the top problems these engineers were facing and the idea for Commit was born: An Engineer-first community that was built on the operating principle: Do What’s Right for the Engineer.
We are building an exclusive community of highly talented and collaborative startup developers where we can provide them with:
- Real Time Peer to Peer Support
- World-Class Professional Development
- Seamless Career Transitions Resources
Our Career Transitions Resources features an Engineering Partner Program where we hire Startup Engineers and help them find their next startup with an expertly vetted, personalized list of potential matches.
How the Engineering Partner Program works:
1 - JOIN COMMIT -----> Get hired and start collaborating with other Startup Engineers! Access career support, and view your personalized startup matches.
2 - START A PILOT -----> After meeting with your preferred startups, start shipping code with the one you’re passionate about before committing long term.
3 - JOIN A STARTUP -----> Join the ideal startup permanently, and remain a Community Member. Collaborate with the Commit community for technical support & more.

Report
Commit helped me find a job as the 1st engineer at a high-growth startup from SF, helped me develop my leadership/business skills via their coaching program, and gave me lots of opportunities to grow in my dev career. All of that happened in less than a year. Not bad, right?
I'm really happy to see the community growing, congrats again on the public launch!

I've been in contact with Beier for a couple years now, since the very early days of Commit, and I can tell you that he is extremely passionate about supporting developers in their careers, building a powerhouse community, and helping startups build cool things.
If you have always dreamed about joining an early stage startup, but always chosen the "safe offer" instead... You need to get in contact with Commit!!! You're their people!!!
@colin_gagnon Really appreciate the support Colin! Absolutely agreed that if anyone currently weighing options between startups vs big corps, at least have a chat with Commit first! (-:

Congrats on the launch, Beier and Greg. Big fans of what you're building, and love how you flipped the conventional models on its head and are focusing on the engineer.
This is the future for engineers across the world! I've worked in a lot of places, never have I seen an ecosystem that helps engineers so much! I'm super excited to see how we can keep making a difference.
Congrats @beier_cai and @gunnr on the launch. Bringing strong tech talent together with innovative companies that need it is an invaluable service that de-risks the "commit"-ment for both sides. Keep up the great work!
@gunnr@robert_zalaudek Thank you Rob! While our operating principal is to do what's right for the engineers, we strongly believe this approach ultimately benefits the startups as well that 1. they have access to more talents curated by us, 2. much better long term fit driven by passion and interest, instead of just another getting paid job!
Congratulations @gunnr@beier_cai - this is a remarkable approach. The introduction of the pilot is pretty unique and solves a big problem for both engineers and startups. Very excited for this!
