We're looking for a backend-leaning fullstack dev. You will be one of the first engineers outside of the founding team. Here is a bit more about us: We're a seed stage AI startup backed by several top tier VCs. We're on a mission to ensure patients get the coverage they deserve from their health insurance.
We’re building deep, vertically integrated technology systems to solve fundamental problems in US healthcare - the biggest market in the world ($5T). We use AWS, K8s, React, and Rust but there is no requirement to have prior experience with them specifically. We'll teach you!
We are a founding team made up of ex-YC, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Harvard Business School with previous successful exits. We have a 6+ month customer waitlist and growing insanely fast.
We're hiring our first engineer outside the founders. You'll work directly with customers to understand their needs, design the right solution, and build from zero to one. You'll own entire parts of the roadmap and tech stack while wearing multiple hats. Most important characteristics are resilience, work ethic, and curiosity. We care about slope, not where you are today.
This is an opportunity to work in an insanely fast paced, high ownership environment while solving real problems in healthcare.
We're happy to share more details on the role in person/on zoom. Please fill out this form if interested!
We're on a mission to disrupt the corrupt two-party system by building tools that change the rules—and we need your help.

It seems like that's not the main focus of your org, but I was pleased to see a reference to RCV in your blog: [0]

It still ends up mostly being a 2 party thing. Supporting your team is deep rooted. However at least there is the potential for a third party to get in.
But it suffers from the same statistical issue. If a quarter of voters vote green but equally across seats then that popular vote is not represented in the number of seats.
It is a vote of a vote still.
I wonder if we can move away from representation purely on where you live.
Where you live means something. City vs. Countryside. Poor neighbourhoods vs. Rich. But if your issue is suffered by many but you don't all cluster together in latitude and longitude then that issue has less weight.
Sorry forgot this is who's hiring!
Republicans: 220 seats.
Democrats: 215 seats.
Independents/Third Party: 0 seats.
Australian Labor Party (ALP): 94 seats
Coalition: 43 seats (combined Liberal/National parties)
Australian Greens: 1 seat
Centre Alliance: 1 seat
Katter's Australian Party: 1 seat
Independents: 10 seatsE.g. Greens got about 12.2% of vote.
12.2% of 150 is 18, not 1.

The system while better is biased towards parties who can get the majority of individual constituencies based on geographic location. It relies on localized monocultures to get democracy for smaller parties. But that doesn't happen.
Current US senate (100 seats):
Republicans: 53 seats (Majority Party)
Democrats: 45 seats (Minority Party)
Independents: 2 seats
Australian Labor Party: 29
Coalition: 27
Australian Greens: 10
Pauline Hanson's One Nation: 4
Jacqui Lambie Network: 1
Australia's Voice: 1
United Australia Party: 1
Independents: 3
pumping more candidates (even good ones) into a busted system is like increasing the flow rate into a cracked bucket. good metrics showing how much more is going in, with little attention paid to how much is flowing out.
i do appreciate the ambition to change things at a higher level, but there is nothing resembling significant disruption here.
my suggestion would be to identify a single, core point of systemic leverage that can actually make a demonstrable change to the way things operate (i.e. patch the bucket or, better still, replace it). for example, if you can get a sensible cap put on the amount of funds that can be given in support of a political campaign (yeah, i know, good luck with that) or can instigate a nationwide movement for proportional representation, or tie up the practice of gerrymandering, that might get momentum for a bigger step.
i'm sure there is lots i don't know about the role and potential for independents in the US (i live elsewhere), but the principle still holes that a problem must be solved by a higher level of complexity than the one that created it.
so i implore you, don't stop what you are doing, but try to find the next step up into systems thinking or, even better, meta-systematic strategy, which is actually what is needed for serious political reform.
there are, of course, many ways to shoot down my argument, and it is true to some extent that 'policy is personnel', but the level of systemic failure evidenced in recent years makes me think that such an initiative, while valuable in itself, cannot flourish in the way it needs to in order to be effective
It’s very much a system level strategy, but more by way of democratized technology as opposed to head on disruption. I asked the same questions when I joined.
We want to provide powerful technology to candidates that are not going to be supported by the two main parties. And we have some other qualifications, like not taking corporate money. The more that independent candidates can succeed and win, the more we normalize the electorate expecting something that isn’t just to two main parties. In a way, it’s the electorate that we are trying to empower by supporting viable alternatives to the current system.
I’m glad there is interest in what we’re doing. I think we are on track too, making increasing impacts and I am excited about our growing team.

We’re creating robots that autonomously construct buildings. We design all of our hardware and software in-house in central Amsterdam, starting with autonomous bricklaying robots.
Building a robot like this means solving all sorts of interesting challenges: figuring out the robot's position with sub-mm precision; navigating autonomously around the building site; automating measurement and calibration of new robots; lots of distributed systems and so on.
Our robots are now continuously deployed on customer sites and we are earning real money as a masonry contractor. The full team is more than 60 people and we're growing rapidly to meet demand.
Our stack is mostly: Rust, TypeScript, Python, NixOS.
Some open roles:
- Software Engineer, Full Stack
- Software Engineer, Controls
- Software Engineer, Machine Vision
- Assembly/manufacturing technicians and robot operators
https://www.monumental.co/jobs
P.S. When we say full stack, we really mean it. Bolting things together, mixing mortar, embedded firmware, (software) build systems, React components and everything in between. Happy to answer questions.

Hi HN! We’re a YC-backed, Series-A startup building robots that build large-scale solar farms.
Check out a video of our first system here! https://youtu.be/ZZ2fP1Y5Z2E
It turns out that construction companies literally can't build solar fast enough, so what we're doing is a crucial part of switching the grid over to renewable generation.
You’ll be a key contributor, helping bring our next generation of mobile solar factory to life.
Come work with us if you love:
* Fast-paced prototype development with software and hardware components
* Making a positive climate impact through your work
* Hacking on massive construction equipment!

We're building a spreadsheet-based operating system for the web, although on first touch Sourcetable feels more like Excel Copilot or "Cursor for spreadsheets".
We're looking for one Product Marketer to join our team in a part-time contract capacity in San Francisco. The requirement are that you need to be great at video storytelling and also be strong at spreadsheets & analysis.
Everyone on our team codes, and you should too. There's no technical requirement for the role, per-se, but we have found it is better this way.
