Culture

1. The founding team is in person in the Bay Area 2+ days each week
2. Our team is comprised of autonomous, creative, dependable, philomathic, and hardworking folks
3. We believe strongly in building a team of the best people and then giving them the resources to continue growth
4. By retaining only the best people, we are able to pay competitive salaries and give generous equity packages, which we will work together to add value to over time
5. Dart has a lot of excited, passionate users that are easy to talk to and learn from
6. There are a number of existing products in this space, but we view that as a good thing: the market clearly needs tools like Dart, there is a lot of demonstrated willingness to pay among prospective users, and most importantly we have a ton of unique perspectives and better features than alternatives
7. We get to dogfood our own product every day, so anyone can get engaged with and up to speed on the product quickly
8. This part of a startup’s lifecycle is the best time to join: the highest expected return comes before the series A but after the founders have taken the early risk (which we already did because we're so excited about the product!)
9. If you want to work closely with founders, this is your chance—we have an experienced founding team that loves collaboration and mentorship
10. Set yourself up to be a founder going forward, if you want to: we will teach you the ropes/angel invest in you/give you the best intros/help you get into YC when and if you want to go off on your own

Product and Company

Dart is project management powered by AI. Built in partnership with hundreds of founders and their startups, Dart typically saves teams a third of their project management time by learning their patterns and automating away 'work about work.' It's used by growing teams that are iterating quickly across a diverse set of tasks in engineering, design, sales, and more.

We use the newest tech on the frontend and backend, including generative text models, to automate the toil out of project management. Within the Y Combinator community, Dart is known for its incredible product velocity and for being the tool of choice for some famous founders and YC partners.

We've been accelerated by YC and have come out with a lot of traction, momentum, and money that we will use to execute on our wide-ranging vision to be the fastest, easiest, most efficient project management tool out there. This will present a lot of interesting software engineering challenges and a lot of AI/ML hurdles as well. Luckily our user base is willing to help, and there are many opportunities to interact with and learn from our users who are working at some of the hottest startups.

Team

Dart has a comparatively experienced founding team in engineering, VC, and leadership, and you’ll have direct access to the founders to learn and have influence.

The company is still at a very early stage, which represents an incredible opportunity for founding employees! Teammates will have an outsized impact on the future of the company including culture, tech, design, and product direction.

Zack and Milad (founders) are longtime friends from Stanford. They’ve instilled a hardworking but playful culture at Dart—we crank to deliver a great product, support each other, and have a variety of fun activities and traditions on the team.
