But if you get your foot in the door early enough at the right company, you could end up a millionaire.

We've included employee count for each company. For startups whose employee headcounts we didn't have access to from our own reporting, we consulted Pitchbook, a private equity and venture capital database that tracks information about companies.

The companies on this list are blowing up - some are early-stage, some are more mature, but they're all highly valued and fast-growing. You'll want to get hired before they take off further.
