Earlier quoted context omitted.

Interview process: Phone call with CTO (15-30 minutes) -> easy as shit online assessment (30 minutes) -> On site chat with 2 Devs + CTO, minimal whiteboarding, no "gotchas" -> Offer.

Are you looking for graduates at all by any chance?

Honestly, at this point we would probably consider it, given the right graduate. Some graduates are better than people with 10 years exp.

The lack of good talent is real. I hope this drives salaries up a bit!

We're making coding 100x easier, allowing you to build scalable backend services in minutes/hours rather than weeks/months. We do this by removing as much accidental complexity as possible from building software, esp around infrastructure, deployment, and APIs. More at https://darklang.com.

• Product: Dark, a holistic combination of a programming language, structured editor, and infrastructure compiler. Basically, anything that we need to do to remove accidental complexity from development.

• Phase: Trying it out with first users (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16803189). So quite early, definitely pre-product/market-fit, so you’ll be heavily influencing the product.

• Funding: $3.5m

• Market: We're targeting existing developers for the next few years

• Mission: allowing a billion people to code

• Values: Do your best work, inclusion, autonomy, continuous improvement

• Stack: OCaml, Elm, Kubernetes

== Salary/benefits ==

Good salary for seed-stage startup, good equity. Good benefits, including healthcare, parental leave, 401k.

== Team ==

CEO was former VP Prod @ Lola Travel, CTO was founder/CEO of CircleCI
