Earlier quoted context omitted.

I’m looking for a startup that has de-risked their product and distribution. Series-A is usually a signal of that.

I don't know much about startups or how they are funded. Can you please elaborate it in simpler terms?

People don't usually want to invest in your wild idea or in the wrong team. If you've had a series A then someone has vetted your idea and your team.

Series A is the first round of investment meaning you've convinced someone other than yourself the product is useful/viable.

Hello, HN.

Location: Mexico City Remote: Preferred Willing to relocate: Yes[] Technologies: {Java|Type}script (vue, svelte, react, bit of node/deno), scss. Also very limited shell, sysadmin, podman/docker stuff, enough to get myself in trouble. Resume: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ulzefZ3HZ_e6gTwcvQfw87fz... Email: antonio+hn@pulsar.mx

Kind of opinionated but always willing to learn and improve my skills and my workflows. Would rather not use React or Angular, wouldn't recommend unless absolutely necessary. Short, varied projects preferred (2-6 month long, agency style, I guess) but I don't really mind longer projects as long as I get the opportunity to work on new things.

I'm used to getting somewhat involved in the full lifecycle of a project, from specs to design to the actual development, although that might be just me having worked at small agencies. I personally value a high degree of autonomy when making technical decisions, down to the choice of framework to use, especially when I'm the one who's going to shoulder most of the technical responsibility. I tend to push bach really hard against poorly (or un-) justified decisions, especially non-technical ones.

One particular strength I have is my attention to detail, especially when reviewing requirements. Might be a case of a big fish in a small pond though.

[] I'm willing to relocate, but since I never finished any formal education, visas like H-1B are not available to me for the time being.
