Also work with OP and can confirm: showed up with no natural talent for it. Just amazing progress, buddy.

Replit | US/Canada (Remote) | Full-Time

Replit is building the world's most ubiquitous AI-powered programming environment. We serve everybody from first time coders to startup founders and growth stage companies. And we serve them on every device around the world. At only 50 engineers, you'd be joining a fast-paced engineering/design led company with a flat org structure.

Open roles:

* Full Stack AI/Data Engineer - Push the boundaries of what LLMs and AI can do for coding. You'll work on Ghostwriter, contribute to frontend and backend applications, and help invent the future.

* Applied AI/ML Engineer - Expand the power of what Ghostwriter can do by fine tuning foundation models, training new models from scratch, and partnering with leading research institutions.

* Platform Engineer - Build the infrastructure that powers Replit’s development environments and application hosting. Unlock more power to serve our growing professional use cases.

* Site Reliability Engineer - Drive operational excellence across the company. Make Replit more reliable, more cost efficient, and keep engineering moving fast while staying stable.

* Anti-Abuse & Security Engineer - Keep Replit safe from the baddies. Build and deploy solutions that can detect and stop bad actors in real time. Defeat spammers, crypto miners, and attackers.

* Product Designer - Blur the line between learning and making – make Replit a place where you can hang out, tinker with ideas, learn new concepts, and launch a business all in the same day.

* Support & Internal Tools Engineer - Build internal systems for managing and triaging user issues, tracking user analytics, and better integrating user documentation into Replit.

Example technologies we use: Go, Rust, Typescript, React, CodeMirror, Linux, Nix, Kubernetes, Postgres, Redis, Spanner, GCP, OpenAI.

It was real (I personally knew one person who did it), though I guess the pandemic must have stopped it.

(OP here)

Yeah, I was in a role where I was full time managing for the second half of my Google tenure. Hence the rusty coding skills.

Yes, this also means I'm ridiculing myself on the whole OKR framing thing.

(OP here)

Correct about not including RSUs in that footnote. Since I've always budgeted to live off salary and not bonus/RSUs, they weren't part of that particular calculation.

Obviously my W2 will look very different in 2022, since RSUs essentially get treated as cash grants and startup options are illiquid.

Thanks, fixed. That's what I get for using this as my toy "learn Go" project :)
