About us

We are an AI startup that empowers developers to build applications that use natural language as the interface to data. Our open-source frameworkHaystack is used by thousands of developers to build LLM applications. Our LLM platform, deepset Cloud, enables enterprises worldwide to unlock the potential of large language models for their business cases.

We are proud to announce our Series B funding round led by Balderton Capital 🎉. Find out more in our article.

deepset is at the forefront of natural language processing (NLP) and we are on our way to becoming a standard for semantic search. Come join our team and work with tech experts on real-world cases, in a fast-paced and high-impact environment, and shape the NLP space together with us.

At deepset you will find an environment with equal opportunities to grow, share ideas, build relationships, and succeed. We believe every employee is important and generates a direct impact on our team's success.

Our daily meetings, the quarterly in-person "Re.Base", and the social events allow us to work with great synergy. We would like to invite you to visit our life page to learn more about our culture.

Approach to diversity & inclusion

Our approach: We hire the best talent in the NLP space. For us, it does not matter where you come from, where you decide to live, or how you want to live – what matters is your passion for deepset. We offer an inclusive place for everyone that is part of deepset.

Exchange: We encourage the regular exchange of groups in deepset, e.g., parents, women in AI.

Unconscious biases: We remove biases from the hiring and promotion process by having clear criteria and guidelines as well as an interview process with different people from the team.

Micro-habits: We offer everyone regular 1:1 talks, as well as the option to regularly share feedback in the form of a pulse check.

Flexible working at deepset

At deepset, we are a tech company with a more human touch. We’ve been a remote-first, flexible company from day one. Does this mean that our team members barely interact? Quite the opposite! From daily stand-up calls to quarterly in-person events, our team members frequently exchange ideas, collaborate on projects, and even socialize.

Below are our remote-first work principles:

Principle 1: Core Hours Policy for meetings.

Principle 2: Periodic exchange of Ideas and Feedback Sessions.

Principle 3: Quarterly In-person Team Building and Strategy Sessions.

Why us?

Remote-first: You can choose to work from home or any other workspace that suits you. We offer a home office budget for equipment and furniture, and we would be happy to sponsor a co-working spot.

Connect: We have a virtual office, a monthly social budget to reconnect virtually or in person, regular walk and talks with colleagues from other teams, and a flexible travel policy that enables you to meet colleagues in-person when needed.

Re:base: Once every few months we meet in person. We believe it's great to still see each other occasionally IRL. We have good discussions, we do workshops, we brainstorm, we have lunches together, and we have fun. We cover travel expenses for sure.

You are an owner: We offer every employee the opportunity to be enrolled in the employee stock option plan and own a part of the company.

Personal time off: If you want to recharge and travel the world - there are 27 days of paid holidays.

Employee reviews

deepset's employees have anonymously had their say in what they think of the company

Deepset is a great place for parents - you get the support and the flexibility you need. It is all about getting your work done / achieving your goals and not at all a culture of 'presence'.

Fully remote and high flexibility in working hours. Plus, the culture is also very much in tune with the flexibility placing high trust in individuals (e.g. people can and do openly communicate when they need flexibility). Great workplace.
