Its a lot of fun that I am starting a company from scratch and get to hire everyone and make all the rules... For example I am making sure that every single person I hire is comfortable with using linux and open-source tools, and writing documents in latex and markdown. Even management. It is pretty sweet!
@freemo The LaTeX requirement will definitely thin the herd! (I really like LaTeX right up until I need to collaborate with someone that doesn’t use it)
@Gbudd So the latext requirement is a bit looser than that.. its something like this:
"Must be expiernced in either markdown or latext and willing to learn latex and use it on a daily basis"
So we are ok if they just know markdown but if thats the case they still need to be eager learners.
And I agree most latex noobs are very unpleasant to work with. I myself am not a latext expert. I mostly know how to get around well enough for a little above a basic level. Most of the fancy stuff I've done has just been integrating stuff from online snippets or libraries.
So ill answer both.

We are a company that has a product thatis very math heavy (or at least will once we release it). So there is a need for a lot of math. Sadly that means latex if you also want to be text-based (as in can use git on it to diff) and open-source, which are also important things.

Oh thats easy: https://www.overleaf.com/
Its basically google docs like setup but specifically for latex.
