CodePortfolio: Verified Technical Portfolio & Proof-of-Work Marketplace

A lightweight portfolio plugin (embeddable on personal sites, linked from LinkedIn) that lets developers prove technical competence through verified, timestamped project work. Employers can filter candidates by actual shipped code, contributions, and peer-reviewed project outcomes—not resume keywords. Developers build a searchable, verifiable proof-of-work profile that replaces the generic resume and surfaces them to employers searching for specific tech stacks and outcomes.

PLUGIN

27 weeks • 70% confidence

Value Proposition

Candidates get discovered by employers searching for specific tech stacks and project types they've actually built; employers see real code and outcomes, not claims. Beats job boards because discovery is based on demonstrated skill, not application volume or recruiter luck.

Target Audience

Mid-to-senior developers (3-10 years experience) who have shipped real projects but struggle to get discovered; tech hiring managers and founders looking for signal beyond resumes

Key Features

  • One-click portfolio creation: connect GitHub, link deployed projects, add project context (problem solved, tech stack, user impact)
  • Verification layer: projects must link to live deployed code, GitHub commits, or peer review; timestamp and snapshot immutable
  • Employer search & filtering: search by tech stack (Node.js + React + PostgreSQL), project type (B2B SaaS, mobile app), scale (users served, revenue generated), or outcome (reduced latency 40%, scaled to 100k users)
  • And more, with full implementation detail...

Tech Stack

Next.js or React for portfolio UI and employer dashboard Node.js backend (Express or Fastify) PostgreSQL for portfolio and search data GitHub API for repo and commit data

Original Problem

Skilled tech workers struggle to get discovered by quality employers in a noisy job market

Talented developers, engineers, and technical professionals spend significant time crafting applications and résumés, but get lost in massive applicant pools or never reach hiring managers directly. Current job boards and traditional recruiting channels fail to surface qualified candidates to the right employers efficiently, forcing skilled workers to rely on networking or passive visibility while competing against hundreds of applicants for single positions.
