Why we exist
The average team waits 3 to 6 weeks for a first qualified interview. Not a hire, an interview.
Every tool on the market answers that by handing you more. More sourcing seats, more outreach, more dashboards. We built Lemon on the opposite bet: the top of the funnel, sourcing, vetting, screening, and warm-up, is intelligence-heavy work that can be done for you, not just faster by you. So we automate it, and hand you the short list.
Ten years in.
Profitable.
Independent.
We started in 2015 and have spent a decade learning what predicts a great engineering hire, then building the sourcing, vetting, and matching engine behind it. Our talent spans four continents, so your roles move while you sleep.
Case studies
Aerospace
The experience with Lemon.io has been fantastic. The interview process has been good, the caliber of people – excellent and integration has been very smooth.
Healthcare
We wanted to act FAST to build a new product that’s fit for the US market. Once we reached out to Lemon, we got things done at a speed I couldn’t have imagined. It didn’t take long for Lemon to find a great resource, then two more, and then another. Every single engineer they’ve brought us has been rock solid.
