Contrario (YC W25)

This guy holds a world record, built a startup, and made us revenue before he even joined... and he's just 21. Here's how I found him. [THREAD]

I'm 21, CTO of a YC-backed company, and we're fixing how startups hire. But none of this started with a startup idea. This is my timeline. [THREAD]
