Hey, stupid question, but why NA-only? I'm based in Europe, and I love what Khan Academy does. I have checked your career site in the past, but NA-only means I don't even apply. It's such a shame for Khan Academy.

Hi! There are no stupid questions. I wanted to make sure I had the right answer, so I had actually just spoken with my manager about this yesterday. As of now, in order to ensure legal compliance, we work through another company for hiring outside of where we're officially incorporated. Because of this, it's just too expensive for us to hire people elsewhere. This is beyond the timezones and other logistical issues,…

Interesting, I'd have assumed that it's much cheaper because of the insane salaries in the US, compared to even salaries in UK or Germany.

Anyway, I know so many people in Europe who absolutely love Khan Academy. Keep that in mind when thinking about expanding your talent pool :).

Also keep in mind that if you can hire in one EU country, you get access to the talent pool of the whole EU, since I can just show up in any EU country and start working.

Cheers!

Those are all good points, and we do love our learners and teachers in Europe.

Thanks!

Coefficient | Sr. Backend Engineer | Remote From India/North America | Remote Only | coefficient.io

Who we are Coefficient is a VC-backed SaaS startup in the SF Bay Area. We are still in stealth and just raised a large seed round. The founders are serial entrepreneurs whose last startup, Shopular, was backed by Y Combinator and Sequoia and acquired by Rakuten Ebates.

What we do Coefficient is a self-service data warehouse for business teams. Today's data tools and BI stacks were designed for data specialists and data engineers. However, as more companies and business functions embrace data-driven cultures, they are held back by the inherit complexity of existing data analytics tools, as well as the technical expertise required to set up, maintain, and operate full BI stacks. Coefficient's mission is to unlock organizations' latent data productivity, by enabling users to model, re-shape, and build reports using data from any data source—all within an intuitive, no-code interface.

Who you are We are looking for a lead backend engineer to help us shape and deliver our vision. You will work alongside the founders to define product, design core backend architecture, and develop resilient, scalable systems from the ground up. You have 7+ years of experience designing and building complex backend systems You have extensive Python experience. More details: https://angel.co/company/coefficient-io/jobs

I just finished going thru recruiting with Amazon and was told they are "aggressively hiring right now"

I can confirm that Amazon is aggressively hiring across our business. I am a hiring manager at Amazon and am hiring Product Managers, SDM's and SDE's. Doing phone screens daily and multiple "loops" virtually. We're also on-boarding people at home by sending them equipment and working with them remotely to get up to speed. We live in interesting times!

I'm interested in Product Manager role, could you refer me? myemailum14 at gmail

If you have the experience and the knowledge it's not really necessary. I don't have a degree myself and I was only 24 when I joined Red Hat .

It's really up to the the hiring manager.
