8,379 live roles at 369 US startups that closed a funding round in the last 180 days — read daily from each company's own hiring system, so every opening is real, current, and attached to fresh money.
Most job boards tell you a company is hiring. This one tells you why it is hiring right now: each role carries the round, the amount raised, how many days ago the money landed and who led it — the context that separates a growing company from one quietly running out of runway.
A closed round is the highest-agency moment in a company's life. The money was raised for exactly one purpose — growth — and the company now has no real choice but to spend it that way. Nobody wires millions so a team can stay the same size. The hiring plan is usually written into the pitch that raised the round, which makes headcount the first thing the new money buys.
This is not just a story. Recruiting-industry analyses find that startups raising Seed through Series B rounds typically grow headcount 30–60% within six months of the round. A company that just raised is not deciding whether to hire — it is deciding how fast it can.
For a candidate, that changes the odds twice over. The roles exist because there is fresh budget behind them, not because a manager is fishing for resumes. And the runway question — the thing that makes startup offers feel risky — has just been answered in public, with a number, a date and the names of the investors who wrote the checks.
Timing studies of hiring pipelines keep finding the same thing: the practical application window is the first day or two after a role goes up, because recruiters work applications roughly in the order they arrive and shortlists form early.

The funding announcement comes first; the hiring wave follows it. If you hear about the round the day it lands, you are applying to those roles before most people know the company has money — before the crowd exists.
Pre-Seed through pre-IPO. The day a round is announced, the company enters the hiring universe with its round, amount, date and lead investors attached.
Roles are read straight from each company's own hiring system — the feed behind its careers page — and re-checked every day. A role that disappears there disappears here.

Every role is read from the hiring company's own applicant tracking system — the same feed that powers its careers page — and re-checked daily. New openings appear on the next pass after the company posts them, and the funding record attached to each role (round, amount, date, lead investors) is the same data behind the rest of VCBacked.

No. Because roles come from each company's own hiring system rather than scraped aggregators, every opening is checked against that feed daily: the day a company takes a role down, it drops off here too. Only roles still live on the employer's careers page are counted or shown, which is why the totals on this page move every day.
