GTM Sourcer

Outset invented a better way to do research: AI-powered user interviews.

Global brands like Hubspot, Microsoft, Uber and Nestle use Outset to achieve deeper, qualitative insights about their users at unprecedented speed and scale.

The research industry is massive (>$140B and growing) and ripe for disruption. Incumbents are outdated, slow, and burdened by high-cost services. That's our opportunity.

Outset is backed by top Silicon Valley investors and raised a $30M Series B in December 2025—less than six months after our Series A—led by Radical Ventures with participation from M12 (Microsoft’s venture arm), 8VC, Y Combinator, and Adverb Ventures.

The raise follows a breakout year, with our business growing 8x as enterprise customers across industries adopt our category, AI‑moderated research, as the new standard for understanding people.

We’re a tight-knit team serving some of the world’s largest enterprises.

We’re looking for a strategic, resourceful GTM Sourcer to build strong, diverse talent pipelines for our go-to-market organization. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys finding hard to reach talent, turning market insight into hiring strategy, and operating with urgency in a fast-growing startup environment. You’ll partner closely with recruiters and hiring managers to help shape the teams that drive our next stage of growth.
