Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
The Growth Associate will source and convert domain experts into active contributors for an AI research lab's data network. Responsibilities include managing a domain end-to-end, conducting high-volume outreach, and building partnerships with specialized firms.
Candidates must have 2–4 years of experience in expert network recruiting, staffing, or B2B SDR roles. Proficiency in English and the ability to work evening IST hours for US timezone overlap are required.
Sieve is an AI research lab building the world's highest-quality multimodal datasets — spanning video, audio, images, text, and 3D. We combine exabyte-scale data infrastructure, novel multimodal understanding techniques, and dozens of proprietary data sources to develop datasets that push the frontier of foundation models. Video alone makes up 80% of internet traffic, and across modalities, data has become the enabling medium powering creativity, communication, gaming, AR/VR, and robotics. Sieve exists to solve the biggest bottleneck in the growth of these applications: high-quality training data.
We've partnered with the world's top AI labs and did $XXM last quarter alone, as a team of just ~25 people. We also raised our Series A from Tier 1 firms such as Matrix Partners, Swift Ventures, Y Combinator, and AI Grant.
We're hiring 1–2 Growth Associates to help scale our expert network. Each Associate owns one domain end-to-end: finding experts, getting them on calls, converting them into active contributors, and opening doors to domain-specific firms.
This is a high-volume, high-ownership sourcing role. You'll spend most of your day on LinkedIn and on calls with US-based professionals.
Source experts directly on LinkedIn — identify and reach out to 1000–4000 qualified domain experts per week through personalized, manual outreach
Convert on calls — get qualified prospects on the phone, pitch the opportunity, handle objections, and walk them through onboarding
Own a domain — become fluent in one vertical (e.g., CAD/architecture, VFX/3D, life sciences software), including the tools, job titles, and communities where experts live
Build firm partnerships — secure intros and working relationships with domain-specific firms and studios in the US and existing markets (boutique studios and specialist firms — not BPOs or staffing agencies)
Support marketing and outbound — assist with campaigns and outbound motions for human data collection more broadly
Maintain pipeline hygiene — track every prospect through the CRM from first touch to activation; report weekly on funnel metrics
100 experts activated per month (completed onboarding + first paid task) — not just signups
15-20 Qualified calls booked per week
30/60-day retention of experts you bring in
Qualified firm intros converted to active partnerships
2–4 years in expert network recruiting (GLG, AlphaSights, etc.), US-facing recruiting/staffing, or B2B SDR work
Excellent spoken and written English; comfortable cold-calling senior US professionals
Willing to work evening IST hours for consistent US timezone overlap
Organized, self-directed, and comfortable being measured on outcomes
Familiarity with any of our target domains (CAD, 3D, VFX, video/audio production, scientific tooling)
Experience with Sales Navigator, Apollo/Clay, or similar outbound tooling
