Dust is a fast-growing enterprise AI platform backed by Sequoia, serving customers like Datadog, 1Password, and Cursor. The company is building the infrastructure layer where AI agents collaborate with humans in real work environments. With 70%+ weekly active users and a team of optimists from Stripe, OpenAI, and Stanford, Dust is scaling rapidly across offices in Paris, London, New York, and San Francisco. As People and Workplace Experience Manager, you will shape how employees experience Dust from day one through their entire journey. You'll own the complete onboarding experience across all locations, ensuring new joiners have everything they need to contribute immediately. You'll build and run team rituals, company offsites, and cultural moments that foster connection across time zones and offices. You'll establish feedback loops through surveys and conversations to understand employee experience, then translate insights into concrete improvements. You'll define and track meaningful metrics that guide decision-making. You'll also manage the physical workspace—ensuring offices are safe, welcoming, and functional while working with vendors, budgets, and the Paris office manager on day-to-day operations. This role requires balancing consistency across the company with local adaptation. You'll partner closely with People Operations, IT, Finance, Legal, and leadership. You'll scale the employee experience thoughtfully as Dust grows, building simple, scalable processes without introducing bureaucracy. Dust values an office-first culture where the energy and proximity drive fast decisions and breakthrough collaboration. The company extends trust to strong judgment—if working from home makes sense for your work that day, you make that call.
