Fifi is one of the most impressive founders we're fortunate to have backed - even though she's barely 18! She's now hiring a founding engineer for Maxed. The most important thing when joining a company as a founding engineer is the founder. Fifi's track record speaks for herself: Self-taught coder since 7, three companies before 18, speaks five languages, played competitive chess, and SO MUCH more. Now, at 18, she's rebuilding accounting from the ground up as an AI-native operating system at Maxed, with backing from angels including the founders of Notion, DigitalOcean, and SecurityScorecard. If you want to build with a founder who'll definitely raise your bar and intensity, take a look: maxed.life/hiring

Early-stage hiring can be a lot like venture investing: It's power-law driven: a few people contribute most of the value. So it’s far more important to hire the best people than it is to avoid making bad hires. Which means you’re not making mistakes, you’re likely not taking
