About Dust

We're creating a new AI operating system that has the potential to change the way companies operate . Our mission at Dust is to transform how work gets done by letting any team and employee shape the exact agents they need to accelerate their jobs.

With 70%+ weekly active users, people stick with Dust as much as they do with Slack and Notion. We already are a core part of their jobs.

We are at an exciting stage of our journey. We've raised our Series A, expanded in the US, and hit the $1m and $2m ARR milestones in 2024; we aim to x5 our growth by the end of 2025.

Dust is a Sequoia-backed company with an experienced and determined team of optimists (coming from companies like Stripe or OpenAI) that like to focus on users, getting great things done by shipping fast, and doesn't take itself too seriously while doing so.

TL;DR

We're looking for a hands-on Talent Acquisition Specialist - Tech to drive Dust's ambitious hiring goals with a focus on operational excellence and execution. As our first dedicated recruiting hire, you'll own full-cycle recruitment, build efficient processes, and help us scale from 50 to 100+ people while maintaining our high talent bar.

Location

We're prioritizing building our team with an in-person culture at our offices in Paris and San Francisco, valuing the magic that happens when talented people work closely together.

Why Dust

We're not building yet another enterprise SaaS tool. We're creating an AI OS that will fundamentally change how companies operate. We believe existing AI models are powerful enough to have a tremendous impact on the world (and will keep getting better) - the key is building the infrastructure so that they have context and explore the best interfaces for humans to interact with them.

We have the unique opportunity to explore and shape the way humans interact with machines while working on a product we use ourselves every day.

If you're excited about crafting products that reinvent B2B software and want to join a team that combines the best of startup culture with the backing of top-tier investors, we'd love to talk.

Even if you don't check every box in our requirements, we encourage you to apply. We value diverse perspectives and backgrounds, and we're more interested in your potential and passion than a perfect match to our checklist.
