Even more so for such a great engineer that in the words of his colleagues is "indispensable for the company".

If you're such a rockstar you can probably get shortened loops in good companies through referrals

I’ve never seen someone skip the interview process or get it shortened through a referral. At best it will move your resume to the top of the big pile, which is very helpful, but I don’t think they help much more than that.
