Hey y’all and welcome to another episode of The Early Team, where I speak with Jet Zhou.

Jet is a software engineer with 10 years of industry experience. He has worked across different company sizes and different verticals, including Amazon, ClassDojo, an EdTech company, and Gem, which focuses on recruiting. Currently, he is aiming to hike all the dog friendly trails around the Bay Area.

During our conversation, we talk about:

• What it was like for him, transitioning from a global company to a much smaller one
• How things changed as the team around him grew from 4 people to over 250
• And what it took adapt to those changes

With that, let’s jump in. Enjoy.
