About Pinecone
Pinecone is on a mission to build the search and database technology to power AI applications for the next decade and beyond. Our fully managed vector database makes it easy to add vector search to AI applications. Since creating the “vector database” category, demand has grown incredibly fast, and it shows in our user base. We are a distributed team with clusters in New York, San Francisco, Tel Aviv, and Manchester.
You will be part of a world-class team from companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Databricks, and Splunk. The company emerged from stealth in January 2021 with $10M in seed funding — led by the same legendary investor as Snowflake — followed by $28M in Series A funding announced in March 2022 and $100M in Series B funding in April 2023.
