Thanks for the kind words, and glad to hear you drew inspiration from us for the fitness app! Since interviewing is a big time investment on both sides, we generally recommend reapplying once there's been a material change in experience or skill that makes it very clear you'd be an especially strong fit. We'll take a look at your application and follow up!

Static boards you've used for IRL teaching are totally sufficient for an initial application, so I'd recommend applying sooner rather than later. Best of luck!

Hmm, we've definitely gotten back to everyone who applied in July — could you email me so I can double-check? [email protected]

Thanks, we'll take a look and get back to you this week! Quick heads up: there's a project link in your resume that sends me to a page with the text "This service has been suspended by its owner."

Hi! I happened to see this post before it was detached.

For a bit of additional context: we hire for multiple roles and have actually hired multiple people through these threads :)

We review every application by hand and get back to every single applicant, usually within 72 hours, despite thousands of LLM-generated spam/fraud applications. It takes a tremendous amount of time and energy, but we do it because we know how much time and energy candidates invest in applying to our open roles.

If you previously applied and didn't hear back, please shoot me an email so I can look into it: [email protected]

Correct, we're a lean team that moves very quickly, so availability for synchronous communication is important to us.

That said, the expectation is not that you're sitting idly at your computer for an extra 15 minutes at the end of the day if you've knocked out your work and are at a good stopping point. We hire adults and treat them as such :)

Also, many folks on the team have familial and other responsibilities that they need to tackle during this window, and the team is very flexible about scheduling around these (especially given advance notice when possible).

No leetcode. One interview during the onsite is vaguely algorithmic, but the process is designed to feel relatively close to the work you'd do on the job. For example, our web take-home assessment includes tasks like reviewing a colleague's pull request and tracking down a bug in response to a customer support ticket.

Thanks for the kind words!

Our interview process is as follows:

* 30 min Zoom call with me

* Technical take home assessment (paid, designed to be reasonably close to the job)

* Panel interview with two engineering leaders

* Virtual onsite

Looking forward to reviewing your application!
