Hiring is broken. 46% of new hires fail or quit in 18 months and 72% of candidates say that the recruitment process harms their mental health. New tools in the market are making the problem worse. AI-written job descriptions and CVs and secret interview co-pilots are not the answer. It’s creating an AI arms race where everyone loses. We believe there is a better way, and that’s why we’re building Dex. We've been backed by a16z speedrun and Concept ventures and are now building out a small but might team.

In an ideal world, you’ll have a broad range of skills across AI and prompt engineering, backend engineering (we’re using Go), and data engineering, with a keen eye for what makes a great product experience. We know this is a wide range of skills and don’t expect you to have all of them, so we love hearing about where you have particularly deep expertise or interest. This is a place for extremely talented, kind people that want to hustle and take a shot at a life-changing outcome.

As an early employee you’ll have access and insight into as much of the wider business as you want, from sales to growth, ops, fundraising and anything else you are interested in. This kind of environment is well-suited for individuals that may want to found their own start-up in the future and are looking to gain exposure to what early-stage start-ups are like. It won’t be easy. There will be jobs that will ask less of you and pay you more. What we can offer is a high trust, pace and accountability environment, with colleagues that want you to succeed.
