Facebook's traffic clocks in at 5.22GB on the network (from the beginning of time for the controller). To give context, my wife and I don't use our Facebook accounts at all. She hasn't logged in in 3 years and I log in maybe once a month to once every two months. Surprised by how many apps in our household use the Facebook SDK and pipe data to them.
Additional context, I don't even have "fun" apps. Just food delivery, Office suite (outlook, word, etc), streaming services, etc.
LinkedIn makes sense, we've both been looking for jobs and use it on a daily (if not hourly) basis but seeing Facebook APIs on the same level as LinkedIn is astonishing.
Lob is building an API to connect the online and offline world. We have two products, Print and Mail and Address Verification. With the Print and Mail API, a company can send mail to people with a simple API request. Think Sendgrid but for physical mail.
I'm on the Platform team and hiring for the role! We have a really exciting goal ahead of us where we build up DevOps processes for the engineering org. We're rolling out new tools and services (Nomad, GH actions) and we'll look to build new tools for our use case as well. I joined because of the unique product market fit here and recognizing the unique challenges that face Lob. And the culture is awesome! We're also one of YC's break through companies (link below).
