Commit raises $6 million seed funding round, matches engineers with startups (TechCrunch)

Commit, a Vancouver, Canada-based firm that aims to match senior engineers with startups, announced a $6 million seed funding round, TechCrunch reported. Commit vets both startups and engineers, aiming to making moving to a smaller startup easier for senior engineers accustomed to working at larger, more established companies. It also offers a community of remotely working engineers to provide peer support and career advice as well as coaching and other services. Commit told TechCrunch it will pay workers a salary if they leave a large tech company until they land a job at a new firm.
