Background

About Chris Fairley

Building a skills-first hiring marketplace where proof replaces promises and authenticity replaces AI. The hiring process is broken. Fake job posts. AI-generated résumés. Endless interviews. I founded Vetano to bring trust back to hiring — by letting people prove their skills on video and get hired faster by verified companies. Vetano helps employers hire real, verified talent — and helps skilled workers get discovered for what they can do, not just what they can type. Our mission: To eliminate hiring blind. To make every job post real. To make every candidate verified. Cuts the hiring process by 65% Saves up to per hire Helps candidates get hired 70% faster We’re starting with barbers, chefs, and restaurant workers — expanding across trades, healthcare, and creative industries. Because skill speaks louder than words. Before Vetano: I led enterprise cloud transformations for government agencies and Fortune 500s — resolving a major Active Directory breach, teaching 85+ Microsoft courses, earning 9 AWS certifications in 11 months, and leading AWS product initiatives recognized by Amazon’s Customer Advocacy Award. U.S. Army veteran — Soldier of the Year (East Coast Region). Driven by what I’m building next.
