About the interview

Introduction zoom chat with a cofounder

This is an informal call for us to meet each other and get to know one another. The

conversation will cover some light technical discussion about your past projects and

your ability to code and build fairly involved systems. We would like to hear details

about those projects and both your product and technical decisions (good or bad)

which show ownership and autonomy. We also want to understand what you are

looking for in your next role and why you are interested in early-stage companies. You will get to ask us about the role and learn about what working at SkyLink will feel like.

complex backends, and scale real world systems.
