Why are you vouching for them?

Sample Priya Nair · Northgate Labs · 14 March 2026

“I managed SK for two years on our payments team. When a migration was failing in her first quarter, she took it over, found the root cause in a week and wrote the runbook the whole team still uses. She’s the person I’d ask first to join anything hard, and I’d work with her again tomorrow.”
