Startup life at Hypernet, mixed bag
This place is a learning ground, especially if you're new to the blockchain space. You'll get hands-on experience as a Software Engineer, but don't expect a clear career path to be laid out for you.
I learned a ton about new tech stacks and cutting-edge blockchain development. As a Software Engineer, I got to contribute to core features quickly, which was great for skill development. The informal environment encourages you to take initiative.
Career progression isn't well-defined at this big tech startup. There's no clear path for promotions or senior technical roles, so you kind of have to figure it out yourself. It felt like growth was often more about self-advocacy than a structured system, especially in the San Francisco office.
Formalize career progression paths, especially for senior technical roles. Implement a structured mentorship program.
