This is the best explanation for the type of people I love to hire and work with. It’s hard to define what ownership or agency is and I believe this does a great job. It’s the same standard I hold myself to:
During my time @Opendoor, @chintanparikh94 was easily one of my favorite engineers to collaborate with. Smart, opinionated, deeply cares about the customers.
When he said he’s leaving Secureframe to start a newCo with @chrissesi, I immediately asked where do I wire - even before they joined YC.
It was a short but really fun journey to work with them - and @Opendoor is getting (again) a truly phenomenal team!
Excited to share that Audrion (YC F25) has been acquired by Opendoor.
We’re continuing the mission to make homeownership simpler and more accessible with @nejatian and the team.
Grateful to our early supporters at A*, Mercury Fund, FPV, and many others who believed in us from the beginning.
And to @ycombinator, especially our partners, Tom Bloomfield and Grey Baker, thank you for shaping how we build and think. It is clear YC is the best place for founders to build. If anyone is on the fence, I highly recommend you take the leap and apply.
@nejatian@chintanparikh94@vineets1600@apostolos_delis It’s been almost a decade since I first reached out to Kaz. It was impossible to pass up the opportunity to work alongside him and the rest of the Opendoor team.
We’re excited to continue the mission!
