Colare, a hiring platform for hardware engineers, raised a $2.5M pre-seed. It runs simulation-based assessments — mechanical (CAD, DFM, FEA), electrical (PCB, schematics), systems, manufacturing — so candidates prove their skills in real tools before interviews, letting teams filter their whole pool in advance. Customers range from seed-stage startups to multi-billion-dollar aerospace manufacturers.
