OptaHire
My final-year marketplace tackles a hiring bottleneck: engineers doing screening instead of product work. OptaHire connects companies with verified interviewers. Stripe Connect holds escrow. A Flask AI service handles resume matching.
Jan 2024 - Jun 2024
Overview
OptaHire was my FYP for a real problem I kept seeing in hiring threads. Companies post roles. Verified interviewers run first-round screens. Stripe Connect releases escrow only after job completion. Six months of architecture across React, Express, PostgreSQL, and RTK Query with a separate Flask service for resume filtering. This is where I learned how two-sided marketplaces behave at the edges.
Role
Final-year project owner for system architecture, marketplace flows, Stripe Connect escrow, and Flask AI service integration across six months.
Scope
Company onboarding, interviewer verification and ratings, escrow payment lifecycle, AI-assisted job-to-interviewer matching, and candidate screening workflow from post to completion.
Technologies

Key Learnings
- Escrow payment systems with Stripe Connect for multi-party transactions
- AI integration through Flask microservices for resume filtering
- Building two-sided marketplace dynamics with verification systems
Challenges & Solutions
- Implementing secure escrow flows where payments release only after job completion
- Building trust mechanisms through interviewer verification and ratings
- Creating a matching system that pairs interviewers with jobs based on industry expertise
Business Impact
- Companies outsource first-round interviews to verified specialists instead of pulling engineers off product work.
- Escrow-backed payments increase trust between companies and interviewers on both sides of the marketplace.
- AI-assisted matching pairs interviewers with jobs based on industry expertise, not just availability.
Outcome
- Full two-sided recruitment marketplace with working Stripe Connect transaction flow.
- Architecture validated across frontend, backend, and ML service boundaries.
- Foundation extensible toward deeper hiring workflow automation.
