What changes when it is recruitment & hr tech
Orqent Labs builds the unglamorous layer properly, ingestion, modelling, quality and lineage, because everything above it inherits whatever we get wrong here.
In recruitment & hr tech, any screening automation must be tested for bias and be explainable to a rejected candidate. That single fact reshapes how data engineering has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is CV parsing and structured screening, usually integrated against ATS. We build the smallest thing that proves the case, put it in front of real users, and expand only what earns its keep.
Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

Questions from this sector
Is AI screening legal?
In India, with care; under the EU AI Act hiring is classified high-risk with specific obligations. Either way, bias testing, explainability and human review of rejections are the baseline we build to.
How do you prevent bias?
Testing outcomes across demographic groups, excluding proxy features, and keeping a human decision on every rejection. We report the test results rather than asserting fairness.
Which warehouse do you recommend?
It depends on your volume, team and existing cloud. Postgres carries far more workloads than people expect; Snowflake, BigQuery and Databricks earn their cost at genuine scale.
Can you work with our existing stack?
Yes. Rebuilding a working stack is rarely the right call. We usually extend and stabilise what exists rather than starting over.
How do you handle data quality?
Tests that run on every pipeline execution and fail loudly, plus lineage so a bad number can be traced to its source in minutes rather than days.
