I'm a former tech lead at Google and worked at two startups. I specialized in backend, infrastructure, and engineering productivity. I now coach eng ICs to grow in their roles.
I've interviewed over a few hundred candidates, from junior engineers to senior staff engineers. While most interviews were technical (algorithms, system design, SRE-related), I also conducted culture-fit interviews.
My goal is to give you honest feedback and highlight areas to improve.
As a senior staff, and later a principal software engineer at Thumbtack, I helped many team members learn about scaling their services, setting up telemetry, and designing code that it's sustainable. At Google, I coached junior team members and helped them get promoted.
I can share what worked well...
I have about 15 years of experience in designing and building scalable systems - from backend to infrastructure (DevOps and SRE). I led many big projects at Thumbtack and Google, and most of them required cross-team efforts and extensive communication with stakeholders. I can also share my debugging skills,...
Yes you can use credits with any coach.
Yes, unused credits can be refunded within 30 days of getting purchased. After 30 days the credits cannot be refunded anymore, but you can still use them at any point in the future.
If you do get a refund it will be corrected for the discount you initially got. As an example, imagine you have purchased 10 credits, and paid 10 x $48 = $480. If you end up only using 5 credits, we will refund you the difference between what you have paid ($480), and what you would have paid had you purchased 5 credits (5 x $50 = $250). So in this specific example we would refund: $480 - $250 = $230.
One hour might not seem like a lot. But coaches are used to making the most of the time. They’ll come ready to the session so you can cover the topics that are important to you and walk away with concrete next steps.
Coaches’ bios might look intimidating because some of them have worked at big companies and have senior titles. But they’re all genuinely interested in helping you out. They’re here for you, will show empathy, and do their best to help you achieve your goals.
If you aren’t satisfied with one of your coaching sessions for any reason, get in touch with us within 24h of the end of your session and you’ll be eligible for a refund. We refund up to 1 coaching session per user.
Unfortunately, there’s no set answer to that question as every situation is different. We recommend doing one or two sessions with a coach to get started. They’ll be able to give you an assessment of how many sessions you’ll need overall.
Credits cost $50 to $40 per credit. The more you buy, the cheaper they get.
Coaches cost 2, 3, 4 or 5 credits per 1h coaching session.
