What country are you in?
In the UK, women aren't taking CS degrees. That's why I mention pedagogy. There's something in my country's culture that is planting the idea that girls don't code. "Planting ideas" is also the basis of teaching - it doesn't imply "pushing them" and it isn't opposed to "letting them sample".
I haven't come across any female devs at all in my company. We have diversity of skin colour and sexuality but not sex. So we haven't got any females to sit in on technical interviews.
Please, don't straw-man me as suggesting that female devs cannot be the best. My point is that there _aren't any_ female devs, and it looks like it's because girls _aren't interested_ in becoming devs, and here at least that is due to social conditioning afaics. You really missed my point there.
Keen to know what's different in your locale.
