Ah yes, the four company types. And that's all the company types there are.

I think that
"Famous"
"Late"
"Mid"
"Early"
"Seed"
would be better categories. You could use Crunchbase or something similar to categorize by what round they are in.
That still excludes bootstrapped companies but are much more sane categories in my opinion.

#14On mobile the homepages animated "an individual contributor role." text overflows with the button placement. Also when typing in a filter for the location name, the site stutters. This is probably because the JS is trying to filter the whole list on each keypress. You could implement a slight delay before starting a search. I've previously implemented something similar by restarting a timer (clearTimeout + setTimeout…
Mobile needs a lot of love for sure. Thanks for suggesting the solution for speeding up the search field, we have an item in this week's list to fix it!

Thanks, yes, for now. Canada will be added in couple of weeks, followed by countries in western Europe.

There are definitely more categories than what we have and agree the naming can be improved. Next ones we are considering adding are: 'Mid Stage backed by Big Name Investors' and
'University + Govt.' jobs.

#20The location search bar is particularly frustrating on my phone. Perhaps exacerbated since the site's under load? But it's appears to be kicking off an ajax request per keydown and not updating the input text until that request is completed. Very frustrating as I suck at typing on this danged phone and the feedback delay aggravates that.
