I put together a small list of questions that you can ask your potential manager while interviewing. It's free. Hope people find it helpful and I appreciate any feedback/reviews!
Smartsheet is a work collaboration platform. Think of it as Excel built for the web in mind from the get go but you can do much more. Teams start simple with task lists and project plans and start expanding with our reporting/dashboard/automation capabilities. We have interesting distributed systems problems and a supportive culture where everyone can learn.
Teams own everything from front end down to infrastructure. We are on AWS.
There are a variety of tech stacks including Node JS/Java/Go running on K8s or straight ec2. Come make an impact.

Smartsheet | Full time Senior Software Engineer | Bellevue WA | smartsheet.com
My team is looking for a full stack engineer with a lean toward front end skills. Our primary stack is Java for backend, React with Typescript on the front end with AWS as our infra. We operate in a dev ops model and have built a range of event and data micro-services that consume data from various other services. We have some exciting new greenfield projects coming up this year where will let users of our platform learn more about their usage of Smartsheet and their data.
I think moocs are usefull to jump start you but after that you need to do more. I studied CS and did find the deeplearning.ai course helpful in getting started. Without it much of the ML content was not easy to grokk. But now that I"ve gone through that I get the gist of what papers are talking about. After you do a MOOC though you have to continue with doing real work as in exercises, Kaggle competitions and just playing with things.
For a ML intro Coursera's machine learning course https://www.coursera.org/learn/machine-learning is great. I have not been through the entire course but for someone who has no background in it, its a good intro as the video themselves are solid.
I used Screenhero a lot when I worked remotely. It's a great tool. Shared screens from the East coastto West coast (US) with hardly ever experiencing problems. Great service.
(Screenhero co-founder here) I'm very glad to hear this! Your screen sharing (and voice and video communication) experience is going to get even better in the coming months. Stay tuned :)
In my experience companies won't share what the percentage is of the stock you are getting. They just say you are getting X number of shares and won't tell you anything else. How do you verify what they are saying is correct?
Telling you total outstanding number of shares is required before you can have any idea what level of equity you are receiving. If they can't tell you that, then you have one problem. If they won't tell you, then you have another. Either way, I would be concerned.
