Tasker is an AI-driven talent platform that matches companies with pre-screened fractional hardware engineering experts for defined tasks and short-term projects, using output-based pricing where clients pay only after approving deliverables.
Tasker is a two-sided, AI-driven talent platform built by and for engineers to connect hardware engineering tasks and short-term projects with highly qualified fractional engineering experts. The platform focuses on task-based engagements with clearly defined deliverables and budgets, enabling companies to hire on-demand engineering expertise and pay only after results are validated and accepted. For companies, Tasker positions itself as an alternative to hourly contracting and traditional staffing by taking ownership of an engineering task, helping define the output, and then proposing a shortlist of pre-screened engineers. Tasker emphasizes privacy and confidentiality by limiting task visibility to interested, shortlisted candidates. For engineers, Tasker offers a “Skills Passport” approach (no CVs) and matching based on expertise, availability, and personal compatibility (“click”) with the client. Engineers can work remotely or on-site depending on the task, control their availability, and rely on Tasker for administration and payments. Tasker also describes developing a “global expertise graph” based on validated data from engineering talent and market needs to identify future expertise demands, forecast industry trends, and map expertise geographically.
