GTM Recruiter

GTM Recruiter

Exa is building a search engine for the AI era. Our Search API currently powers Agents, Fortune 500s and AI labs as we transform an industry that hasn't been disrupted since the 90s. We're a largely SF-based team of ~100 from Harvard, MIT, Meta, Google Research, ex-founders & dropouts alike.

We are rapidly building the most intelligent search engine in history. We're high agency, low-ego, and united by the feeling that this is one of the last problems worth getting right.

Now, we're looking for a GTM Recruiter to help build our Exa family.

This isn't a standard recruiting jobyou'll be recruiting in the age of AI, using in-house agentic systems built on top of our own search engine to supercharge the process. You'll not only help build our early, world-class GTM team, but also design the recruiting systems that let us scale rapidly.

• Build and optimize recruiting systems and workflows using Exa's in-house agentic search tools
• Experiment with creative sourcing strategies to stand out in the competitive SF startup market
