Thanks so much for the suggestion! I'll definitely check out the "Who is Hiring" threads—it seems like a great place to start. Yes, I do have a GitHub account: github.com/sandibi13 I’d love any feedback or suggestions you might have on my projects.

Hi David,

This is super inspiring—combining cutting-edge automation with mining is such a bold and much-needed idea. I’m an 18-year-old software engineer passionate about solving real-world problems with tech.

I’d love to get involved if there’s any way I can contribute! I have experience building dashboards, backend systems, and integrating software with hardware. Even if you’re not actively looking for software help, I’d be happy to explore how I can add value to your mission.

Wishing you and the team the best as you scale Durin—this is the kind of innovation that moves industries forward!

Thanks man, for the advice!

Thanks for the advice! You’re absolutely right—labeling myself as "junior" might unintentionally pigeonhole my value, and I’ll keep that in mind moving forward.

I’m definitely prioritizing experience and impactful entries on my CV over immediate financial gain at this stage, especially if it means working on meaningful projects with great mentors.

I’ll take your suggestion to scout LinkedIn and company career pages to better understand the market rates. Do you think it’s better to negotiate salary upfront or prove my value first, especially if I’m open to competitive pay for the right opportunity?

Thanks again for the thoughtful reply—it really helps!
