Episode notes
Prototype Born From Co-op Hiring Pain
- Aaron built the first JobHive prototype to solve his co-op resume and interview overload problem.
- He hacked a Django backend and simple frontend to record audio, transcribe it, and feed it to an LLM to simulate interviews.
Ship A Minimal Flow First
- Build the simplest thing that proves the concept while keeping the bigger picture in mind.
- Start small, validate the flow, then iterate toward the full vision.
Use Libraries And Cloud Primitives
- Leverage existing libraries and cloud services instead of rebuilding everything yourself.
- Aaron used LangChain and AWS Transcribe/Bedrock/Talli to speed development and reduce overhead.
