Hi, I'm David!

‍

I’m an SF-based founder building Endorsed.ai, helping recruitment software companies easily add AI to their products with a few lines of code.

I’ve been building HR startups and professional matchmaking tools for the last 8 years.

I previously founded a freelance marketplace called Sixty, which served 3,000 clients across 72 service verticals, and was backed by Y Combinator. I was the second employee at Laskie, a recruitment platform acquired by X (and is now X Hiring), where I helped take operations from 0 → 1. Then I led teams at Braintrust, the world's largest decentralized talent network (backed by Tiger Global), building products and matchmaking algorithms to help companies hire talent, and talent find jobs.
‍
I'm also a member of OrangeDAO, helping invest in Web3 founders.

About

Bridge was founded by David Head to help venture-backed startups succeed using no-code tools: from scaling on them to migrating away from them.

While there's currently a great enthusiasm for the no-code tool, the practicalities of using them has not been as much a part of the discussion as it should be. There also are little-to-no strategic and tactical resources available for using them in the context of a venture-backed startup.

As a no-code tool user since 2013, David has experienced both their advantages and limitations of many times over. Most notably at Sixty, the Y Combinator-backed freelance marketplace startup he co-founded, as well as Lambda School, where he was a Data Engineer.
