Biobase | Senior Technical Product Engineer, Technical Product Engineer (Early Career) | REMOTE (US, Canada) | Full-time | $150–230k / $90–170k + equity

Biobase has grand ambitions. We broker biospecimens, whole slide images, and the clinical metadata attached to them, on a supply-chain backbone that we're steadily automating. We’re building healthcare-data-focused agents on top of the datasets that we’re assembling, too.

We'd rather build the thing that removes the work than throw people at it. Two roles, one team, both reporting to the CPO:

Senior Technical Product Engineer ($150–230k + meaningful equity). The product team's technical interface. Architecture decisions and code review on the platform (Python/FastAPI, TypeScript/React, Postgres, Azure); the data pipeline and informatics that take specimen, slide, and clinical data in from suppliers and labs; and product ownership of the internal platform that builds our agents (permissions, evals, cost control, guardrails for sensitive data). You've been the reviewer of record somewhere, you've operated what you shipped, and you think in business problems before tickets.

Technical Product Engineer, early career ($90–170k + equity). Same territory at an earlier stage: the platform, the data pipeline and informatics, and the agents we run against our own operations — with a senior product engineer and our lead engineer reviewing your work and pairing when it helps. Open on background – self-taught, bootcamp, degree, research lab, a career you're leaving – selective on the bar. You've built something and someone else used it.

We build with Claude Code every day and expect you to become both fluent with it and skeptical of it. No ticket queue, no spec handed to you. Comp is salary + equity combos you choose between.

To apply: email [email protected] with something you built that eliminated manual work and what happened after it shipped. Links over resumes, no cover letter.

Windows

Each story opens in a window holding its article above its discussion; drag the bar between them to share the room differently. A window can be moved by its title bar, resized from any edge, snapped to a half or a corner by dragging it there, maximised, or minimised to the bar at the foot of the page. Open several stories to compare them, and switch between them from that bar. A window's Next story link reads on down the list in the same window.

A link in a comment or an article to another Hacker News or Lobsters thread opens that thread in a window too. A link to a single HN comment opens the comment above its replies.

While a story's window is in front, the Story and Discussion menus in the menu bar hold its commands: pinning, Next story, sorting, collapsing every thread, jumping to the first new comment. Each window also remembers where you were in its article and discussion, so a reload, or Back to a story that Next took you past, finds your place again. Closing a window forgets it.

The whole arrangement lives in the address, so a bookmark or a shared link brings it back, and Back undoes the last change. Moving between Hacker News, Lobsters, their lists, Pinned and Find changes only the list, and leaves the windows open.

The list

The pin at the start of a row keeps the story in Pinned, and the cross at its end hides it. Pinned can be narrowed by words in the title, site or author, by source, and to the stories you haven't opened yet, and ordered by when you pinned them, by points or by comments; the filters are part of the address, so a filtered view can be bookmarked. Scroll past the end of the list to load more. Domain filters, in the View menu, hide every story from a site.

Applets

The Applets menu in the menu bar holds three tools, each a window of its own. Replies to me takes your Hacker News user name and lists the replies to your last thirty comments and stories, checking again every three minutes while it is open, and marking what is new since you last marked them read. Look up a user opens a profile on Hacker News or Lobsters, with their submissions and recent comments, as a commenter's name in any discussion does; the bar at the top of a profile looks up someone else in the same window, and Back returns to the one before. Who is hiring? filters the posts of HN's monthly hiring threads by the words you type.

They read only what the sites publish to everyone, so none of them asks for a login, and your user name stays in this browser.

Find

Find takes any link and lists every time it was submitted to Hacker News and Lobsters, so you can read each discussion of it.

About

YAVCHN never sees your Hacker News or Lobsters login. The discussion is fetched from each site's public API; to vote or reply, follow the link above the discussion, or the arrow beside a comment, to the source's own site. Pins, hidden stories, filters and layout are kept in this browser only.
