To think that 1 year ago they were aggressively spamming me for an engineering position there.

How you go from "hyper growth mode" (according to the recruiter email) to closed operations within 13 months?

Easy - high burn rate and no revenue.
“Hyper growth mode” = hiring as fast as possible. Startups gotta borrow and spend their way to success, and fast, ya know. Can’t keep the VC’s waiting on their returns.
Lose 90% revenue in 1 quarter
Not everyone knows how to run a company successfully, despite hyper growth fervor. Just look at FTX lol.
