That's an interesting point. At the moment, I wouldn't give ourselves enough credit to think we can meaningfully tip the scales in that way, but I could see how that could happen down the road.
Out of curiosity, what role would you be looking for?

(To reduce hiring friction enough to be able to tip the scales, not actually tip them) > what role would you be looking for? Personally, my specialty is ops (fka sysadmin). I rarely see a startup truly needing a dedicated someone-like-me until well after they've hired all their early employees.
- snowmaker 8y agoActually, I think you should give Work at a Startup a try now. We have a category for ops already, as it was close to enough software engineering that we thought we'd get some amount of overlap in interest. It doesn't have quite as much activity as the core software engineering roles, but still some. Feel free to email me (in my profile) and let me know how it goes if you try it.
- mmt 8y agoThe first thing it still asks is: >Are you looking for a software engineering position? Answering "No" hides the "Continue" button. If you hadn't told me otherwise here, I would have had no idea you were including Ops. I'll try "Yes" and provide more detailed feedback in e-mail.
