"Preferred Qualification: TigerBeetle - if you already know what it is, we want to talk" Senior Backend Engineer opening @UpholdInc gm.careers/jobs/1f6a55cf-ef6…

Those who claim sales is science haven't felt the power of its art.

What an honor to be able to deliver a guest lecture at @Stanford Launchpad on how we think about building trust through sales @TigerBeetleDB. As a student at Stanford, sales wasn't on my radar. It was and still is an underrepresented craft so it's special to be able to share what I think is one of the most important skills our future leaders should learn. Thank you to my friend Thaisan for inviting me back for year 2 of this lecture and thank you to all the student entrepreneurs who showed up engaged and excited to learn an authentic brand of sales rooted in deep trust. #trust #tigersales #bringsalestostanford

Something we value at TigerBeetle is that we are craftspeople. It’s who we are and what we do, but more, it’s the quality (and trust) we sell: “Each line of TigerBeetle code is handcrafted, and then independently reviewed (and understood) by another engineer.”

"TigerBeetle provided the flexibility and foundation that allowed us to build specifically around our operational and scalability requirements. With TigerBeetle, OKTO PAYMENTS can continue to scale without revisiting its foundation." – Kalebi Serafim, CTO, OKTO PAYMENTS

Every coder knows an “appeal to authority” is a logical fallacy… …and yet we all commit an “appeal to popularity” at some point. For example: - “use boring technology” - “we passed 1K stars” - “BigCorp also uses COBOL!” All logical fallacies. Rather, value the intrinsics.

In the long run, the world rewards quality. In the short run, keep that in mind. Do the harder thing today to make tomorrow easier.

I wrote these words 7 months ago. I am more grateful today for Andrew's leadership of the ZSF, that the foundations of TigerBeetle, our compiler, should not be vibed out beneath us. Standing up to “trillion dollar” big corp… Zig is hard core quality. tigerbeetle.com/blog/2025-10…

Can't wait for this!!!

Where others use AI to “create”, at TigerBeetle we’re more excited about how to use the machines to “destroy”. Some see AI as a way to “type faster” or “increase productivity”, but at TigerBeetle I tell the team we’re already “too productive” (through TigerStyle), we want calm focused work not burnout… and we know that all the huge gains come from understanding anyway. So “destruction” aka testing, i.e. as a foil or sparring training partner, is where we see it’s at with AI. Not to create. That stays with the humans so we don’t atrophy our understanding, which is more valuable than “LOC”. But to increase quality through defense in depth in testing. But even there, the gains with AI are marginal, a few percent, compared to the 90% power of our DST, which again, came from systems thinking. So I encourage our team to “keep playing the violin yourself”, to keep practicing, keep training, keep investing in understanding.
