Please provide a salary range for the benefit of all interested. A few years ago I presented a paper at an analytics conference and immediately had about 10 teams reach out to schedule interviews, but all discussion ended when it came time to talk money. I could never figure out what the teams were expecting to pay, but from all appearances it was "comically low" - something that made very little sense given how much…

I think it really depends on the qualifications of the individual applicant. I've been here a while and I'm senior level but I make more than I would as a professor somewhere and more than I would at the lab I used to work at. If you're interested shoot me an email and we can talk about it there, but I'm not the King of Hiring so I'm not going to throw something out there.

The reason that pay transparency laws (which probably don't apply to this position, but exist in other states) require salary ranges and not a specific number is precisely to account for the fact that different applicants with different levels of qualification may merit different compensation in the same role based on the impact they can have. So "depends on the qualifications of the individual applicant" is kind of besides the point; a wide range can account for that.

"I'm not the King of Hiring" is fair though, if you're in a jurisdiction where there is no transparency law and you're not setting policy for your company, you may well be required not to provide this information publicly and that's just how it is.

I applied last month for the infrastructure engineer positive as it sounds really exciting but haven't heard anything back yet.

Access the "comments" section on their profile. They've been posting this same comment on HN jobs since January and there are lots of people there replying they didn't get any response.[1] Their posts are bot-generated and the jobs are fake. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=kollmar28

Founder here. Could you point us to an application where we didn't respond? You can DM me an email on x.com/justjake and I'm happy to check what happened

Ian is our recruiter, I checked AshBy, and basically everyone's getting at least a "Sorry you're not a fit" email (save for people spamming the inbox multiple times)

As for why we've posted the same job many times. We're an early stage infrastructure company, and it's surprisingly hard to find people who go really deep (Example: We've built our own orchestrator, so we're looking for people who would build kubernetes instead of use it)

> Can we not deal with those issues ourselves No, an individual labor seller would never be able to gather the information necessary since they experience so few transactions. How can one expect markets to work without price transparency? Labor buyers have access to far more price data than labor sellers, which tells them which way supply and demand is moving, giving labor buyers an upper hand. If you want labor to b…

Not having access to something does not grant you rights to it. You probably know a lot of things I don't, and some things that I can never know. That does not allow me to compel you to tell them to me. Yes, even if I really want to make some impossible to define metric, like efficiency, look better.

This is such a obtuse way to frame the comment you were responding to. It's obvious they were just talking about the right to know about labor demand price ranges. Do you really think they were advocating for the right to know everything about everything?

I know people who do/did work for a professional team. The justification is there is a huge line of people who want to “work in sports” so they can underpay the front office staff, and it is true. I knew a few people who stayed interns for multiple years in the hope that they would get converted into full time roles at some point.

This post says remote, but none of the listings on your website appear to be remote.

https://boards.greenhouse.io/arcadiacareers/jobs/7293665002 says "Arcadia is open to fully remote candidates and employees have access to co-working spaces." though I had to ctrl+f to find it

Yup! All of our engineering teams are fully remote and any candidate based in the US can apply! In some hub cities (e.g. New York, Washington DC) there are some employees who meet up at WeWork offices a couple of days a week but the majority of employees work from home all the time.
