FY20-Q3 Memory Team OKR: Meet Q3 Hiring Plan Goals => 100%
Objective: Meet or exceed hiring goals for Q3
Key Results:
- Hire 1 new Senior Engineer for the Memory Team
- Stretch goal is to hire 2 new Senior Engineers to the Memory Team
History:
It has been very difficult to find qualified candidates for the Memory Team. We have the unique combination of needing Ruby or Ruby on Rails experience, combined with performance tuning or memory allocation experience. We have had a very high rejection rate throughout the interview process (I've asked for metrics). Additionally, at the time of this writing the Memory Team is near the bottom of the list of priorities in hiring order: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/people-ops/hiring-processes/blob/master/Engineering/Backend/README.md
