People & HR, Operations
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
Posted on Oct 15, 2025
About Us:
Gushwork is reinventing how businesses get discovered online. We're an agentic AI startup that helps B2B companies show up in AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity—by building a content engine on websites designed to attract AI visitors alongside human visitors.
We're a US and Bengaluru-based company that's raised over $11M from top-tier global VCs including Lightspeed. While search behavior is rapidly shifting toward AI, most B2B companies are being left behind. We're changing that.
We're at an exciting inflection point—moving fast, solving hard problems, and building technology that's becoming critical infrastructure as AI reshapes how buyers find solutions. If you want to work on challenging problems with a talented team in a high-growth environment, we'd love to meet you.
More about the role below - if you feel it’s a fit, we are excited to meet you!
