What we’re building next

Boards worth showing up for.

We work with a lot of founders, operators and builders, so a set of curated boards is a natural next step: stores, roles and talent, vetted rather than dumped in a feed. Here is what is coming. Leave your email and we will tell you the moment the first one opens.

Six to start.

In beta

Shopify Stores Marketplace

Pre-built stores, themes and vetted Shopify partners, so you launch on proven foundations instead of from scratch.

Coming soon

Pre-screened job board

Verified roles from companies we know, with the noise filtered out. Fewer listings, more signal.

Coming soon

Internship board

Handpicked internships with real projects and mentorship, not coffee runs.

Coming soon

Freelance & gig work

Short and long-term gigs with startups and SMEs who pay on time and brief properly.

Coming soon

Startup hiring network

Early-stage teams hiring across product, engineering and growth, in one place.

Coming soon

Tech talent pool

Curated engineers, designers and PMs, ready to join teams that are building something real.

More boards (creator collaborations, agency partners, student builders) are further out. The waitlist hears about those too.

Curation over feed.

Most boards fail the same way. They optimise for volume, so you get thousands of listings, no sense of which are real, and an afternoon lost to filtering. We would rather show you six good things than six hundred unsorted ones. Every board here starts from the same rule: a person checks it before it goes up, and anything that does not clear that bar does not make the board.

The Shopify Stores Marketplace is the first because it is the one we can stand behind today. Instead of commissioning a store from zero, you start on a pre-built foundation, a tested theme and a Shopify partner we already work with, which is usually the difference between launching in weeks and launching in months. The job, internship, freelance, startup-hiring and talent boards follow the same logic in a different domain: verified roles from companies we know, internships with real projects and mentorship, gigs with teams that brief properly and pay on time, and a talent pool of engineers, designers and PMs ready to join something real.

We are building these in order rather than launching six empty shells at once, because an empty board helps nobody. The waitlist is the honest version of coming soon: leave your email, tell us which board matters to you, and you will hear from us the moment it opens rather than seeing a placeholder card in the meantime.

Frequently asked questions

What is live right now?
The Shopify Stores Marketplace is in beta: pre-built stores, themes and vetted Shopify partners you can launch on instead of starting from scratch. If that is what you need today, talk to us and we will point you at the right starting foundation. The other five boards are still being built, and the waitlist is how you hear the moment each one opens.
What does vetted actually mean here?
It means a person looked at it before it reached the board. For stores and partners, that is proven foundations and Shopify partners we know rather than an open directory. For roles and internships, it is verified postings from companies we recognise, with the filler filtered out. For talent, it is engineers, designers and PMs we would be comfortable introducing. The whole point of the boards is fewer listings with more signal, not another feed to scroll.
Why is The Tech Thingy building job and talent boards?
Because we already sit in the middle of this. We work with a lot of founders, operators and builders through our product and services work, which means we constantly see teams hiring and people worth hiring. Curated boards are a natural way to connect the two without the noise of a general job site.
Who are the boards for?
Founders and early-stage teams hiring across product, engineering and growth, operators looking for short and long-term gig work with people who brief properly and pay on time, students after internships with real projects rather than coffee runs, and engineers, designers and PMs who want to join teams building something real.
How do I get early access?
Leave your email on the waitlist above. We will tell you the moment the first relevant board opens, and the same list hears about the boards that are further out, including creator collaborations, agency partners and student builders.
