Meticulous (YC S21) is hiring #3 founding engineer in London

Hey HN,

I’m Gabriel, founder of Meticulous.

Our mission is to radically accelerate the pace of software development for every company in the world. We’re starting with a tool to catch UI bugs 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 head and base commits of PRs, take screenshots at key points, and diff those screenshots to catch visual regressions before they hit production. We employ novel techniques to eliminate flakes. You can watch a 60-second demo at [meticulous.ai](http://meticulous.ai/).

We are a London-based YC company. Our engineering team previously worked at Dropbox, Opendoor, Palantir and Google, and have previously led 100+ engineer organizations at these companies. 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 visual regressions is just the start. There is an entire category of products to build on top of replay. This ranges from catching exceptions 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).

You’ll get to work alongside some of the best engineers there are, break new ground solving truly novel CS problems and deliver something that transforms how software is built.

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.

KaiPod Learning (YC S21) Is Hiring a Founding Engineer

Hi everyone – we’re hiring our first engineer for KaiPod Learning to power our new learning model.

A bit about us: coming out of the pandemic, more parents than ever want to be in charge of their child’s education. In fact, more than 5M will want their child to pursue alternatives (e.g., online schools, homeschooling) in the next 5 years. But if we don’t solve for socialization, childcare, and academic support, most parents will give up and go back to the status quo.

To solve this problem, we’re building a network of in-person learning centers where students can come to do work, make friends, and get academic support. We launched on HN last year – https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28346873. In the last year, we have expanded from an idea to now supporting 200+ kids across 5 states. We’re on track to get to 1,000 kids by the fall.

We are now looking for a Founding Engineer. Our priority is to accelerate the building of our tech so we can support students, parents, and educators. This job is for someone who likes wearing multiple hats and craves the chance to shape a product and tech stack; someone who loves education and also thinks there is a ton of room for improvement. This is a founding team role, so we also want to meet people who like the chance to shape company culture.

Just today, we got word that a student who started with us in August (and was reading at a 4th grade level) tested at the 7th grade reading level. 3 years of progress in 3 months! That gets us excited. We are quite literally changing lives and can’t wait to reach millions of kids!

For more info on the job and to apply, please head to:
https://www.kaipodlearning.com/founding-engineer. Thank you!
