You're asking for startups to compete for a scarce resource (women) in an already scarce subset of engineers (good ones).
That's a pretty tall order for startups. And an almost impossible one if you expect them to take time out of (likely) much more pressing matters to expressly reach out (in some as yet undefined "woman-friendly" way) to females just to that they'll apply.
Not hire females. Just to get them to apply.
