If somebody talented drew chainsaw maniac Eren then I'd fall to my knees for them. Not only because a phycopathic Eren but SHEESH I'd bow to such a person, watch me I will. Wait my fanfiction is only half way done-

Our engineers would rather pull an all-nighter than hire someone that isn't top 0.01% of their craft True story: Back in February, our engineering team was just Rishi and Eren. Ramie and I were selling so fast that they could barely keep up with all the new feature requests After one particularly tough week, I get to the office Friday morning and realize they had been working through the night. They also had an onsite that day with a promising candidate, after weeks and weeks of not finding the right fit. This guy did well on the case. And he was really good, and he could start immediately. Which would mean an insane amount of relief for Rishi and Eren after a particularly brutal few months. But he wasn't **the best**. So they said no, same day, and kept the search going. I've learned a lot about what it takes to build great software over the last year and a half. AI has had an incredible impact not just on software building, but on what it means to be a great SWE. "The craft lives up a level now (maybe a couple levels)...I'm thinking in systems instead of functions...Which data model will still hold up in a year? When to rein in an agent, and when to let it reason on its own. And as software gets more powerful, the system you're designing is no longer just the product, it's the whole company, with software woven into every layer and every function. The new craft is multidisciplinary and far more open-ended." - My CTO, Rishi We don't need to pull all nighters anymore (don't worry 😆) but still need 0.01% engineers. If you refer someone great who we hire, I'll zelle up to $20K
