by linkedin.com/in/padengayle with 23k Followers
I left Google, spent a year figuring out the role everyone's racing to hire for, interviewed at 30+ AI companies, and now I document the real work from inside the building. No theory, no hype, just what actually ships.
What you get:
🎯 Direct recruiter intros via Paraform. No resume screen. I only send people I've vetted. $260K+ avg hire (Cursor, Palantir, Decagon, Cognition)
🏗️ 7 technical modules: RAG, MCP, agents, evals
💻 9 Python files + 3 GitHub repos, ready to use
📓 Weekly journal from my real FDE work
📞 Weekly Q&A calls + async peer network
For SWEs, TPMs, and devs pivoting into Applied AI. Not for total beginners looking for hand-holding.
Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic are all hiring FDEs right now. Fastest growing role in tech.
Get in now, price increases @ 50 members.

NGL, I almost didn't join after wasting money on things I never finished. What changed my mind: Paden actually does this job. Weekly posts on what he worked on, what broke, what he learned. Not theory. I stole the discovery template from the Vault, used it in my final round, and the interviewer asked where I learned to scope like that. Got the interview, negotiated a 20k+ bump (ty paden). Community's quieter than expected, think ppl are shy lol but every post gets real attention. Love it here!
