Preserving company culture during scaling is essential, and we focus on hiring the right people to maintain our design and trust culture.

I believe that hiring senior managers with experience is important, but you also need to balance that with nurturing young talent within the company.

Diversity in hiring should be prioritized from the start to prevent a homogeneous culture that can hinder growth and innovation. As the company grows, early employees may want to take on roles like VP of Engineering, but you need to proactively discuss their career paths to retain them and maintain company culture.

When hiring, we look for ambitious individuals who are excited about our vision, even if they aren't lifelong users of our product. This allows us to bring in fresh perspectives that can help us improve and grow.

I believe the startup industry belongs to young people, and it's essential to have team members in their 20s who are good at identifying opportunities.

In later-stage startups, I prioritize authenticity in candidates during interviews, as it’s important to work with genuine people.

We prioritize hiring super talented individuals who fit our culture and are incredibly hardworking, regardless of their experience.

It's essential to be disciplined about hiring; I prioritize finding candidates who align with our values, even if it means waiting longer to fill a position.

Maintaining the right culture in our business is crucial as we transition from a startup to a larger company, ensuring we continue to innovate and thrive.
