Show HN: Reverse Engineer This Site

3 points by jdmcd 2y ago

Hey Hacker News! ReverseEngineerThisSite is a challenge that we put together as a recruiting tool for an open Founding Engineer[1] position, but figured that this crowd may also enjoy hacking around on it (you don't need to be looking for a job). We’ve found it to be a good way to test for very specific competencies we care about while also at least somewhat protecting against AI doing *all* of the work. Would love any feedback or thoughts if you get a chance to play around with it - and if you know anyone looking for their next role in NYC, please do send it their way [1]: https://rubiehq.notion.site/Rubie-Founding-Engineer-c4b9b82ee9ef40e3b7ce6165c8dcc459?pvs=4 https://rubiehq.notion.site/Rubie-Founding-Engineer-c4b9b82e...

Disappointed by the sign up requirement but I understand why. Are the other people on the leaderboard real? I got the top spot because it wasn't so hard.

  re: signup, yeah that feedback is valid, it might be worth implementing a signup that doesn't require an email and could be just username/password based. Will look into this. And yes everyone else on the leaderboard is real! :) you crushed it!
