Do YC funded companies hire non-technical people at all?
I keep looking at the jobs listed at YC's jobs section and I don't remember seeing any job for non-engineers. Is my observation right? How will the management positions filled?
- pg 15y agoA few are looking for sales people.
- jon_dahl 15y agoYC companies definitely hire non-engineers. But often the first few hires will be engineers; at Zencoder, we were 7 engineers and 1 business/office manager before we hired for sales/marketing. We're currently looking for a marketing manager. http://zencoder.com/jobs/ http://zencoder.com/jobs/
- dsrikanth 15y agoThanks for the info! I understand that the number of engineer posts will be large in comparison to Analysts/Sales/Marketing/HR. Good to know though.
