For the past 30 years, the user experience as we know it has been anchored to a typographic paradigm — predefined navigation trees of pages, sections, and menus — established in the Nineties when the web was born.
As the way people get informed, entertained, and shop evolves, traditional websites and interfaces are losing relevance, and the tools available limit the creative evolution of digital experiences.
Callimacus was born from the conviction that the whole web experience can and should be reinvented.
So we built the engine for a different kind of digital experience.
Callimacus is a multi-agentic platform that plugs into a company's existing stack and reads multi-dimensional signals to understand what a visitor wants in the moment.
Callimacus was founded in **** with the early backing of Brunello Cucinelli — one of our first investors, and now one of our customers.
We launched in January **** to strong organic interest from enterprise customers, and recently raised from Salesforce Ventures the largest AI investment they have made in Italy, and one of their most significant in Europe.
We are a small, product-focused, founder-led team.
We work on hard problems that haven't been solved before — by us or anyone else — and the people who join now get to solve them.
We move fast, with high agency and strong ownership.
What you'll build You'll be our first talent hire, at the moment the company needs to grow fastest.
We're hiring across engineering and beyond, the founders hold a very high bar,



and your job is to build the machine around that bar — so that hiring becomes a durable strength of the company rather than a tax on it.
Own hiring end to end.
Sourcing, pipeline, process, and closing — for engineering and every other role.
The founders remain the hiring bar; Job posts, careers page, events, and the story of why exceptional people join Callimacus.
Design the interview process.
Structured, fast, and fair — and train the team to interview well, calibrate, and decide quickly.
Own the candidate experience.
Every candidate should leave with a higher opinion of us, hired or not.
Onboarding that ramps people fast, and the essential people operations a growing team needs.
We hire people who get the job done and care about the end result — the product, the experience, the people using it.
You don't wait to be told what to do; You light up at hard problems and are creative at finding solutions.
You're someone others can count on.
Full-cycle recruiting experience, ideally in-house at a startup or scale-up, hiring technical roles.
Where you might be strong We're early, and nobody is strong in all of these — we don't expect you to be.
Depth in two or three, plus curiosity about the rest, is what wins.
If that's you,



apply even if you don't tick every box.

A product that will light you up.
You'll work at the frontier of what AI can do today, on problems nobody has solved before — which means most weeks you'll be reasoning from first principles rather than looking up how it's done.
An exceptional opportunity for growth.
Top-of-the-Italian-market salary and equity.
You'll own a real piece of what you're building, aligning your growth with the company's long-term success.
Gym, mental health, museums, courses, travel — whatever actually makes your life better.
Genuinely good food all day.
High-quality, restaurant-level meals, including breakfast, lunch, and all-day snacks.
For the next year we have decided to be in-person first.
And we don't work by tickets: priorities get redefined often, sometimes mid-week, and you'll need to be comfortable with that.
If you're set on remote or on a settled roadmap, this isn't your role.
If you want to be in the room while the platform takes shape, we'd like to meet you.
