There are no engineering questions on this list, and the more I think about it, the more correct I think that is. Unless you're stretching the definition of a startup, most of what passes for current engineering is volatile and subject to lots of change. Better to ask questions about the team and their experience so you know what you'll need to build.
- balls187 8y agoI'd expect the engineering questions would be asked during the interview process, right? It's bad form (imo) to ask about benefits, salary, equity, etc during an interview, and hold those questions as a candidate is evaluating an offer.
- dabockster 8y agoI guess the only real valid question that you can ask in this situation is "Does anyone here currently contribute to the code?". If the answer is yes, start asking questions about the dev process. If the answer is no, then they're trying to use you for a cheap "computer person" and you should move on.
