At Howdy, we invest heavily in infrastructure, personal development, mentorship, and the psychology of teams. Because building a winning team isn't about individual contributors — it's about fostering individual growth, demanding high performance, and providing the right support to sustain excellence.
The best teams aren't built through transactional hiring. They're built through a deliberate, data-informed, and deeply human process. When people are supported and challenged to grow, they don't just meet expectations — they crush them.
That's the heartbeat of Howdy. A lot of companies can fill seats. Howdy builds world-class product teams.
Through experience, we've identified three areas that are consistently broken in how companies hire, retain, and develop top performers — and we've rebuilt each one from the ground up.
Sustainable High Performance Is Not Accidental… It's Engineered
HIGH PERFORMANCERecruiting, Reinvented
Recruiting, in most companies, is just sales by another name — convincing people to take a job. But hiring the right people for the right role requires precision and insight.
Instead of hiring recruiters, we hire psychologists. Howdy employs 31 full-time psychologists who we train as recruiters and equip them with advanced AI automation tools.
They don't just evaluate skills — they assess motivation, capability, and long-term fit.
This combination of behavioral expertise and technology allows us to identify exceptional talent faster and more accurately than traditional recruiting methods. In the era of deepfakes it's never been more important to ensure that you have real people talking to real people — with the data, knowledge, experience, and tools to back up every decision.

Individual Support, Reinvented
Even the best hires need structure and feedback to perform at their peak.
Even the best hires need structure and feedback to perform at their peak.
Most companies leave that up to chance or task an already overburdened manager with handling it, a company resource who should be focused on overall execution, not individual performance.
That’s why we’ve built performance coaching directly into our model. After working with hundreds of companies and thousands of people, we recognized that the individual support an employee gets varies widely. So we wanted to standardize it and make it the best on the market.
Every Howdy Professional is paired with a full-time performance coach — a veteran engineering manager with at least a decade of hands-on experience. Their mission is singular: ensure the success and performance of every hire.
Engineering managers want to build. They want to ship. We clear the way so your EMs have the most performance-ready team available. Furthermore, we have no ego. If you want us to dial back our help, we are happy to be an extension of your goals. Think of us like a dial, turn us up or down as much as you’d like.
When our coaches focus entirely on your developers’ success, your engineering managers can focus on execution.
Howdy’s model offloads the emotional burden from the company, removes friction, reduces management overhead, and keeps teams aligned and performing at their highest level.
