Syqnal mentors are verified hardware engineers who review student builds, issue named endorsements, and earn a compounding reputation score. Every review you write is attached to your professional identity — permanently.
Mentors live inside the professional lane alongside hiring teams, because both roles evaluate real engineering proof and help strong builders move toward opportunity.
REPUTATION THAT COMPOUNDS. NOT FOLLOWERS.
Review student project posts — schematics, build logs, video, BOM. Issue a named endorsement that appears permanently on the student's profile. Your name is on every one.
Every endorsement earns you VouchIndex points. Domain-weighted, freshness-adjusted, placement-boosted. BRONZE → SILVER → GOLD → PLATINUM. This is your engineering credibility score.
Offer async project reviews, 1-on-1 live sessions, portfolio critiques, interview prep, or group office hours. Set your own availability and pricing.
Set your own per-session rate in USD. Async reviews, live 1-on-1s, and group office hours can each have different pricing. Stripe handles all payments.
Issue up to 3 Power Vouches per month on exceptional student work. Power Vouches carry 3× the VouchIndex weight — they signal deep confidence in a student's ability.
When a student you mentored gets hired, you confirm their placement. Each confirmed placement increases your VouchIndex and contributes to your PLATINUM tier progress.
