eh, it’s a dudebro startup.
they probably don't have any female employees over 30 because they probably consider older employees who may have priorities (e.g. kids, aging parents, non-work hobbies, volunteer commitments) outside the office to be a poor cultural fit.

i remember a letter writer on ask a manager a couple of years ago who was angry because the 30-something non drinking woman he and his team had deliberately pushed out (they were a “close knit team in their twenties who loved craft beer”) had referred to the environment as toxic in her exit interview and he wrote in to Alison whining that she shouldn’t have been there in the first place because she was a poor cultural fit.
