I need to hire 100 people in the next 12 months.
@tenex_labs is a rocket ship. Unlike anything i've seen.
Our biggest bottleneck is keeping up hiring with the tidal wave of demand we're seeing.
WTF is Tenex? We're a 15-month-old, NYC-based applied AI consultancy & lab growing 10x YoY. We help F2000 enterprises through the AI transformation journey & incubate new businesses based on our hard-earned lessons from spending each day inside the guts of enterprises.
Tl;dr we're on the frontier, we're building cool shit, and we're having a ton of fun.
