When I interviewed for my current company, I had a conversation with the Founder and PM that lasted more than an hour. Interestingly, only about 30% of the discussion focused on my experience which made sense, since my background wasn t directly related to the role I applied for.
The remaining 70% of the conversation was about how I approach real-world problems, my mindset toward the work I would be doing, and how I envisioned growing in the role. They also asked why I chose this product and company, what it meant to me personally, and how I hoped to contribute moving forward.
Hey everyone - we re tremendously grateful for our fantastic launch yesterday, ending at #1 for the day. Thank you all for your support!
I started Tonkotsu because I saw a huge opportunity for a complete rethink of AI coding not just incremental adjustments to established tools and workflows. Having managed teams of hundreds of engineers at Meta, Microsoft, and Atlassian, it s been fascinating to me to find that the role of the developer has shifted overnight: you're now the manager of a team of agents. We're building Tonkotsu to help you succeed in that new role.
Yesterday, I had an unpleasant experience. For a few minutes, I lost my LinkedIn community of several thousand people (TL;DR: I was falsely accused of using suspicious software).
Fortunately, I got my account back but it was a strong reminder that we don t own platforms, nor our profiles on them.
