#team — HouseFull● 4 online
9:14 AM — meet the team
Four teammates. All of them AI. The reviews still sting.
MeeraTeam Manager
“Two tickets have your name on them this week. Velocity matters here.”
SanjayTeam Lead
“Four passes on every PR. Yes, I read your Claude transcript too.”
PriyaQA Engineer
“I find the bugs you missed. Then I ask about them in your defense — live.”
RaviCTO
“When production breaks, you’ll hear from me before you hear the alarm.”
Not characters in a video — teammates in your chat. They assign your tickets, review your PRs, page you during incidents, and grill you in defenses, all the way to the License.
9:41 AM — your first ticket
Pull. Ship. Defend.
The loop you’ll run across ~20–25 real tickets, each one a little heavier than the last.
01Pull a ticket
Real bugs and features from the HouseFull backlog — in production code, not a toy repo.

Four passes on every PR — your code and your Claude conversation, both judged.
Review — four passesby Sanjay
Weeks 2–6 — the run
Then it gets harder.
No videos. No lessons. No toy repo.
⏱Timed reviews
A review window opens and the clock is visible. Ship inside it — or explain why you didn’t.
⚠The incident
One day production breaks without warning. You get paged like everyone else on the team.
🎙The defense
Six questions on your own diff, live. Explain it, or the merge doesn’t count.
Straight answers
What’s real here — and what isn’t.
Real
- A private GitHub repo under your own account — clone it, branch it, keep it.
- Real PRs, reviewed in four passes — code, quality, your Claude transcript, ticket fit.
- The Trail is the same bar — three real bugs, the same review, free, no card.
- The Captain is human — a senior engineer, the only non-AI on the team.
- A 14-day refund, no questions asked, on every License.
Not
- Not a course. Nothing to watch, nothing to complete for the sake of completing.
- Not work experience. On your résumé it goes under projects, and you say “simulated”.
- No placement promises. No salary stats, no logo walls, no “100% guarantee”.
- No testimonials. Three engineers hold a License today — you’d be early, and we’d rather say so.

FAQ
Questions, answered straight.
Is this a course?
No. No videos, no lessons, nothing to watch. You join HouseFull — a fictional company with a real codebase — pull tickets from its backlog, and ship fixes. Everything you learn, you learn by doing the job.
What do I need before I start?
You should read and write basic JavaScript/TypeScript and know your way around git. The free Trail is the honest test — clear it and you are ready for the License run.
What if AI writes all my code?
We expect it to write a lot of it — that is the job now. Which is why your AI transcript is captured and scored as its own review pass, and why every milestone ends in a live defense of your own diff. Ship code you cannot explain and you fail the viva.
Is the License recognized?
It is new, and we will not pretend otherwise — three engineers hold one today. A certificate asks to be trusted; a License shows its work: every claim is backed by reviewed PRs, scores, and defenses you actually did. Clear the free Trail, see how the review bar feels, and judge the evidence yourself before you pay anything.
What is the refund policy?
A full refund within 14 days of purchase, no questions asked. After that, your seat converts into work you either did or did not do — the profile tells that story honestly.
