Seniors (>=L5) go through a "pirate" round that's system design/arch in addition to the "ninja" round. But you're a CTO so you should be able to ace that (after handily passing ninja since you know all the algorithms). So what exactly are you waiting for? I mean like do you want a referral? I'd be glad to make a quick 5k for referring you since you're so confident that you're good enough.
- throwaway2016a 5y agoMostly because I stayed at my last job way too long and when I was finally ready to leave I started my own company vs job hunting. I probably will start applying if my new company doesn't make it. Though a lot of me wonders why I am working for no pay at my own company when it sounds like I can make enough to retire being an individual contributor. I do believe in my idea though and want to see it through. I have friends at just about every one of the FAANG companies so a refferal's not the issue. Edit: When I say way too long... I mean 10+ years. Edit 2 because I just realized how it could have sounded: I didn't start a company then give myself the CTO title. I was CTO at my previous job (the one I was at 10+ years).
