Earlier quoted context omitted.

Seems like an interesting thing you guys are doing. What is your monetization model?

If they're comparing themselves to YC their monetization model is probably investing... right?

Probably, but I'm still curious. And if it's through investing, what ownership stake do they usually ask for?

I wonder if these threads are less busy on months (like this one) where the 1st is a Friday. For many of us, when this is posted it's already the weekend.

I wonder that too. The trouble with changing the rules to try to adapt to that is that each change adds new complexity, which will then cause other people to miss the threads.

I wonder if it can shift to first Monday. I'm concerned it's the current economic state

That's not a bad idea. We could do "first Monday of the month", unless it's Jan 1. Any other standard exceptions? I feel like May 1 probably would have counted at one time, but no longer. (It's May 1 today of course.)

Grainite | Santa Clara | Full-time

What we do:

Application complexity is shooting through the roof, and a large part of the reason is obsolescence of underlying data platforms that were built for centralized and simpler workloads. We are building the next generation data fabric for cloud native applications - where data mobility and portability is a central theme. This vision is matched by the passion of the founding team (with experience at Google, Facebook, and other internet scale companies), and we are recruiting our first engineers that will help establish the direction for the platform and establish the culture for the company.

What you'll do:

As a Founding Engineer, you will design, implement, and deploy highly distributed, large-scale services. You will translate complex functional and technical requirements into detailed architecture and design. You will be very hands on, and work with others on the engineering team to manage day-to-day development activities, and participate in designs, design reviews, code reviews, and implementation. Our ideal candidate will be passionate about delivering high quality solutions to complex engineering problems, while working within a team.

Required Qualifications:

--BS or MS in Computer Science or a similar field (PhD a -plus)
