Why work at Lassie
- Early‑stage impact: Join a lean, ambitious team (<25 people) backed by top‑tier investors (a16z) and already generating meaningful revenue. Every hire is a founding‑level contributor.
- Hard, unsolved problems: Lassie is pushing the boundary on autonomous systems for SMBs – combining AI, integrations, and operations in a single product.
- Culture: The company values craft, rigor of thought, direct communication, and shared optimism about the future. lassie.ai/company
- Work policy: Not explicitly stated, but the team is concentrated in San Francisco (HQ) with additional presence in India and the Netherlands; given the early stage, a strong in‑person culture is likely.
- Open roles (as of mid‑2026): Founding Growth Lead (GTM), Founding Recruiter. linkedin.com
