Why hello there!

Are you guys looking to hire programmers with a few years of experience? Or are you looking to hire Tesla's lead programmers. The difference is important, because I've done things from both "server side" and "vehicle side" but I'm 3 years out of college, not an esteemed lead engineer who has been at Tesla and Toyota and working on cars my whole life. :)

I'm not trying to patronize you but I couldn't really tell. Usually newer companies advertise on here as a tiny dev team looking for extremely experienced programmers with a very specific set of skills, so I almost never apply to anything. This one sounds interesting enough, but yeah, I'm curious what your level of expectations are.

Thanks!
