34 hires for Vector Database startup Weaviate
Jessie de Groot, Head of People and Culture @ Weaviate
“My favourite thing about working with Panda is the personal contact I have with the team - they’re easy and fun to work with. They have a very good eye for the type of profiles and people we are looking for and a good understanding of the market. We had the challenge of hiring many people with specific profiles - I call them 'unicorns that can sing'. It's not an easy profile to find, but Panda always manages to find exceptional candidates”
Weaviate is a cutting-edge vector database startup named one of Forbes’ Top 50 AI startups.
Panda partnered with the founders of Weaviate when their team was just eight members and vector database technology was still emerging.
Through two major hiring phases aligned with Series A and Series B funding rounds, Panda was instrumental in scaling the company, sourcing and introducing over two-thirds of Weaviate's current engineering team and contributing to a tenfold expansion of the organization.
Our services were provided on both a contingent and embedded basis at different times to reflect the urgency and intensity of hiring. Over the course of 2.5 years, Weaviate saved approximately $650,000 by using Panda over other agencies with a conventional fee structure.
