About the role

A model is only as good as the people teaching it. Our TasteMakers are those people, and the best ones are rare and hard to find.

You’ll own figuring out how to find them. Working directly with our Product Leads, you’ll map creative talent markets, find untapped communities, and test new ways to reach exceptional people. Then you’ll turn what works into a repeatable engine.

Part growth strategist, part researcher, part SDR, part operator.

Types of problems you’d work on

Map where exceptional creative talent lives, and how to reach people who aren’t looking

Build sourcing strategies from scratch for our hardest-to-fill roles

Test platforms, tools, messaging and outreach to find what actually works

Build targeted lists and outreach that people actually respond to

Move TasteMakers from first contact to completed assessment, fast

Turn experiments into playbooks, automations and workflows so every new search starts ahead of the last

Track channel performance and downstream quality, and double down on what works

What matters to us

Outbound experience: 1 - 2 years in sourcing, growth, sales development or a similar outbound-heavy role. You’ve worked toward aggressive targets and know how to diagnose what’s not working

Research instincts: you’re curious and resourceful, and good at finding what isn’t obvious

Strategic thinking: you don’t just run a playbook. You question assumptions, spot patterns and test hypotheses

High urgency: you move fast, follow up faster, and don’t let things sit

Startup DNA: you start from a problem, not instructions. No such thing as ‘not in scope’. You’ll be given a lot of room to run

Team player: you work well across product, ops, design and research, and bring people along

AI forward: you use AI tools to research, automate the repetitive work and operate faster

Bonus points

You’re genuinely into creative work and have an eye for what’s great

You’ve built sourcing or growth strategies for niche, hard-to-reach audiences

Background in human data, recruiting, marketplaces or creative industries
