Ask HN: Who is hiring? (June 2020)

================

I usually post this long thing about why we're a great company to work for and I realized that nothing compared to mission and purpose. You can read our accolades and I'll reference them below, but the truth is nothing matters more than why we exist:

We're fighting climate change by building better apps for farmers and the agricultural economy. Our farmers are able to produce better quality crops with fewer resources and less land. For example, we piloted a program with Anheiser-Busch and saved 2 BILLION gallons of water in the last year.

If I didn't believe this was one of the most important problems of our generation to help future generations, I wouldn't put so much emphasis on this. If you want a mission you can tell your grandchildren about in hopes of creating a better environment for farmers (and really the whole world), we're working on it right here, right now.

I'd love to hear from you and learn more about how you can work with us. Our stack is JavaScript (React & Apollo front end, some Node on back end) and Python (Flask for the back end).

For reference, we're a Unicorn company:

We work on the most under-hyped sector in startups today (agtech) 2 years in a row:

CNBC named us the Most Disruptive Company in the world, beating out Flexport, Airbnb, and other companies you've seen here on HN:

And our big climate goal is to use regenerative agriculture to sequester 1 TRILLION tons of carbon from the atmosphere:

Hi, we’re Twenty! We’re a brand new non-profit on a mission to discover and develop the potential in everyone. We are pre-product and pre-website, but we already have an incredible group of supporters. Sal Khan, founder and CEO of Khan Academy and Bill Jackson, founder of GreatSchools, are both on our board. The Eric and Wendy Schmidt Strategic Innovation Fund is our first funder and Schmidt Futures is our first customer. We're launching our MVP (Hello World) later this month.

Our CEO is an education executive with 30+ years of experience. Our CPO is a former startup founder and product manager from Khan Academy, and our CTO sold his previous company to Google.

Our tech stack uses Typescript + React Native on the frontend with a light Rails backend running on App Engine. We’re still early and nothing is set in stone, so there’s lots of room to craft and improve our stack.

We're looking for someone with mobile experience (React Native/Flutter/native), an eye for product and design, and some backend experience or a desire to learn. If you’re interested in a product with impact, a high level of autonomy and solving problems for a global audience with tight constraints (connectivity and devices), send us an email!
