Job Description

ABOUT SUNSET

At its core, Sunset was founded to help founders. We started by supporting startups through shutting down, but we've since expanded into unlocking a new revenue stream for all types of businesses.

In 2025, we earned a secret: the data every company generates on a daily basis (collaboration, communication, building) is some of the most valuable training data in the world. Public and synthetic can only get frontier models so far, so the next generation of model progression depends on real, proprietary data grounded in how actual businesses operate. We're a primary source of it, partnering directly with the frontier AI labs building what's next.

WHY JOIN SUNSET NOW:

- We've scaled from $0 to a $XXM run rate in a matter of months

- We've raised from top-tier investors (Floodgate, Afore, Ludlow, Hustle Fund, etc.)

- We're small enough that you'll carry outsized responsibility and grow as fast as the company does

- You'll partner and build for the fastest and most important companies in the world

- You'll be a part of building a massive, category-defining business from the ground floor

- You’re empathetic as these are founders navigating one of the hardest moments in their company's life
