Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

3 transfer filings in the last year, covering 3 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

  • Our product operates in a noisy, adversarial, fast-moving threat landscape.
  • You will make legible what is working, where our agents are succeeding or failing, how customers are experiencing value, and how the business should price, package, and prioritize its work.

Responsibilities

  • Own our analytical data pipeline and infrastructure across product, business, and AI performance data.
  • Build and own the long-term roadmap for data infrastructure, analytics, and applied data science at Outtake.

  • Build data quality checks, documentation, and metric definitions that make our data trustworthy and easy for others to use.
  • Experience building reliable data pipelines, data models, semantic layers, or internal analytics infrastructure.
  • We trust adults to manage energy, not clock time.

Requirements

  • Experience working with modern AI eval frameworks, model performance measurement, LLM observability, or similar systems.
  • Strong product judgment and the ability to turn ambiguous business or product questions into clear analytical approaches.
  • Comfort working cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Finance, and GTM stakeholders.
  • The ability to communicate complex analyses clearly, including the tradeoffs, caveats, and recommendations that matter.

Nice to have

  • experience as an early data hire or founding team member in a high-growth startup.
  • experience working with Langfuse, Braintrust, Arize, Phoenix, OpenTelemetry, or similar AI observability/eval tooling.

  • become the trust layer of the modern internet.
  • And we intend to do it with a lean, dense, exceptionally talented team.
