Tokenmaxxing has started to get very expensive for us. No more - thank you @coworkerapp

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
