MixRank (YC S11) | Software Engineers | 100% REMOTE (Global) | Full-Time MixRank processes petabytes of data every month from web crawling. We have hundreds of customers using our data products including Google, Amazon, Facebook, Intel, and Adobe, across industries Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Security. Team is 41 full-time, full-remote from 20+ countries. We're growing, profitable, employee-owned, no dependence on…

Weird. I've seen this exact job posted by this exact company every single month for the past year. I even applied at one point and heard nothing back. Looks like nobody else has ever heard anything back either. Bizarre.

Thank you for applying. I've asked someone to double check into your application.

We started receiving 20x more applicants than usual about this time last year when other tech companies were increasingly doing hiring freezes and layoffs. We're hiring consistently every month (including 5 new hires in the last month), especially from applicants from hacker news. Unfortunately we're not able to hire all the talented people that reach out. We have budget to grow faster, but internally, we have to be careful to not hire too quickly so that it's not chaotic for new people on the team with too little support from long-standing team members. We're trying our best to manage the higher volume of applicants, but clearly we let you down on communication so please accept my apology.

I was thinking about applying but after some research it seemed a bit shady. Former cofounder stole 3.6 billion in BTC https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30261118

I assure you that he has had nothing to do with the company in a long time, since before any of those newsworthy events took place. I'm the only person at the company that's ever spoken with him, and if you got to know me you'd understand that I'm at 0 risk of being involved in anything shady like that. I don't blame you for bringing it up, that news is still so shocking to me that I can't believe it's real.

Yep, that Junior role had about 700 applicants last I checked on LinkedIn. No way theres nobody qualified in that pool.

You're right, there's many qualified applicants in that pool! These aren't singular positions, but evergreen positions we're consistently hiring for every month.

The reason I don't vary the job descriptions is because I would rather start with an excellent candidate and customize the position to match them than to start with an excellent job description and look for someone to match it. The person is the important part, not the job description.

The reason for the junior position is because some of the most talented people are overly humble and don't think they are qualified to apply, but are more willing when they see a junior position is available.

They do it to pretend that they are growing as a company. I think we should call out bad jobs, maybe through a Twitter account or something that can hold companies accountable.

We are a growing company. We've grown headcount about 50% year over year the last several years.

The validation in your form is broken. Don’t give users generic error message of something went wrong instead of being more specific. You are trying to be a developer platform company, act like one.

FWIW, the form worked for me and they turned me down. Maybe try again? I wrote my answers in a doc and copied them in, in case that happened. Sorry anyway- I know that sucks. Good luck on your search.

Actually I know the reason for error (I didn’t attach a file), but the generic validation error message turned me off. I expect better from a org that is targeting technical audience.
