I brought on Surya, the technical founder of Argonaut. In his experience, he's seen that user-centered developers are not just a bonus, but a necessity to create a successful product, and we dove deep into this part of the conversation to show you exactly why that is. You'll hear about how high ownership within a team can lead to a profound understanding of the domain, resulting in a ripple effect of expansion and growth.With his wealth of experience, Surya shared his most potent advice for new developers and provided a sneak peek into his hiring process. And for those job seekers, we discussed the importance of relevance and how contributing to open source could give you an edge. He shared a real-life success story of a hire made thanks to open-source contributions, highlighting the immense value of curiosity and problem-solving.This episode is perfect for brand-new developers wanting to know what can make them stand out when trying to land their first job, especially at a startup.Surya Oruganti (guest):Twitter - https://twitter.com/suryaorugantiLinkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/suryaorugantiWebsite - https://www.argonaut.dev--------------------------------------------------- 👾 Join Discord - https://discord.gg/TpQe2k8Ab3💻 Learn Frontend (20% off): https://scrimba.com/the-frontend-developer-career-path-c0j?via=donthedeveloper⚙️ Learn Backend (25% off): https://boot.dev/?promo=DONTHEDEVELOPER🐱 Learn NestJS (free) - https://scrimba.com/nestjs-c0n7djgjma?via=donthedeveloper🧠 Advanced Coding (40% off) - https://app.codecrafters.io/join?via=donthedeveloper👥 1 on 1 Mentorship - https://cal.com/donthedeveloper/mentorship🐦 Follow on X - https://x.com/thedonofcodeDisclaimer: Some product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something I'll receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.
