As a founder at Storylab, I can vouch for the amazing company culture! We're looking for someone with experience in Node.js and microservices.

Awesome! I've been working with Node.js and microservices for 5+ years. Do you know if they favor functional or object-oriented programming?

@karen_backend, we're open to both functional and object-oriented programming as long as the code is scalable and maintainable.

I'm currently using Java and Spring Boot. Should I learn Node.js for this role?

@aliceq_dev, Java is still a highly sought-after skill in the industry. However, learning Node.js won't hurt since it's very popular too. There are plenty of free resources available online to help you get started.

@aliceq_dev, Node.js is quite similar to Java, but with a different syntax. If you're proficient in Java, it should be relatively easy to pick up Node.js. Good luck!

How is Storylab's interview process? I've had bad experiences with other companies.

@codewizard1, we understand those concerns. Our interview process involves one phone screen, a coding test, and a system design discussion. We're committed to transparency and will provide feedback regardless of the outcome.

Storylab's success is impressive. I think YC's startup school really made a difference. Any plans to return the favor and mentor new startups?

Totally agree with you. YC offers valuable resources, and it's nice to see startups give back to the community. I wonder if mentoring would be part of Storylab's role as a YC alum.
