Ambiguous engineering tickets from realistic fake codebases. No toy problems β€” actual production complexity.

02
πŸ”§

Solve it your way

πŸ€–

Claude scores your PR

Open a PR with your reasoning. Claude evaluates root cause, design, communication, and execution.

Not another coding quiz

Real engineering is messy, ambiguous, and full of hidden context. We simulate that.

πŸ›
Authentic

Real codebases, real bugs

Not algorithm puzzles. Actual .NET, Node and Python services with race conditions, fire-and-forget anti-patterns, and conflicting business rules.

🧠
Thinking-first

Diagnosis is 40% of your score

Finding WHY a bug exists is 10Γ— harder than fixing it. We reward engineers who go deep on root cause analysis.

πŸ“Š
Analytics

Track 4 dimensions over time

Diagnosis, Design, Communication, Execution. See your chart evolve as you complete tickets and spot your weakest area.

🏒
Employer

Built for teams and hiring

Employers run assessments, rank candidates by score, and track training across the org β€” all from one dashboard.

Execution is only 10%

Shipping code that works is table stakes. Understanding why the bug exists separates senior engineers.
