FWIW we’re hiring: [HPC Engineer at Symbolic Mind](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/hpc-engineer-at-symbolic-mind/131164)

Some general startup things about startups, for those interested (in us or startups in general)…

The smaller the startup, the ~~more hats everyone wears~~ higher the diversity of each person’s activities (don’t know how universal that expression is). One aspect of this is that below some size there’s no full-time HR infrastructure. On top of this, a successful startup is either looking to grow, or will be soon.

A large, well-established company might have exactly one job posting for every person they hire. The hiring process may be very standardized, having evolved through the life of the company. And there’s an entire group of people focused on this full-time, with lots of experience in this area.

At a startup, none of this is true. Some of us have written job postings and interviewed people before, but very little is set in stone. HR infrastructure isn’t there yet, and any time we spend on it takes away from pressing technical work.

So… Networking is always a good thing. And especially with a startup, if there’s something you’re interested in where you think you might fit, **you should absolutely DM about it**. Just be considerate and keep the above in mind, and it’s all good.
