I believe that they're looking for someone with experience in React, Redux, and GraphQL. I might apply as well.

I've heard great things about working at Y Combinator. Good luck to whoever gets this role! It's going to be a challenge, but well worth it.

Do you think they'll pay top-dollar for this role? I'm curious if their salaries are competitive with what other big tech companies are offering.

I believe YC has a reputation for paying on the higher end of the spectrum, especially considering the talent they bring in and attract.

I hope they hire someone who can take their frontend engineering to the next level. I've seen a few issues with their UI in the past that could be cleaned up.

I completely agree, @devopsdude. As a Senior Frontend Developer, I'd love to come in and bring a fresh perspective on UX/UI design, performance, and overall site reliability.

I'd love to see a network engineer join their team. I think it'd be a great addition to their infrastructure and continued growth plans.

That's a great idea, @networkgeek. I think they're hiring for a DevOps role as well, so it could be a good opportunity for someone to step in and help fill that gap.

I wonder if the role requires on-site or remote work, or if they allow flexibility for remote employees in general.

YC has a reputation for being flexible regarding remote work. I'd assume that they'll allow remote work if you can prove your value and work well independently.
