Zed Industries | North America, South America, Europe REMOTE | https://zed.dev/ Zed is a company for developers, by developers. All 3 of our founders have spent years in the trenches writing software and still do it almost every single day. We know the only way to build the world's best code editor is by equipping every single member of the team to do the best work of their career.

We've raised $42M to support our ultimate vision, a new way to collaborate on software, where conversations about code remain connected to the code itself, instead of being tied to aging snapshots or scattered across different tools. The first step was creating a high-quality editor to serve as the user interface. Now this new investment lets us expand to tackle the next phase of our plan. We're developing a new kind of operation-based version control that incrementally tracks the evolution of your code with edit-level granularity, and we're integrating it into Zed to make collaboration, both with agents and teammates, a first-class part of the coding experience.

We agree that companies should reply to applicants, but please don't break the rules at the top of Who Is Hiring threads. We detached this comment from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45093824 .

p.s. Here's a bunch of past mod explanations about this, if anyone wants to understand why we have this rule: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44772030 (Aug 2025) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44770591 (Aug 2025) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44161363 (June 2025) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40239393 (May 2024) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39222099 (Feb 2024) https://news.ycombinator…

How are companies allowed to post the same posting for the same roles month after month? If they are not able to find great candidate fits in this environment, and their employee counts are not moving on LinkedIn / crunchbase etc for months, can they get blacklisted from using this? I have seen several of these companies post again today

We're not in a position to police that. We don't have the resources.

Even apart from that, I'm not sure how one could distinguish legit from non-legit cases, short of raiding company offices.

What about blacklisting companies that post the same links from their ATS platforms for months at a time? It may be difficult to track from an admin perspective but as an applicant that has been browsing this for a few months, a lot of these are easy to filter out

I can show examples from this current / latest monthly postings

I don't know what a ATS platform is, but there are some companies which are nearly always hiring, so the appearance of a job post each month isn't dispositive.
