meet a builder — not a deliverable.

start a small paid project. watch them build on real work. then decide.

the project is the door — the hire is the room.

which door is yours?

one question, not a menu. it self-sorts founders into the right read, and self-sorts builders too — the azure person takes the azure project, and the work verifies the fluency they’d otherwise just claim. a founder who can’t pick a door is telling us something — usually door b, and usually the bigger hire.
