Why this grade This listing scored 58/100, which is a C. It lost the most ground on pay transparency. See the breakdown
- Description depth 20 / 20 How much the posting actually says about the work, measured in characters of real text.
- Freshness 15 / 15 How recently it was posted. Older postings are likelier to be filled or abandoned.
- Remote clarity 15 / 15 Whether "remote" means anywhere, or is quietly restricted to one country.
- Corroboration 5 / 10 Whether more than one source carries this listing.
- Role specificity 3 / 10 Whether the listing is tagged well enough to tell what the role actually is.
- Pay transparency 0 / 25 A published salary range, worth more than any other single factor because it is what a candidate cannot find out without applying.
Every figure above is arithmetic over the posting itself — its salary field, its text, its age, its tags and how many sources carry it. How the grades work →

Delivery| Remote (North America hours) | Full-time | https://propellabs.ai
Hello HN, Lisa here from Propel! We're a bunch of interdisciplinary builder-maker-designers leading a venture studio and building software for mining and deep-tech companies. Think IDEO for AI: a small senior team, direct CEO involvement, technical depth married with design craft. We are not a dev shop and not a consultancy, we're not about scope or hours, we're only about outcomes. We embed through the lifecycle of challenges and the same senior people stay on the problem.
AI agents have made engineering throughput cheap, so senior judgment is now the scarce asset: what to build, what to gate, what to trust to production. We're looking for an experienced engineer to join our small crew and play a ~70/30 build-to-lead role:
- Raise the team’s bar without bureaucracy
- Ship production code
- Be the human PR review
- Own the quality delivery system as a product
- Ship spec-first
- Orchestrate AI at staff level
Stack: TypeScript, React, Python, PostgreSQL, ECS/Lambda, Terraform.
We work on fascinating projects with physical implications to the world but more importantly we just really don't work with a*holes, I wake up happy to see my colleagues, the crew loves to laugh and we walk the walk.
Full role details: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1R7rPplGTziBmvnKSocRRQ5Pg4cPhUUreny1DPx7y0Zs/edit?usp=sharing
Email [email protected] with a PR, design doc or postmortem you're proud of, and why this role. Always happy to jump on short calls for a mutual sus-out. It's a call for adventure, after all.
