How Astranis launched a faster hiring process with Coderbyte

Astranis Space Technologies has raised nearly $1B to build the world’s most advanced satellites for high orbits. To fuel their hypergrowth, the employer needed to scale its hiring efforts quickly and accurately. That’s why they turned to Coderbyte’s talent evaluation platform.

Interview with Sherry Yao

Recruiting Operations Manager

Challenge

The interview platform Astranis previously used suffered from significant limitations.

The platform only supported a limited range of question types, which restricted our ability to assess a broader range of skills.

The text editor lacked the functionality and feel of a true IDE.

Astranis evaluated most technical screening market leaders including Coderbyte across the following criteria

Full IDE environment to simulate real-world coding.

Broad question library suitable for any technical role.

Integration with Greenhouse to   automate workflow.

Ability to customize assessments and questions.

Solution

Astranis deployed Coderbyte’s assessment and interview capabilities to screen upfront and then in-depth interview the top candidates.

Sherry Yao configured Coderbyte’s native Greenhouse integration to automatically invite candidates to assessments and interviews and then post their report details to the candidates’ profile in Greenhouse.

In addition to a superior experience, Coderbyte was significantly more affordable than the other platforms.

Coderbyte provides a much more advanced and flexible experience, with support for multiple question types that enable more project-oriented assessments.

The full IDE environment, with files and folders closely mirrors real-world workflows.

Results

In their first year on Coderbyte, Astranis assessed 2,000+ candidates and interviewed 200+ across more than 10 roles

Coderbyte helped reduce time-to-hire without sacrificing candidate quality.

Our experience with Coderbyte has been positive, particularly in streamlining our hiring workflows for both intern and full-time roles.
It was the clear value choice.
By evaluating candidates asynchronously before scheduling live interviews, we’ve been able to identify strong technical talent early and prioritize conversations with the most promising applicants.
Setting up the integration was straightforward and intuitive.
