About us

We're solving AI's hardest problem: alignment.

Encord is the data layer for Physical AI and enterprise, serving as core infrastructure for 300+ of the world's leading AI teams, including Woven by Toyota, Hitachi, Skydio, AbbVie and Dyna, Walden and Agility Robotics. From autonomous vehicles and robotics to sports and healthcare, we're solving AI's hardest problem: turning complex, real-world data into production-ready intelligent systems.

We're a team of founders, scientists, quants, researchers, and former Olympians, who’ve helped build some of the most successful companies in Silicon Valley, and alumni of MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley, Oxford, Cambridge, and Imperial. We’ve raised $110M from legendary technology investors, early backers of companies like Databricks, ElevenLabs and Vercel, and we’re growing at an extraordinary pace.

We're looking for exceptional people who want to help build a category-defining company, operating with high urgency and taking real ownership to help shape the future of AI.

The Role

You’ll be the driving force behind Encord’s growth, building out our sourcing motion and leading a top team of Commercial Associates and BDRs. You will be obsessively focused on making sure the leading AI teams – from exciting growth-stage startups to F500 organizations – know how Encord can help them bring their AI applications to market, and why they should choose to work with us.

The majority of your time will be spent on:

Owning and building out our pipe generation machine. You will work closely with our Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success leadership as well as Encord’s co-founders to take our outbound motion to the next level. You’ll be balancing scaling what's been working with experimenting and finding new growth curves for us to grow on (think new campaigns to run, new messaging to test, new growth hacks to experiment with).

Leading and mentoring top talent. Our Commercial Associate and BDR team is ambitious, hungry to win, and extremely talented. And when they set their mind on a prospect, they rarely struggle to book a meeting. You’ll work with the team on product and sales enablement, consistent coaching, and growth-path support, ensuring we keep retaining, developing, and scaling the team as we grow.

We have big goals, and you’ll have the autonomy to build the engine and team to continue to achieve our targets.

Who we're looking for

You’re ambitious, driven, and make up for any gaps in experience with intelligence, grit, and a growth mindset. You have natural hustle, build relationships easily, and thrive on lofty goals.

You want high impact and fast pace — slow bores you.
