75% of knowledge workers already use AI at work. Access isn't the same as capability.

Staff Stack operators are assessed through StackCertified on the AI workflows that actually ship agency work, so the team you hire on Monday is running on Wednesday.

Proof before the interview (not after the first invoice)

Most hiring processes ask you to guess if someone can deliver. We'd rather show you.

Before you interview anyone, you'll see:

  • the deliverable from a timed, role-specific practical test
  • the QA checklist they used (or missed)
  • a 2-minute Loom update (how they communicate async)
  • an AI workflow trace (prompt → output → edits → final)
  • a tool fluency checklist for your vertical

If it's not in the scorecard, it's not a claim we expect you to believe.

Vetted shortlist in 5 business days. No resume flood.

"Agencies don't need more résumés — they need people who can actually ship the work. That's what StackCertified is for — proof before the interview."

AI-Native Workflows

Operators who turn messy briefs into shipped work using AI tools — not button-pushers waiting for instructions.

Backup Bench Ready

Pre-certified backup operators in each role family, so replacements happen in days, not weeks.

Your Delivery Infrastructure, Not a Directory

Agencies don't need another job board. They need operators who can take a brief and ship. Our StackCertified process tests for exactly that — AI-assisted work, clear communication, and quality delivery under deadline pressure.

  • Role-specific practical tests
  • AI workflow proof required
  • Loom + async communication screening
  • Shareable candidate scorecards

"AI-native" doesn't mean "let the model do it"

AI-native operators aren't magic. They're disciplined.

We look for people who can:

turn a messy brief into a clean plan (and ask the right questions early)

use AI to draft faster, then verify and improve before shipping

document decisions and edge cases so work doesn't get lost in Slack

escalate blockers with context (not panic, not silence)

use AI safely — brand-voice guardrails, hallucination checks, and clear escalation on edge cases

In certification, we score for verification and judgment — not just speed.

AI is part of the workflow. QA is the guardrail.

Built for Agency Verticals

We specialize in three agency types. Each vertical has dedicated certification tracks, role-specific tests, and pre-built SOPs.

Retention & Klaviyo

Production capacity for email, SMS, and CRO agencies. Ship more campaigns without breaking deadlines.

Goal: Ship more campaigns per week with fewer QA errors

What the first 7 days looks like

From kickoff to stable delivery cadence — here's what happens.

Day 0

Kickoff

You've picked from the vetted shortlist. You share examples of "good work" and we align on tools, hours, and KPIs before day one.

Day 1

Onboarding

Your operator is set up in your tools, briefed on your SOPs, and given a first task bundle.

Day 2–3

First outputs

They ship real work. Not training tasks. We review quality against checklists.

Day 4–5

QA + refinement

We tighten the workflow: templates, naming conventions, revision loops, escalation rules.

Day 6

KPI baseline

You get a simple baseline: throughput, turnaround time, QA error rate, communication quality.

Day 7

Stable week-one cadence

You should know: "Can this person take briefs and ship, without chasing?"

If a role is unusually specialized, we'll tell you upfront if it needs longer than a week.

Staff Stack isn't for every agency

We're a fit if you want:

  • one (or a few) full-time operators you can rely on
  • proof of execution before you hire
  • repeatable delivery — not heroics

We're not a fit if you want:

  • the cheapest possible labor
  • a dozen resumes by tomorrow
  • someone to "figure out your process" with zero direction

If that honesty saves you a bad hire, it's doing its job.

Need more execution capacity?

Tell us the role and your delivery standard. We'll send a shortlist of vetted operators with scorecards within 5 business days — so you can hire with evidence, not hope.
