Hired 18 FDEs. All 100% still shipping.
Structuring engineering interviews around real code delivery rather than abstract brainteasers. I hire for taste, raw shipping speed, and extreme operational discipline.

Hiring shouldn't be Leetcode. It should be actual, orienting delivery.
I structured the hiring funnel and remote-work guidelines at ELO, growing our engineering capacity while keeping developer turnover at a record low. Every hire was evaluated against their capacity to ship real features under constraint.
I teach engineers how to speak business metrics. An engineer who understands retention, customer acquisition costs (CAC), and unit economics is worth five developers who only understand language syntax.
Happy to plug in here — let's build along the journey.
I've scaled remote-first engineering workflows by 50% as ELO's CIO and hired 18 forward-deployed engineers with 100% active retention — so the people-systems instincts are real, even if the public portfolio isn't HR-shaped.
If you're pursuing automated talent pipelines, sovereign worker databases, or remote HR platforms, I'd love to chat. Bring whatever shape the brief is in — I'm flexible about how we engage.
Looking to work with hr & people ops, together with Fauzul?
I take hr & people ops seriously and I'm happy to engage flexibly — exploratory chat, short audit, fractional, or a full forward-deployed sprint. Book a session or send an email — whatever's easier on your end. I reply within 24 hours.
Three engagement shapes.
I move in with your founders. Spec, prototype, prod. You own the IP from day one.
Roadmap, hire 2-3 engineers, set up the audit + compliance posture.
Architecture, compliance, hire bar, AI readiness. Written report + 60-min review.
Send the brief, get a real reply.
Your industry gets a structured 24-hour response: a fit score, the three risks I see, and a one-call ask.
