Vincent Woo, a software engineer with experience working with some of the best technology teams in the world at companies like Google and Amazon, became frustrated during interviews where it was obvious that developers would have done better if they could just run their code and debug in real time. Even with all of that recruiting power, the process of screening technical talent was still extremely manual, time consuming for hiring managers and intimidating for great candidates. He also saw how easily the process biased towards engineers with better resumes than technical skills.

So he designed CoderPad as an alternative to both the antiquated whiteboard and feature-heavy, expensive HR software. It gave small startups that lacked the high-end tools and resources of their larger competitors access to great technology to screen and compete for talent and gave large companies the ability to reliably collaborate via live paired programming interviews with candidates all over the world.

The company grew rapidly via word of mouth from happy developers–both those conducting interviews but more often, those who had a great interview experience. Along the way we teamed up with Frédéric Desmoulins, founder and CEO of CodinGame . CodinGame also deeply understood how the hiring process was biased towards engineers with better resumes than technical skills and was on a mission to promote a more inclusive tech community.
