How to find work

Skip the cold outreach. On xcelit, founders post real projects and look for people who've shipped before. Here's how to get in front of them.

Complete your profile

Add your skills, past projects, and what you're looking for. Founders filter by skills — a complete profile gets more matches.

Browse and filter

Use filters for skills, status, and project type. Focus on projects that match your expertise and time availability.

Apply with intent

When you apply, explain why you fit. Reference the project details. Generic applications get ignored.

Stand out as a candidate

  • Show what you've shipped. Links to live projects or repos matter more than titles.
  • Be clear about availability. Part-time, full-time, or project-based — say it upfront.
  • Apply to projects you actually want. Quality over quantity.
  • Follow up if you don't hear back. Founders are busy — a polite nudge can help.
