I think a lot of companies post job openings as a form of advertising. I'm not saying that is what is happening here, but there always seems to be a set of companies that have the same positions listed for over a year, despite being relatively small companies.

When I see a position that's been open for awhile (one company has popped up here on and off for what feels like ~2 years), it seems to raise a red flag. If you can't fill the position, something is off.
Growth stage startups, as well as any engineering org above a certain size (a few hundred maybe?) are perpetually hiring.
As anecdotal support, I used BuildZoom for a recent home build solely because I saw their job postings on HN.

(The experience was just ok, but we did find a builder we love through them)
