What if you'd like to help out but aren't an anointedâ„¢ one?
4 comments

You certainly don't have to be anointedâ„¢ or have worked at any particular companies.

I'd say the two most urgent roles we're looking for now are: * Site reliability engineers * Software engineers, including backend and frontend

If you do something else, like design, product management, or data science, feel free to send me an email anyway — I'm certainly happy to check around and see what's needed!

just like with any other government contract - being anointed is the deciding factor.
what do y'all mean by anointed? I've been a gov contractor for many years. It doesn't take all that much to get into this space.

Basically, if you're a citizen and don't lie on applications and resumes and in interviews then there's really not any significant barrier to entry.

I think by anointed the parent means a Google or Facebook alum, or other big name from the Valley.
He asked for "amazing."

Haven't worked at Google, Facebook, whatever, but would love to help.
