A few months ago I bumped into Tyba co-founder Eiso Kant at an artificial intelligence conference in London. Why was a recruitment startup interested in A.I., I asked? He said he couldn’t tell me but would reveal all soon.
Well, ‘soon’ has become ‘now’ as Tyba launches a fascinating new business today called Sourced (or ‘source{d}’ as they prefer to present it). Focused on recruitment and professional development for software developers, it scans code submitted to repositories on services such as GitHub and Bitbucket, and builds a database of the skills and experience of each coder.
