Theres no such thing as FAANG level devs. I have worked at two FAANGS, its just people that memorized the algorithms to pass the interview. I see horrific code here all the time, and have worked with much better software talent at startups that need people to actually deliver useful software.

What FAANG does get right is there are very smart people designing the frameworks, tooling, and standards through which everyone else delivers their software. This means that a low skill dev can be amplified in terms of delivery, and can be easily stopped from breaking production.

Hi ldjkfkdsjnv, with 30+ upvotes, I’m looking to solve this problem. If you’re interested to be a beta tester, feel free to shoot me an email titled “HN” at [e-mail]. Thanks :)

Yeah, but that doesn't stop management from comparing a candidate to the fiction they had in their minds.
