I previously cofounded Firebase (YC S11) and sold it to Google, and most of our team is ex-Google / ex-Firebase.
My new startup Shortwave is building a new email client designed for stress-free productivity. We're borrowing concepts and features from modern modern messaging apps to help people write and respond to emails faster. Our mission is to ensure the future of online communications is decentralized -- and email is the largest truly decentralized communications network in the world. We're well-funded and backed by Union Square Ventures and Lightspeed Venture Partners. We just launched in February, and The Verge called Shortwave "The Google Inbox successor I've been waiting for": https://www.theverge.com/22990303/shortwave-email-google-gma...
We're looking for smart, ambitious engineers who want to make an impact on how the world communicates. We work hard, but we have fun too, with a hybrid remote + offsite environment. Multiple roles open: https://angel.co/company/shortwave-com
