The Story

Xiang Li

I've been building startups since college. Most notably on the founding team of Vitable Health (YC S20), where we took the company from pre-seed to Series A, past $10M ARR, and hundreds of thousands of patients.

In an early stage startup, 'engineering' turns into 'whatever it takes'. I got my first real taste of how broken technical hiring is from the inside, sifting through noisy inbound, rejecting great people because the process couldn't handle nuance, and watching recruiters spam candidates who'd never thrive in our environment.

I believe repetitive intellectual work should be automated. When Edmund reached out with an eerily on-point message written by an agent, it stopped feeling like a pitch and started feeling inevitable. Superposition is my bet that we can delete bullshit jobs in hiring and maximize meaningful work for more people.
