Cursor to Hire 200 in Asia-Pacific in Next Six Months

Cursor plans to hire 200 employees across Asia-Pacific in the next six months mostly in sales customer success and solutions engineering roles. Asia-Pacific headquarters opened by Simon Green a longtime APAC tech executive most recently at Palo Alto Networks. Cursor is opening a London office in July with smaller European offices to follow. In late April SpaceX struck a deal with Cursor giving the rocket company an option to acquire the startup for $60 billion later this year or to pay $10 billion for ongoing work between the two companies. Cursor CEO Michael Truell said the team was excited to partner with SpaceX to scale its Composer model.
