1 engineer, many jobs and a hiring reckoning for tech
Hindustan Times Lucknow
|July 04, 2025
Over this week, both Reddit and X were on fire over an Indian engineer named Soham Parekh.
On Wednesday Suhail Doshi, a San Francisco-based founder associated with the Y Combinator accelerator startup community, posted a tweet about the engineer, with a word of caution. “He works at 3-4 startups at the same time and has been preying on YC companies. Beware,” Suhail Doshi posted, adding a screenshot of the person’s resume. Within a few hours, his X blew up with other startup founders posting that they had hired or fired Soham Parekh. At least five founders accused the engineer of moonlighting - or job stacking, a practice of working multiple full-time remote jobs concurrently.
