I got my last job at a startup by emailing the startup's info@ email address the following (searched my email for the exact copy):
Are you guys hiring devs for threadbox? I'm a web dev/software engineer in Palo Alto - couldn't find a jobs section on your site, but I have done some interesting work in the email space and I think there are a lot of opportunities there - let me know if we can get together.
Best,

I think reaching out personally can work very well for small companies. I had sent this email the day after I had read on TechCrunch that they had raised funding.

- StavrosK 15y agoWait, if you launched Threadbox why are you asking to be hired for it? I don't understand.
