Show HN: I Built a Tool to Find Devs Based on Code, Not LinkedIn Titles

Hey HN

After years working in software engineering and helping with hiring, I noticed a frustrating pattern:

Companies often rely on résumés and LinkedIn titles to find developers instead of looking at what they've actually built.

So I built GitMatcher.

It analyzes GitHub profiles to surface developers based on:

Their public repos

Commit history

Originality and usefulness of code

Patterns that show consistency and real skill

No keywords. No job titles. Just code.

GitMatcher is useful if you're:

- A recruiter tired of resume roulette

- A founder looking for a technical co-founder

- An OSS maintainer searching for genuine contributors

It’s still early, so I’d love your feedback especially around what signals you’d care about most when discovering devs.
