About the job

At Outset, we've revolutionized the research landscape with our innovative AI-driven user interview solutions.

Our cutting-edge technology is trusted by global brands such as Hubspot, Microsoft, Uber, and Nestle, enabling them to gain profound qualitative insights about their users with unmatched speed and efficiency.

The research sector is a vast ($140B and expanding) domain ripe for transformation. Current industry players are often slow, outdated, and encumbered by costly services—this is where we see our potential.

Proudly supported by renowned Silicon Valley investors, Outset successfully raised $30M in a Series B funding round in December 2025—just months after our Series A—led by Radical Ventures with contributions from M12 (Microsoft’s venture arm), 8VC, Y Combinator, and Adverb Ventures.

Following a breakout year, our business has surged by 8x as enterprise clients across various sectors embrace our category-defining AI-moderated research as the new benchmark for understanding user behavior.
