> Her accomplishments are impressive and well deserved

what exactly are those even? that she went to MIT? from her linkedin she's at some blockchain startup (for only 4 months) doing "compiler work" - i put it in quotes because these jobs actually happen to be a dime-a-dozen and the only thing you have to do to get them is pass standard filters (LC, pedigree, etc.).



The article says

> I was a compiler engineer at a startup in New York City. In that role, I worked on extending a preexisting open-source programming language.

> I am now a compiler engineer at a large, post-IPO tech company in the San Francisco Bay Area. I work on making programming languages run faster.

The 4 month startup is the former.
