Glowforge - Seattle - Full time - Full stack / back-end-leaning developers

Well-funded and founded by three technical founders (one YC alumnus) with 7-9-figure exits. We're building an insanely challenging hardware+software product straight from the pages of science-fiction. It's early-- our product team is just 4 folks and we could use two more.

(also interested in mechanical engineers with injection molding experience and a visual designer)

Job posters: there is something like 300 advertised threads currently. Please list the names of the positions you have open and not just your jobs URL, so candidates can do a text search for position titles. Providing names of tools used will also help.

Thanks

FYI, if you interview with these guys, be prepared to be left hanging. I did a coding interview with them and heard absolutely nothing back afterwards. Whether or not a company wants to hire you, it's common courtesy to at least respond with "we've decided to consider other candidates" or whatever. Saying nothing is poor form.

Not condoning what they did, but saying nothing seems to be par for the course, based on limited personal experience, and a lot of chatter from colleagues the past few years. Sad, but true.

Just because behavior is common doesn't mean it's acceptable or should be tolerated. Companies expect candidates to be professional and can't send a simple email? What else would they be cutting corners on?

Agreed, behavior like this should be shared.

I wonder if any companies know/care how much this kind of behavior negatively impacts people's perception of them.
