About the role

About Us

Sieve is the only AI research lab exclusively focused on video data. We combine exabyte-scale video infrastructure, novel video understanding techniques, and dozens of data sources to develop datasets that push the frontier of video modeling. Video makes up 80% of internet traffic and has become the enabling digital medium powering creativity, communication, gaming, AR/VR, and robotics. Sieve exists to solve the biggest bottleneck in growth of these applications: high-quality training data.

We've partnered with top AI labs and did $XXM last quarter alone, as a team of just 15 people. We also raised our Series A last year from Tier 1 firms such as Matrix Partners, Swift Ventures, Y Combinator, and AI Grant.

About the Role

As our first recruiter at Sieve, you'll build our recruiting function from the ground up and hire across engineering and our product operations org. This is a high-ownership role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast without sacrificing quality, and wants to be directly responsible for scaling a high-growth startup.

No day will look the same - ideal candidates will bounce around between sourcing candidates, taking screen calls, running recruiting events, and anything else that’s needed to build the most talent dense organization.

  • In-person at our SF HQ
