Why TalentGenie

Not a staffing agency.
Not a marketplace.

We're a founder-led talent investment studio. We don't just match resumes to roles—we underwrite operators, build infrastructure for their success, and provide real accountability.

The Problem

Global talent is broken

Founders have two bad options: expensive local hires or risky remote freelancers. Neither works well for high-judgment work that needs real collaboration.

Freelancer marketplaces
No accountability, variable quality, disappearing contractors
Traditional staffing
Resume mills, no judgment vetting, misaligned incentives
Direct overseas hiring
Legal complexity, no oversight, communication gaps

TalentGenie is different

Underwritten talent
We vet for judgment, not just skills
Office infrastructure
Professional environment and oversight
Single counterparty
Canadian company handles everything
Time zone alignment
Real overlap, real collaboration
Key Differentiators

What makes us different

Judgment vetting

Technical skills are table stakes. We vet operators for judgment—their ability to make good decisions under ambiguity, communicate clearly, and own outcomes.

Every operator goes through scenario-based assessments, not just coding tests.

Office-based operations

Our operators work from TalentGenie offices with reliable infrastructure, professional environment, and peer accountability—not coffee shops or bedrooms.

Offices in Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia with optional Canada-based R&D.

Time zone alignment

Not "flexible hours." Your operators work during your business hours. Stand-ups, real-time collaboration, and synchronous communication—all possible.

PST and EST overlap guaranteed. No async-only arrangements.

Single counterparty

You contract with Jumpstone Technology Inc., a Canadian corporation. We handle employment, payroll, benefits, IP assignment, and legal—you deal with one entity.

Clear contracts, clear accountability, familiar jurisdiction.

Operated By

Jumpstone Technology Inc.

Track Record

Built on real experience

TalentGenie operators have contributed to production systems in regulated and deep-tech environments—including work for USAID, Government of Sri Lanka, H2O.ai, and other organizations where quality and reliability matter.

This is not an endorsement or client relationship claim—it reflects real systems experience.
