We're building a fully remote online accelerator. A kind of YC-before-YC. We find people on the Internet that seem promising and give them "Silicon Valley", but on the Internet. It's a lot of gamification, Ruby software, Zoom, Slack, and fun. We've funded over 100 people around the world in 30+ countries. We direct them to YC once they graduate. (Tbc, we have no formal attachment to YC; just admiration. And a severe addiction to HN.)

We're looking for a competent software engineer that can do front and backend development. We're happy to take a bet on someone junior or senior. The interview process is much like the job: get a high level prompt, and then _make a thing_. That's it. Don't apply if you're looking to optimize tight C++ loops, we don't have that. Apply if you're interested in building products, end-to-end. Apply if you're energetic and excited about the idea. Apply if you can see this gig be a legitimate cornerstone of your career.

There's no formal ATS, it's a startup. Just email [email protected], mention this post.

Not my experience.

Working with Stripe hasn't been error free. I've had one or two nasty bugs. But the product is fluid, works, and most importantly, they have great customer support. I wouldn't mind paying a little extra for it.

I'm a relatively small fish, but they replied within hours and fixed the issue. On a Saturday. As long this "Saturday test" remains true, I'm a happy user.
