How to hire for startup success with DevSavant's behavioral framework

Every hire changes the velocity of your startup. At Series A/B stage, the cost of a misaligned role goes far beyond compensation, it delays execution, burns time, and risks momentum. That’s why skills alone aren’t enough. What truly drives outcomes is behavior: adaptability, initiative, resilience, and the mindset to keep learning even under pressure. At DevSavant, we built the Startup Profiles Program to address exactly that. It’s a behavioral framework that helps us source talent with more than just technical fit, people who: · Adapt fast to shifting priorities · Own their work with autonomy · Learn, improve, and grow without being pushed · Communicate clearly across teams · Uplift others, not just themselves We look for Growth Mindset and Drive, and that’s what moves execution forward when things get hard. Are your hires built for the job or for the pace? #TechTalent #SaaS #StartupExecution
