Project mention: Ask HN: How do you find early stage startups to join | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-08-22
Adding to this, the YC jobs portal is also on: https://www.workatastartup.com/
There are also plenty of early stage startup job offers on the Ask HN: Who is hiring threads (here’s the latest one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44757794)
The above can be hard to navigate, but there are some recommended tools in there that scrape the listings and make them searchable
Lastly, you can also try this CLI tool that uses AI to match your resume and preferences to job listings scraped from HN and a couple of other sources: https://github.com/nicobrenner/commandjobs
Oh, and you can also attend startup meetups, a lot of times you can meet the founders in person and they might be looking to hire (that’s how I first got into an early YC company)
