Your company sounds really interesting! Do your remote devs do hardware work, if so how do you do that remotely?
I've used Arduinos, esp32s and openFrameworks(c++ framework) and would love to learn more about your company. And are you still hiring? I want to work at a startup where I save the planet and make an impact.

My boss hired me full-time while I was gigging on Upwork. They asked me "Why Upwork?". I was like "I have to stay with my dad at hospital" and they were like "You can still do that for unlimited time". That's how I got my financial independence, dad is also okay now.
Freelancing sites should be full of desperate people like me who do small gigs due to similar life circumstances.

Slightly off topic but I think the crowd of this thread would be knowledgeable.
Would you ever hire a very entry level developer for a remote job or you would only hire them if they had some onsite experience?

I'm wondering what they were thinking with that cookie policy.
It's not at all GDPR compliant. It says accept, but there is nothing to accept. It is not a contract as there is no choice. It plainly tells you they are going to violate EU law about your privacy rights.
They just decided to go for maximum annoyment level with minimum value. Put a popup with an arrogant unilateral middle finger in everyone's face. If you're going to do that, why not put a small link at the bottom or just shut up?
I know about the managers falacy ( we must do something, this is something, so we did it), but still. What were they smoking?

Life's too short to worry about people doing dumb things. If you managed to fix their middle finger, they would find a different way to make you miserable. Just block/circumvent, use your time in a more joyful or productive manner and let the specialist ankle-biters deal with the managers.

"After announcing the funding for https://shimmerindustries.com my mailbox if full of spam from companies offering office furniture, questionable loans, and promises to "optimize my funnel". What we really need is C programmers, who want to do low level coding, and save the planet."
"We offer paid trials instead of endless interviews and whiteboard programing tests. If you want to work at a startup where you can have an impact, but without the bro-culture, jargon and BS this is it. DMs are open, or mail me at [email protected]"
"We are open to junior applicants, and remote, as long as you can show some drive. Electronics experience a plus. Please share with anyone you may think could be interested."
Today i got a team of six remote developers I'm excited about working with, I got more qualified candidates than that, but that where my bandwidth to onboard them ends. Part of getting people is probably my followers(@eskilsteenberg) and reputation, but making it simple, and not making adversarial. Too often the hiring process feel like a Mexican standoff.
