Amor

About Amor

Amor is a collaborative sourcing platform designed to help engineering teams, recruiters, and hiring managers discover and connect with the most technically proficient software engineers on GitHub. It moves beyond traditional networking-focused platforms by analyzing real, verifiable coding activity across millions of developer profiles and repositories. The core value proposition is synergy: by uniting technical screening, team collaboration, and workflow integration into one seamless process, Amor empowers hiring teams to make faster, more informed decisions together. It answers complex sourcing questions—like finding front-end engineers in a specific city who actively contribute to key open-source projects—in seconds, saving countless hours otherwise spent on manual searches or custom scripts. Built for a team-oriented hiring process, Amor provides the data-driven insights and shared workspace needed to identify, evaluate, and engage top-tier engineering talent that often remains hidden on platforms like LinkedIn, ultimately accelerating the entire hiring pipeline through collective effort.

Features of Amor

Advanced GitHub Intelligence

Amor tracks over 8 million developer profiles and analyzes billions of data points, including commits, stars, and repositories. It applies sophisticated filters like commit frequency, weekend coding activity, and cleaned location data to surface engineers in the top 1% of activity. This deep intelligence allows your team to collaboratively search for candidates based on actual technical contribution and proven work patterns, not just self-reported skills.

Smart Profile Summaries & Insights

Each engineer's profile is automatically enriched to provide an easy-to-skim summary of their technical interests, key projects, and contribution patterns. This feature synthesizes complex GitHub activity into actionable insights, enabling your hiring team to quickly align on a candidate's potential fit and technical focus without spending hours decoding commit histories individually.

Collaborative Candidate Workspace

Amor is built for team synergy, featuring shared candidate lists, profile comments, and easy sharing tools. Teams can work together to build pipelines, add collective notes on prospects, and make unified hiring decisions faster. This shared workspace reduces silos and ensures everyone from recruiters to engineering managers is aligned throughout the sourcing process.

Seamless Ashby Integration

Export your collaboratively built candidate lists directly to Ashby's CSV import format in one click. Amor auto-enriches profiles with email addresses sourced from GitHub commits and includes LinkedIn URLs and smart tags. This integration creates a powerful synergy between sourcing and applicant tracking, streamlining the workflow for the entire hiring team.

Use Cases of Amor

For In-House Recruiting Teams

In-house recruiters can scale their engineering hiring efficiently by leveraging Amor's data to find experts with the right technical chops and work ethic indicators. The platform fosters collaboration with hiring managers, enabling the team to build a faster, higher-quality pipeline together and significantly reduce time-to-hire through shared insights and lists.

For Technical Recruiting Agencies

Agencies can gain a competitive edge by accessing an exclusive, untapped pool of candidates who are highly active on GitHub but not on traditional networking sites. Teams within an agency can collaborate to place top senior engineering talent faster than their LinkedIn-only competitors, using Amor's insights to provide unparalleled value to their clients.

For Engineering Managers & Hiring Teams

Engineering managers can use Amor to proactively source candidates who will thrive on their specific team. By reviewing technical interest summaries and contribution patterns together with their recruiters, the hiring team can raise the bar, ensure culture fit, and power more effective, synergistic outreach based on shared evaluation criteria.

For Building Diverse Talent Pipelines

Hiring teams committed to diversity can use Amor to source from underrepresented communities in tech by discovering highly skilled engineers based purely on their verifiable work and contributions. This objective, data-first approach helps teams collaborate on building more inclusive pipelines by focusing on merit and activity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Amor define a "top 1%" engineer?

Amor identifies engineers in the top 1% primarily based on coding activity and consistency. A key metric includes having over 500 contributions in the last year. The platform also analyzes patterns like regular commit frequency and meaningful project involvement to surface developers who are consistently and actively building software, indicating a strong work ethic and passion.

What makes Amor better than searching on LinkedIn or GitHub directly?

Amor saves teams hundreds of hours by automating the complex data synthesis that would require custom scripts. It cleans noisy GitHub location data, analyzes weekend commit activity, and filters by specific repository contributions—tasks nearly impossible to do manually at scale. This enables collaborative, precise sourcing that LinkedIn's self-reported profiles or GitHub's basic search cannot match.

How does the collaboration features work for a hiring team?

Team members can create and share candidate lists, add comments and notes directly onto engineer profiles for full team visibility, and easily share profiles with stakeholders. This creates a synergistic workflow where recruiters, sourcers, and hiring managers can align on candidates, discuss fit, and move forward together without switching between disjointed tools.

How accurate is the email enrichment from GitHub commits?

Amor automatically parses email addresses that developers have used in their Git commit history on public repositories. While this provides a valuable sourcing channel, it's important for teams to use this data responsibly as part of a compliant outreach strategy, understanding that not all engineers use a primary or current email for their commits.
