Meticulous (YC S21) Is Hiring #3 Founding Engineer in London
Hey HN, I'm Gabriel, founder of Meticulous. Our mission is to
make the world's code safe, performant and reliable. We're starting
with a tool to catch JavaScript regressions in web applications
with zero-effort from developers. How it works: Insert a single
line of JavaScript onto your site, and we record thousands of real
user sessions. We then replay these sessions on new code to
automatically catch bugs before they hit production. You can watch
a 60-second demo at meticulous.ai. We are a London-based YC
company. Our engineering team previously worked at Dropbox,
Opendoor and Google. We just raised $4m, and are backed by some of
the best founders and technical leaders in Silicon Valley,
including Guillermo Rauch (founder Vercel, author next.js), Jason
Warner (CTO GitHub), Scott Belsky (CPO Adobe), Calvin French-Owen
(founder Segment), Jared Friedman (YC partner and former CTO of
Scribd) and a bunch of other incredible folks. Catching JavaScript
regressions is just the start. There is an entire category of
products to build on top of replay. This ranges from automatic UI
previews to revealing the performance impact of frontend code. We
want to change the way the world develops software, and influence
software approaches for decades to come. We are seeding a London
office and hiring an onsite (few days per week) founding engineer
to join our team of four. You will have autonomy in building out
this technology, but here are a few problems you might work on: -
Build a distributed system to concurrently replay thousands of
sessions, such that a developer gets a result in seconds. - Speed
up the replay of sessions in a way that retains determinism. -
Derive algorithms to detect sessions that cover differing code
paths and edge cases, and ignore sessions that are too similar. -
Help build out a team of world-class, highly collaborative,
software engineers. As founding engineer, you get to shape the
company, and build the culture and technology from the ground up.
What we look for: In a sentence: Technically brilliant, delightful
to work with, combined with a self-awareness and strong desire to
improve. We also want to make sure everyone is highly supportive of
each other; we win as a team. We're currently only looking to
bring on folks with senior level skill sets and 5+ years of
industry experience. You should have strong web fundamentals and a
deep love for software engineering. Maybe you enjoy programming
books like Clean Code, Designing Data Intensive Applications,
Pragmatic Programmer etc. or enjoy hacking on interesting side
projects. You value transparency and candid feedback, and are
motivated by a strong desire to become the best engineer you can
be. You can read about our values here https://sumptuous-
lungfish-609.notion.site/Meticulous-values... You will be given
the space and time to up-level yourself as an engineer in terms of
conferences, reading, or whatever you think will be most valuable.
We will also set you up with mentorship, if you desire it, from top
engineering leaders (folks running 100-engineer organizations at
the world's leading tech companies). If this sounds interesting,
please reach out to me at gabe [at] meticulous [dot] ai with "HN"
in the subject line and 2-3 sentences about what you find
interesting about Meticulous and your resume/LinkedIn/GitHub.
