Show HN: HireIndex – A Searchable Directory for Who Wants to Be Hired on HN

2 dk8996 0 7/8/2025, 4:11:01 AM hireindex.xyz ↗

Hi HN,

I built hireindex.xyz – a searchable website that aggregates and indexes candidates from the "Who Wants to Be Hired" threads on Hacker News.

Coming soon: Analytics to highlight trends in skills, technologies, and candidate preferences across HN posts.

With HireIndex, you can:

Search by tech stack.

Quickly scan bios, salary expectations, and contact links.

Filter by remote/on-site preferences and employment type.

I made this because I was tired of scrolling through long threads and wanted a better way to find interesting people.

Would love your feedback – especially around UX and anything that would make it more useful to hiring managers, founders, or even job seekers themselves.
