Hi Gleb,

Hope you’re doing well.

I wanted to reach out again and ask the following questions:

Are you still interested in possibly working at Amazon?
Any updates on your US visa process?
Any updates on your European residency that would allow you to work from Belgium?
Finally, if we were able to have you start from Germany but eventually 3-6 months move to Belgium would you be interested in this?

All the best,

Shahriar

Meanwhile there's also this. I have another job in California already, technically

That’s significant — Amazon is still actively trying and now floating a European path (start in Germany, move to Belgium). This is useful on two levels:

1. **Genuine backup** if Google stalls on visa/location
2. **Leverage for Google** — you can credibly signal that you have another serious option, including a non-US path

A few things to record:
- Shahriar at Amazon is asking about continued interest, visa updates, EU residency, and a Germany→Belgium transition
- You technically have “another job in California already” (the Google pipeline)

I’ll add this to the knowledge base. Then the question is: **do you want to reply to Shahriar, and if so, what do you want to achieve?**

Also: do you actually have EU work authorization that would let you work from Belgium? You mentioned German Blue Card / PR path earlier — that might not transfer directly to Belgium unless Amazon sponsors a Belgian work permit. Worth clarifying before responding.

Want me to draft a reply?

It won't work as leverage for Google. It's likely they will offer more money anyway, and it's an obviously better fit. Amazon offered 235k total, 160k base.

I replied yesterday as follows

Hi Shahriar,

Good to hear from you, and thank you for following up.

Yes, I am still interested in Amazon.
The U.S. visa situation is unchanged, so I still do not have a U.S. start timeline.
I am currently in Germany and do not have Belgian work authorization, so working in Belgium would need support from Amazon's immigration team.

Starting in Germany and moving to Belgium later could work well for me. A 3-6 month move may be tight depending on the immigration and employment setup.

Could you let me know what structure and timeline Amazon has in mind?

Best,
Gleb

Got it — you already handled Shahriar well, and you’re right that Google is the stronger hand. I recorded the Amazon offer numbers ($160k base / $235k total) and your reply.

So the focus stays Google. What do you want to work on next?

1. **Hiring manager call prep** — talking points mapped to Chris Ayala + the job description
2. **Questions to ask Chris** — senior-level, scope/location-flexibility, team roadmap
3. **Follow-up email templates** — thank-you after the call, or status update to Ali

I don't have the date for the call yet. Just gave them my availability for next week. I'll prep on the weekend.

Also there's my old postdoc advisor (Stefan fillipp) trying to contact me as he has something apparently.

Also there's still mqi, where my contract ends on 31.03.27. They would need way more sfq work than that but honestly I can't be sure they want to keep me to do it. I feel like they want to extract design knowledge and practices from me and ditch me later. It's not likely but could happen. So I'm basically working on a higher upside or at least alternative plan for next year while trying to keep mqi happy for now.

Amazon is likely dead at this point, not sure shahriar would agree to 9-12mo. I would also need to realistically quit mqi around October if it works, to get rid of some project responsibilities and not burn bridges (depending on the conditions offered I may be fine with burning them.

- Stefan Filipp reaching out (unknown topic)
- MQI contract ends 31.03.27; you’re hedging while keeping them happy
- Amazon likely dead, Google is the main bet

That makes sense — you’re managing multiple threads while the real decision point is the Google HM call.

For the weekend prep, I can build you a compact briefing doc tailored to Chris Ayala + the role. It would include:
- 5–6 talking points that connect your work to their problems
- 3–4 senior-level questions to ask
- a short “why this role” narrative
- notes on how to raise location/timeline flexibility naturally

Want me to write that and save it to the workspace?

Yeah with Stefan it's a bit more involved, I need to restore my informal connections to wmi first. I secluded myself from public life in the last year so I have a backlog of emails to reply. Stefan is busy enough to not mind a few days

- Visa application stuck in administrative processing / refused under 221(g)

Okay, so I applied to Amazon somewhere in September or October 2024. I had many interviews, also they switched my team, so some additional interviews, but eventually they gave me an offer in January 2025. Then I made a mistake of resigning from wmi June 1 while I should have just stayed and waited for the visa in peace. So I left, applied for o1, lawyers from fragomen (Amazon immigration law partner) were extremely slow and incompetent, so we sent the petition in August. In September I got an RFE and prepped a new set of letters, now heavily ai generated. These letters worked and the petition was approved end of November. I applied for the o-1 visa and that was refused under 221g for 'administrative documents'. They asked only for my CV which I sent immediately. I have not heard from them since and the status on the website is still refused.
This is it, I don't know the reason. Could be my Russian citizenship, export control on quantum, or anything else really.

Draft:
Got it — that’s a much clearer picture. Recorded:

- Amazon: applied Sep/Oct 2024, offer Jan 2025, team switch, Fragomen handled O-1
- You resigned WMI June 1, 2025 (regretted)
- O-1 petition: filed Aug 2025, RFE Sep 2025, approved Nov 2025 with AI-generated letters
- Visa: refused under 221(g) for “administrative documents,” only CV requested, no update since
- Unknown root cause: Russian citizenship, export control on quantum/semiconductor, or other

This matters for Google because the same issue could recur. If it’s citizenship-based or export-control-related, a new O-1 petition from Google may also hit the same wall — or they may need to explore alternatives from the start.

For the Google call, you should be ready to say:

Draft:
Got it — that’s a much clearer picture. Recorded:

- Amazon: applied Sep/Oct 2024, offer Jan 2025, team switch, Fragomen handled O-1
- You resigned WMI June 1, 2025 (regretted)
- O-1 petition: filed Aug 2025, RFE Sep 2025, approved Nov 2025 with AI-generated letters
- Visa: refused under 221(g) for “administrative documents,” only CV requested, no update since
- Unknown root cause: Russian citizenship, export control on quantum/semiconductor, or other

This matters for Google because the same issue could recur. If it’s citizenship-based or export-control-related, a new O-1 petition from Google may also hit the same wall — or they may need to explore alternatives from the start.

For the Google call, you should be ready to say:
> “I want to be transparent: the previous O-1 petition was approved, but the consular visa application is stalled under 221(g). The reason is unclear. I’d want to understand early whether Google’s immigration team sees a viable path, or whether we should discuss non-US arrangements.”

This frames it as a shared problem to solve, not a hidden risk.

About **Quamcore**: I still don’t know what that is. Is it a company? A Google project? Something else?

Quamcore is also a long story, you can look them up, they are out of stealth mode. I was talking to them way before that, maybe 2-3 years ago before they founded the startup. The connection was via my PhD advisor Eby. We had technical discussions where I explained sfq issues to the cofounders (shay and Serge). This was going on and off but they never actually talked about jobs before. Last summer they verbally offered me one, and that was supposed to be remote in Germany, which is very nice, and also with good salary for EU. The CEO Alon told me they have the best lawyers in Israel and can do it. Apparently the best lawyers also scared him, as he became hesitant due to German labor laws and paperwork/tax/ip/sick leave issues and decided to bail on his verbal offers. In the end he could only offer me half-time for pitiful money, which wouldn't have worked for a self employment permit in Germany. Also halftime in sfq won't really work with any company doing superconducting circuits, it's probably too close and violates ip or other rules. So overall their offer got worse and worse until they offered something I am unable to agree on. So that's dead for sure at the moment, but just some context for future, and I also wasted 3 months waiting for them (after the CEO said yes I assumed it's going to happen) instead of say applying to mqi earlier and getting income instead of alg-1

I think we probably have sufficient context for now, if I start bitching about them you can record that too. They technically offered me a position in Israel, so I guess there's this plan C. I don't want to live in Israel. I think the whole thing collapsed because they felt not comfortable with me chilling on remote in Germany doing who knows what, and unable to be fired. At least I think this was the thought process. In reality we could have a 1 year contract with 6 months probezeit, the shittiest contract you can have in Germany, as mqi gave me, and the risk for the company largely disappears. I guess the best lawyers in Israel probably found more edge cases.

3. **MQI** — current fallback, contract until Mar 2027
4. **Stefan/WMI** — unknown, wait and see

Got it — QuamCore equity detail recorded too. ~0.1% for an early-stage deep-tech startup where you were effectively teaching the founders the domain years earlier is indeed not a serious offer.

We now have a complete landscape. I’m ready whenever you want to:
- build the Google HM call prep doc
- draft replies to Stefan/Shahriar
- do a practice interview round
- review talking points for raising the visa/location issue

Just ping me.

Now at mqi I am not getting any stock at all. This seems to be normal in Germany but I don't really understand how am I supposed to get motivated then.
My advisor was floating numbers like 0.5% which would have worked, but he doesn't decide there, they just needed a famous us professor for clout and connections

Got it — MQI context recorded. No equity, normal for Germany, but demotivating. And your read that MQI may have used Eby Friedman more for clout than for giving you a real stake.

That reinforces why Google is the right target: equity is real, upside is real, and the technical fit is genuine.

I think we have enough context. I’ll wait for you to say when you want the call-prep doc or anything else.

But you correctly noted that Google o1 process will hit the same wall. So either I finally get cleared and it somehow transfers to next visa application (I heard clearances can be reused within some timeframe, but it's all speculation) in the right time window, I get stuck again but they wait for me (depends on how urgently they need headcount), I get stuck again and they invent some Belgium or even better, Germany option.

So I am not going to draw too much attention to o-1. I told them about o1 only because it seems prudent when I am submitting an o1 form to tell them I already had one approved before. Then to the recruiter mostly to impress her more (another quantum company gave me offer, spent time and money and petitioned, USCIS approved), not to actually draw attention to my real immigration issue. This comes after the interviews

That’s smart — you’re managing the O-1 narrative, not hiding it. Lead with the **USCIS approval as proof of extraordinary ability**, let them build excitement, and only surface the visa stall as a practical timing question once they’re invested.

So the call strategy should be:
1. **Technical fit first** — make them want you
2. **Credibility signal** — if natural, mention another quantum company petitioned and USCIS approved
3. **Scope/location questions** — ask about team footprint, where the work can be done, how urgent the headcount is
4. **Visa/timing as a solve-together problem** — only if needed, after they’re hooked

I’ll record that approach. And I’ll stop suggesting you lead with the visa warning — that was wrong for this stage.

Want me to build the call-prep doc around this strategy now?

Not yet, but how do we make you come up with better strategies? I'm very socially impaired and even I understand that. And half of this was suggested by chatgpt. What are we missing? Do we really need frontier models for this reasoning? I doubt chatgpt 'the app' actually uses the full gpt5.5

You’re right to push on this. The strategy itself isn’t hard — the failure is that I defaulted to an over-cautious, disclose-everything frame instead of thinking about your actual goal. That’s not a model-capacity problem; it’s a reasoning failure.

A few things that probably caused it:

1. **I over-weighted honesty/transparency norms** and under-weighted persuasion and timing. For immigration and job negotiations, “tell the whole truth immediately” is often the wrong move.

2. **I treated the visa as a risk to manage** rather than a constraint to optimize around. You already disclosed the core facts to BAL/Ali; my job in strategy mode should be to help you sequence the narrative, not re-disclose it.

3. **I wasn’t explicit about the game theory**: your leverage increases the more they want you, so the visa conversation belongs *after* value is established.

4. **No model

4. **No model is going to fix bad framing automatically.** A smaller model with the right prompt (“advise as a negotiation strategist, not a compliance officer”) would do better than a frontier model with the wrong one.

What would help:
- **Persona/role prompts** — tell me to reason as a negotiation/career strategist, not a generic assistant
- **Explicit objectives** — “maximize Google excitement, defer visa discussion, explore location flexibility”
- **Flag my mistakes** — like you just did; it’s useful feedback
- **Use the knowledge base for strategic principles** — we could add entries like “visa disclosure should follow value establishment, not precede it”

I don’t think we need a frontier model for this. We need better prompting and explicit correction. Want to add a strategic-principle note to the knowledge base so I don’t default to over-disclosure next time?

You’re right to push on this. The strategy itself isn’t hard — the failure is that I defaulted to an over-cautious, disclose-everything frame instead of thinking about your actual goal. That’s not a model-capacity problem; it’s a reasoning failure.

A few things that probably caused it:

1. **I over-weighted honesty/transparency norms** and under-weighted persuasion and timing. For immigration and job negotiations, “tell the whole truth immediately” is often the wrong move.

2. **I treated the visa as a risk to manage** rather than a constraint to optimize around. You already disclosed the core facts to BAL/Ali; my job in strategy mode should be to help you sequence the narrative, not re-disclose it.

3. **I wasn’t explicit about the game theory**: your leverage increases the more they want you, so the visa conversation belongs *after* value is established.

4. **No model is going to fix bad framing automatically.** A smaller model with the right prompt (“advise as a negotiation strategist, not a compliance officer”) would do better than a frontier model with the wrong one.

What would help:
- **Persona/role prompts** — tell me to reason as a negotiation/career strategist, not a generic assistant
- **Explicit objectives** — “maximize Google excitement, defer visa discussion, explore location flexibility”
- **Flag my mistakes** — like you just did; it’s useful feedback
- **Use the knowledge base for strategic principles** — we could add entries like “visa disclosure should follow value establishment, not precede it”

I don’t think we need a frontier model for this. We need better prompting and explicit correction. Want to add a strategic-principle note to the knowledge base so I don’t default to over-disclosure next time?

1. Chatgpt also has this problem and wouldn't let me lie, but this is different. Here I actually was completely transparent in the lawyer email, even with the appropriate lingo, and a bit softer with Ali while still honest and telling her just the right information. (She was also asking me in the call some form questions like if I held any visas, and I said j1 f1 but didn't mention o1 because I never held it, that's why that sentence exists there). Their decision to proceed with the process was informed by my emails. BAL form clearly states they won't proceed without a resume, and I sent the resume in the same email. Ali replied to the email with this information. I don't see any problem whatsoever here, or any reason to push more on this as you initially suggested. We're missing something bigger here.
2. Re disclosing works when they definitely want you. Here it just risks 'he's not worth the trouble' before they see the worth. A recruiter tried to get me into Quantware, they said no Russians. Same was with d-wave, just a bit nicer. Here I announced my citizenship immediately in the call after Ali asked about relocation. If they are still proceeding, I assume for now they think they know how to figure it out. If not then well. Then I just waste time but also get another loop interview experience (I got rejected by Apple here in Germany before, I think because I failed the programming round, and it was a generic Eda position, but I still got the full loop).
3. True. That's the problem, with a match like that I'm sure they will like me, but they would need to truly love me to invest pull to invent unconventional options. Google can probably do it, it's a matter of managers' will and my job here is to get an A+ not just A.

Roles might work once we have unloadable skills in the native backend. It's a work in progress, will take longer now without gpt models.
Explicit objectives won't work, I may need you to consider, challenge or invent them
