Inside the Nairon AI Bootcamp
Talent shouldn’t be decided by resumes or interviews. Give an engineer a real problem, a deadline, and you’ll know who they are.

Our mission
Traditional hiring is broken for engineers.
Mass-applying into the void, endless recruiter screens, ghosted after six interviews, assignments, then being reduced to a ticket machine inside companies that don’t ship fast.
We built Nairon as a place where engineers earn their value in one dimension only can you ship reliable, production AI under pressure? No resume theater, no recruiter games, no endless take-homes.
If you’re great, you don’t need to beg for opportunity. You need one intense arena that proves it.
Our approach
One intense program, engineered for failure. Not everyone makes it, and that’s the point.
