Not Boring Founders: Ayush Jaiswal, Pesto

"Age of Miracles" - A podcast by Packy McCormick | Turpentine

Ayush Jaiswal is the founder and CEO of Pesto, a Not Boring portfolio company that connects companies with the most valuable resource in the world: engineers.  Ayush founded Pesto because he realized that remote was coming even before COVID, and that companies working anywhere meant that they could hire the best talent from anywhere. He also saw that in India, his home country, some of his friends who were talented engineers were making a fraction of what they could working for a western tech company. Pesto fixes that, identifying top engineers globally, starting in India, training them on soft skills, and matching them with higher-paying tech jobs. And it's working -- the average Pesto developer makes 4x what they made before Pesto and hiring companies come back to hire as many as 12 (and soon 30) Pesto developers.  We discuss:   - What remote will look like  - How to identify top engineers  - Expanding into web3   - Why Pesto has focused on growing within existing clients   - How to hire Pesto engineers Listen, or if you just want to hire an engineer right now, go check out Pesto to see profiles of available developers today: Try Pesto. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ageofmiracles/message
