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.

  • At least 3 years of technical recruiting experience

  • Familiarity with AI/ML/Research talent market

  • In-person at our SF HQ

  • Bonus: Experience as a founding recruiter

About Sieve

Sieve is the only AI research lab exclusively focused on video data.

Video already makes up 80% of internet traffic and has become the dominant medium driving creativity, communication, gaming, AR/VR, and robotics. Unlocking the ability to truly model video is the key to breakthroughs across all of these domains but progress has been bottlenecked by one thing: high-quality training data. That’s where Sieve comes in.

We bring together exabyte-scale video infrastructure, novel video understanding techniques, and dozens of diverse data sources to create datasets that push the frontier of video modeling. This unique combination allows us to deliver data with unmatched precision, quality, and speed which has earned the trust of frontier AI labs, Fortune 100 companies, and fast-growing generative AI startups.
