📝 Application
Being a remote-first company means we're writing all the time. Because of this, we'd love to read about why you're excited to join Warp, and ask you a few questions. This is to illustrate how we communicate, but also so that the rest of the follow up chats feel more like a conversation and don't have to start from scratch. We are heavily inspired by the Oxide Computer team.
⚙️ Tech Chat
In this 45 min chat we will go depth into your technical expertise. We will provide you a small exercise for us to solve ina pair programming session and this is your moment to shine as a software builder! If the time permits, we would also enjoy seeing some of your past work that you're proud of.
🚀 Founders Chat
This is a 45-minute chat with one of our founders about your experience. Think of it as an opportunity to tell your life story: how'd you stumble upon computing, how your life and career went from there, what were some amazing successes and embarrassing failures. The goal is to learn more about how you came to be where you are, and where you want to be and do next.
🌟 Final Round
This is a flexible meeting with one of our founders / investors / advisors / team members. This meeting is 100% for you, to make sure you have everything you need to make a decision. Choose your own adventure! We can do some scenario proble solving, or bring a list of questions, Your choice.
