Hurren & Hope helps high-growth AI and SaaS companies across San Francisco and the Bay Area hire software engineering, AI, product, sales and operations talent. We are a London-headquartered consultancy with the Bay Area as one of our core focus markets — and we work as consultants, not transactional CV-senders.
What we recruit for in San Francisco

- Product — product managers and product leadership, including AI products.
- Sales — founding AEs, sales leadership and RevOps for SaaS go-to-market.
