About HUD

HUD's mission is to build reliable, fair and open infrastructure for AI data. We want data to be valuable for the people who create it and trustworthy for the labs that train on it. Our team is a quickly growing group of researchers, engineers and operators building the economy that shapes what AI will become. Backed by $16M from top VCs and YC (W25), our marketplace and platform are used by startups, Fortune 500 companies and frontier labs.

About the role

We’re always looking for talent across Research, Engineering, GTM, and Operations. If none of the open roles are a fit but you think there’s something you can contribute to HUD, let us know here.

Tell us what you’d like to do and how this would help HUD grow. Please be specific and don’t apply unless you’ve done research on HUD and our work. Remember, this is your chance to pitch us on why we should hire you.
