Established in 2020 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Hireroo, Inc. offers a specialized platform for the technical recruitment market. The company was founded by Keisuke Taniai, Kosuke Kuzuoka, and Yuichi Ito. As a Series A company, Hireroo has secured $5.13 million in funding over three rounds, with the latest round in May 2025, to support business development and technological enhancements. Investors include SMBC Venture Capital, Primal Capital, and Coral Capital.
Hireroo provides a cloud-based, subscription model platform designed to streamline the applicant tracking process for technology-focused roles such as engineering managers and front-end developers. The service aims to reduce hiring mismatches by assessing both the hard and soft skills of engineering candidates through a structured evaluation process. This is particularly relevant in the age of generative AI, where traditional coding tests can be less effective at screening. The platform serves HR professionals, tech companies, and recruitment agencies looking to refine their hiring methods.
The platform's core offering is a comprehensive coding assessment tool that allows recruiters to create customized tests. It features various question formats including coding algorithms, practical framework application tests, system design challenges, and multiple-choice quizzes. These tests can measure a candidate's problem-solving abilities, expertise in specific frameworks, and system design knowledge. To ensure the integrity of the assessments, Hireroo incorporates anti-fraud measures like a playback function that reviews a candidate's problem-solving approach and detects copy-paste activities. The platform also supports live coding sessions to evaluate real-time problem-solving and communication skills. All services are available in both English and Japanese.
