Do YC funded companies hire non-technical people at all?

YC companies definitely hire non-engineers. But often the first few hires will be engineers; at Zencoder, we were 7 engineers and 1 business/office manager before we hired for sales/marketing.

We're currently looking for a marketing manager. http://zencoder.com/jobs/

Thanks for the info! I understand that the number of engineer posts will be large in comparison to Analysts/Sales/Marketing/HR. Good to know though.

Dropbox doesn't post much to the YC listing, but we are hiring for basically everything: http://www.dropbox.com/jobs

You can email me directly if you have any questions too: ivan@dropbox.com

Thanks for that Ivan! I sure will look into the listing and email you if I have questions.

>I don't remember seeing any job for non-engineers.

There are certainly fewer non-technical positions posted, but there are some. For example, ZeroCater has posted customer support and sales openings.

A few are looking for sales people.
