Devs, let's ditch that dusty CV

Xprt is a platform designed exclusively for software engineers who aren't just familiar with code - they live it, breathe it, and excel in it. It's the go-to destination for top tier engineering talent to unite, showcase their prowess, and set new standards in the industry.

At Xprt, we understand that the traditional recruitment process can be cumbersome and repetitive, often failing to capture the full spectrum of an engineer's capabilities. That's why we've reimagined the CV. Xprt equips engineers with dynamic tools to create an online CV that's not static but evolves - just like the technology they work with.

Here, your profile does more than list your experiences; it's a comprehensive hub showcasing your projects, code repositories, blogs, and more. It's all about giving a complete, multifaceted view of your expertise and achievements.

With Xprt, you're not just another resume in a stack. You're a living, breathing testament to your engineering skills, where every project you share, every article you write, and every line of code you commit tells a part of your story. This is where the best of the best engineers converge to change how the world recognises and values their expertise.

Currently, Xprt is in its exciting early stages, focusing on building a robust community of top-tier engineers. Our platform is specifically designed for software engineers who are experts in their field - those we proudly call ‘Xprts’. If you're someone who thrives on coding and engineering, creating innovative solutions, and continuously advancing your technical skills, Xprt is the place for you.

Looking ahead, we're excited to unveil Xprt Jobs, a feature aimed to seamlessly connect Xprts with fitting opportunities, allowing them to uncover roles that resonate with their profound expertise. Concurrently, we will introduce specialised accounts for recruiters and employers. If you're a recruiter or employer aiming to engage with the crème de la crème of engineering talent, these accounts will be your gateway to such interactions. Sign up to stay informed about early access, and be among the first to leverage this innovative matching feature.
